Hayley Mills, daughter of the actor Sir John Mills, began her film career at the age of 12, when she starred in Tiger Bay.
Now aged 50, she lives a healthy lifestyle thanks, she believes, to vegetarianism and spiritual healing.
"...A girlfriend who owns stables in Surrey told me about healer David Cunningham. They had called him in as a last resort to help a horse that had a badly injured leg. David was so successful that they also asked him to give healing to their groom who had an ankle injury. I intuitively felt that David might be able to help me and decided to meet him... David explained that he would help to unblock energy points in my body much the same way as acupressure massage or acupuncture would - but without touching me. After my first treatment I still felt very tired, but I was much calmer and more able to cope. It was like having my batteries charged. As the treatments progressed, extraordinary things started to happen. An old whiplash injury was causing me considerable pain in my upper arm, neck and shoulders. I asked David to concentrate on this area and suddenly, even though he was not touching me, I could feel the heat from his hands; it felt as though two fingers were pushing my shoulder and neck back into place... But it does not matter what people's beliefs are - the healing often works wonders. There is no reason to fear healing. It feels like a very natural form of therapy and cannot harm anyone... I know it might not work for everyone - but healing has given me a positive new outlook on life. These days I feel altogether better..."
