Nadine was left devastated after suffering three miscarriages in her twenties. She turned to a complementary therapy - reiki - to help her find some peace.

Reiki is based on an Eastern belief that the laying of hands can release 'energy' to heal people.

Nadine is awaiting NHS test results on her fertility.
