About Me

Having worked in an office environment since leaving school, I was becoming increasingly aware of the effect it was having on my stress levels and posture. I worked in Human Resources and Sales Admin for many years and was learning that long hours, high stress and sitting at a desk all day were making me ill! So in 2015 I decided to take the plunge and follow my passion to work as a Holistic Therapist full time, having worked part time since 2005.

I first discovered my passion for massage on a short introductory course back in the late 1990’s. I went with a friend on an Adult Education 10 week course out of interest, but not expecting to get much out of it. I soon discovered I loved to give a massage as well as receive one, the feedback I got was so encouraging. It was amazing to see people relax before my eyes, and really enjoy the massage. I liked making people ‘feel better’.

I decided to take the Anatomy and Physiology in September 2000 at Guildford college and see where it led me. I’d always loved Biology at school so I loved this course! It led me to Swedish Massage, where my course tutor, a lovely woman called Rosemary Henderson, who I will never forget, introduced me to Reflexology. From then on I was hooked! I later trained in Additional Reflexology techniques, Indian Head Massage and Reiki healing Level 1 and 2.

At the same time as deciding to be a Holistic Therapist full time, I embarked on my spiritual journey, having met so many wonderful people that introduced me to the concept that there is so much more to this life, and to energy healing. Both my parents have now passed over, and having a spiritual practice has really helped me to deal with grief, and to feel connected to them.

Over the years I have taken a number of short courses for further education, including Reflexology for Stress and I am now a qualified Minfulness and Life Coach, continuing my passion to help you heal holistically with mind, body and soul therapies.
