Amy Winehouse has paid to fly a Caribbean healer over to the UK to help beat her addictions, reports have claimed.

The 'Back to Black' singer, who has struggled with drug and alcohol abuse, apparently met guru Peter Hippolyte while living in St Lucia earlier this year and has now asked him to take healing sessions with her in London to help curb her partying lifestyle.

Hippolyte told Heat magazine: "We hug each other, we kiss each other and I put my hands on her shoulder. I tell her not to worry and we sing to each other. When I come to the UK, I will use my hands to help heal her and use my psychological healing to organise her mind."

He continued: "We will say prayers together and she will drink bush tea with antioxidants. I have healing hand and I talk to her and explain things to her. She's a wonderful girl and she believes in me. I am coming back to England to help her."
