Kathryn Painter, AMCSHP, AMCSHT, EFTCC, EFTADV, Reiki Master
Kathryn first became interested in and started her healing training when she was just 9 years old. She was taken on and mentored in the art of spiritual healing by her first teacher Ruby, Violet, Rose (yes that was her real name). Since that time and over the proceeding years, Kathryn has studied many different healing modalities, including Metaphysics, Reiki, Vibrational Healing, EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique), Crystal Bowl Healing, Sound Healing, Colour Healing and Aurora Magnetic Crystal Sound Healing.
After having spent many years in the commercial sector Kathryn was again drawn back to her love of healing after a “wake up call” from the Universe in the 1990s. It was also around this time when she met Jan Linch and began studying Colour and then Aurora Magnetic Crystal Sound Healing with her.
A love of and strong belief in Angels since childhood helped manifest her own healing sanctuary three years ago which is dedicated to and called ~ ”The Sanctuary of Angels” where she runs her healing and teaching practice. It is a soothing haven of peace, calm and tranquillity in a magical setting. The Sanctuary is surrounded by beautiful cherry orchards and fields full of wildlife, in an area of outstanding natural beauty and just happens to be on a ley line, with wonderful views across the countryside to the sea beyond. Truly a “Little piece of Heaven right here on Earth” - where healing begins naturally. It is a place where you can take time out for yourself to unwind, relax and de-stress. Come and heal with the Angels and let their loving energies surround and nurture you during your healing process. For a private healing or reading session, please contact Kathryn on info@aurora-therapies.co.uk to make an appointment.
Kathryn’s hunger for research and new scientific evidence in the field of vibrational therapy means she is able to share and utilise what she has learned with her clients and students on a regular basis ~ which she does with great passion and enthusiasm.
Kathryn is also in the process of collecting case studies and feedback from Aurora students, practitioners, teachers and clients for research into her forthcoming book on the OM tuning fork. Should you have any interesting feedback from using your Aurora OM Tuning Fork that you would like to share with others, please write to Kathryn at info@aurora-therapies.co.uk or at the Head Office address on the “Contact Us” page. Kathryn is also in the process of building a Healing Labyrinth (now finished) and Fairy Grove.
Client’s and students’ testimonials
My visit to Kathryn for treatment was a most enlightening experience. She made me feel very welcome and as if time had been put aside only for me on that day. She is warm, caring and kind. The treatments which I had were relaxing, calming and replenishing. I felt totally at peace, filled with an intense sensation of warmth and love. The amazing sounds and techniques that she used were not like any other treatments that I have personally experienced. I have learned a great deal from her just in one visit, and my own holistic practice has been enhanced one hundred percent since meeting with her and gaining the knowledge which Aurora therapies give.
Since attending all three parts of the aurora courses my life has had the most positive changes I have ever experienced. To know and understand how colour, sound and magnetism are inter-related and how we unwittingly use them in our every day lives is truly amazing. The courses showed me the significance of colour in our lives and the importance of balanced chakras. It also showed me how four complementary therapies came together to create very powerful healing tools – colour, sound, magnets and crystals.
Aurora has helped me to understand sound in a way that I could not have previously perceived. How our whole beings resonate and ‘all that is’ is vibrating at different rates and frequencies, was something I had only a tiny concept of. Bringing it together with colour and the understanding of our own magnetic energy fields around our bodies is truly wonderful. Also, understanding the structure of our planet and how everything is inter-related, and realizing what is truly meant by our bodies being in harmony, has changed my life so much, bringing clarity and focus to my life and enhancing all of the therapies that I practice as a holistic therapist.

I have a blood condition that is, like most conditions, exacerbated by stress. For the past year I have been enjoying regular Aurora treatments from Kathryn and have seen a positive change in my blood counts and general well being. The waves of healing sound that wash through me during the crystal bowl sessions left me feeling completely relaxed and rejuvenated. Just recently we have been working with the full set of Aurora Double Vibrational tuning forks and accompanying sprays on each of my chakras, which has been equally powerful and enjoyable. Kathryn instinctively knows which chakras need more attention and I can completely relax knowing I’m in very capable, healing hands. Although, just entering Kathryn’s sanctuary is a healing experience in itself, with its beautiful views of the Kent countryside and calm, comfortable interior.Last year I attended an Om Tuning Fork training day which was informative and enjoyable. Kathryn prepared intensive course notes so that we could enjoy the day and use the Om without missing any vital information. I purchased my own Om and now use it regularly on myself, clients family and friends ~ I wouldn’t be without it! Thank you Kathryn xx

I have received treatments from and attended courses by Kathryn. She is professional, kind, honest and sincere in all of her many skills. I would not hesitate to recommend her. During my treatments with Kathryn I have been allowed to feel safe and secure, mainly by the environment but also by Kathryn’s ability to “give what is needed”. I found the crystal sound bowls created a feeling of bliss; this was accompanied by visualisations of intense, yet gentle, colours. The strength of the colours I could feel washing through/over me. Many benefits of this treatment are still working within me, helping me towards personal harmony.Trevor Hills (Massage, Reflexology, Craniosacral Therapy)

Dear Mrs Painter. My wife and I would like to thank you most sincerely for the range of treatments you so kindly gave us on the occasion of our last visit. Your facilities are superb and we were both impressed with the Crystal bowl therapy. Indeed if that were available nightly it most certainly would help with sleeping disorders.On a more physical / practical level we have both experienced the benefits of the Magnets and the OM Tuning fork; the latter being used frequently at home for the aches and pains that beset us oldies. Keep up the good work. We wish you every success with Aurora Therapies – it must be very satisfying to know that you can help people like this. Once again our heartfelt thanks. Yours very sincerely.

I have enjoyed several of Kathryn's Crystal Bowl Treatments, both as an individual session and as part of her Ladies Relaxation Mornings. Lying on the treatment bed, while being bathed in pure sound is a truly remarkable experience. It is extremely relaxing and yet energising at the same time. As each bowl is played, it feels as if the sound frequency is washing over you, and through you, until every cell is vibrating. As Kathryn moves from bowl to bowl, different areas of my body respond, giving a wonderful tingling sensation and from time to time, behind my closed eyes, I see different vibrant colours - amazing!The lovely Chakra or Angel Sprays that are used at the same time add an extra dimension; combinations of wonderful essential oils that are so uplifting. It's like being wrapped in a warm and loving blanket. At the end of the treatment, I feel totally relaxed and refreshed in mind, body and spirit.
Kathryn is a very dedicated healer - totally professional, and you feel you are in very safe and caring hands.

I attended two crystal bowl sessions one as an individual and the other in a group and have been impressed with the lovely peaceful setting of the treatment room. The colours in the room are very restful and help you to relax and unwind. The crystal bowls make you relax with the beautiful sounds and enable you to completely empty your thoughts. After the treatment I felt refreshed and at peace. I will definitely have more treatments in the future as it is a way of taking time out and treating yourself to something that relaxes mind and body.Alison Lang

A wonderfully relaxing treatment ~ just what I needed. I started feeling exhausted and stressed out, but afterwards I felt much more balanced, relaxed and grounded. Thank you!

I have always been interested in sound therapy and came to Kathryn for crystal bowl therapy in 2006 for the first time and found the whole experience very relaxing. In February 2007 I suffered a couple of shocks and then caught a virus because my immune system was not working 100%. I knew that if I didn't do something my system would become weaker and immediately thought of the crystal bowl therapy and knew that I had been guided to ring Kathryn for an appointment.
I was in a very emotional state when I arrived, having just recovered from the virus and still under the influence of the various situations that had caused the shocks in the first place. During the session Kathryn talked to me for some time, trying to find out what exactly had occurred and giving me some guidance on how I could handle my life in respect to what had happened and how I could move forward.
I then received the crystal bowl therapy with Angel Sprays and some OM tuning fork therapy, which enabled me to become one with myself again and gave me the strength to change things. This therapy is very comfortable to receive and leaves you feeling wonderfully relaxed.
Having returned for a 2nd session in April, I feel stronger not only in my body but mentally and spiritually. I am not totally well yet but more in control of myself and able to act with calmness in the knowledge that my body is healthy again.
I happily recommend anyone trying this method of healing, as I believe that it has helped me and will continue to do so in the future.

Dearest Kathryn
I would just like to say a big thank you for the Crystal Bowl treatment; it was a truly wonderful experience. Your venue is in such beautiful country side, and the barn is so warm, cosy and welcoming. The energy there is also amazing and it made me feel really relaxed and tranquil; more so than I’d felt in ages.
Your explanations of how the treatment will work and the option of laying on the magnetic therapy bed or on a mat and duvet and lay however I wished on the floor, made the experience a very different but extremely comfortable healing and re-energising session.
The sounds and fragrances were so uplifting it made me buzz for days, I only wish I could go through this experience daily.
Thank you for making me so welcome. You have such a calming voice which helped me to feel at ease and that you would listen to anything I had to say.
Thank you and I look forward to the next treatment. Dena Jones

Kathryn is one of those rare individuals who is truly spiritual yet is pragmatic about what her therapies can achieve in the real world. The environment in which she carries out her healing and readings is a haven of peace and tranquillity. Once experienced the crystal bowl healing will stay with you for the rest of your lives.
