Altair Anjilo N. de Almeida

I regularly visit Altair for Shiatsu massage to work out tension accumulated from my job as a cameraman. I find it hard to relax and a regular session helps both my body and mind. I've seen Altair for both Acupuncture and Shiatsu and his vast knowledge is invaluable when choosing the right treatment to suit your specific need. I would highly recommend Altair as an experienced skilled practitioner and as a really genuine guy.

When I was 7 I had a lobe of my left lung removed because of Bronchiectasis- a condition where excess phlegm is continually created, which causes me to continually cough up phlegm. Due to this condition I was more prone to lung and chest infections than most people. My doctor would prescribe antibiotics each time, which resulted in me feeling 'wiped out, depressed and weepy' for about a month.I first saw Altair for Acupuncture in September, several years ago when I had had 7 courses of antibiotics for chest infections, in 7 months. I was in a desperate state. After my Acupuncture treatment I didn't have another chest infection until February, 6 months later. When I saw my doctor, he said it was just 'coincidence' that the bugs didn't get me, nothing to do with Acupuncture. I know different now. It was because my immune system had been greatly improved through Altair's treatment and advice. He has helped me immensely to do simple mental and physical exercises that have enabled me to become more confident in myself. My daughter has often remarked how well I cope with stresses, that in the past would have created havoc with my health. Through his advice my diet etc has improved, and I know what to avoid which in the past would have weakened my health. I would highly recommend Altair for his great experience in the health field, and his ability to help people across the board, but especially those like me with serious chronic health problems.Audrey Bevan, House wife, Worcester

Altair is a very special individual.TAI CHI / CHI GONGFirstly I attended his Tai Chi and Chi Gong classes every Tuesday night which I still attend religiously. I was hooked with this discipline right from the start as Altair makes the sessions so much fun and very inclusive. Every session he adjusts the exercises to suit the mood and the individuals so the first hour long Chi Gong part races along so quickly. He always includes about 15 minutes of group meditation where he often teaches us a few of his spiritual tricks or recent disciplines. I have been learning the Tai Chi form (which we do in the second hour) for about 9 months now and I really enjoy the movement and concentration.ACUPUNCHUREI have also been seeing Altair privately for around 8 months where he has been treating me using acupuncture and Angelic Reiki. These sessions have had a tremendous effect on my well being and I have felt fully supported by Altair through the process. He has also recommended many ways I can improve my lifestyle along with suggesting many fascinating books to read. His approach also deals with the power of the mind and positive thinking.BIODANZABoth me and my wife have attended Biodanza classes and I am very keen to continue with the programme. Even though the Biodanza classes are quite challenging, Altair makes the process fun and rewarding on a deep level. Altair's music choice is brilliant too.I would recommend Altair to anyone who thinks they need to change their lifestyle and change the way they think. He truly is an inspirationSimon Dawes
