About me
I've been a natural health therapist for nearly 30 years; initially qualifying in massage, aromatherapy and reflexology, I went on to specialise in injury and sports therapy and then maternity therapies. I am a therapy teacher and examiner and have also written several qualifications as well as a book about Aromatherapy. My latest addition is Menopause Coaching and Training for individuals and organisations, a subject which has renewed my passion for teaching about the human body and lifestyle hacks for a healthy mind and body.
In my clinics, I work mainly with clients to resolve issues with pain and soft tissue dysfunction. I'd describe my treatment style as a tailored pick and mix approach.... it's not unusual for me to use essential oils in a sports treatment or reflexology at the end of a massage to bring about a sense of balance and calm. I'm a big fan of applied stretching and fascia release, for which I often incorporate gua sha techniques. I sometimes give exercises for clients to do at home, but these are always limited to one or two quality movements to be done frequently.
My first book 'Aromatherapy for Mental Wellbeing' was published in June 2021 and is available from me or on Amazon. Have a look at my Aromatherapy page for information about my bespoke blending service, workshops and courses.
Reproductive health has long been a specialism of mine, I have had the privilege of treating women with a variety of therapies from preconception through to post birth and beyond. I am therefore so excited to be adding menopause coaching and training to my services. This is a hugely misunderstood and stigmatised topic which affects women for a third of their lives. Having reached the menopause milestone myself 2 years ago, I began to realise the impact it was having on me and those around me and began seeking solutions that work. Head over to the menopauses services page to find out more about how I can help you.
