OVERVIEW
As you are looking at these pages, you, or someone close to you are probably suffering in some way. This may be an acute injury, medium or long-term (chronic) muscular pain. The problem may be a general feeling of being unbalanced or overwhelmed. You may be very aware of the cause of your problem or it may have developed from a vague series of physical, emotional and mental stresses.
I offer a range of treatments that can be focussed and very specific if required, or use a combination of therapies that can work in a more holistic way.
I have been successful in treating many people in this way and could also help you. More people are becoming aware of the benefits of preventative treatment; to reduce the chance of illness and maintain a fit and healthy body if this interests you I can also offer advice and treatments.

BACKGROUND
I studied first in Swedish Massage, Anatomy and Physiology and then moved on to gaining a Higher Diploma in Sports Therapy, through the Academy of Sports Therapy which has allowed me a deeper understanding of the muscles and their attachments in particular and therefore better able to treat them. I have been practising since 1997.
Experience has led me to an understanding that physical pain is often significantly influenced by other stresses, our emotional state and spiritual well-being. This led me to train in Indian Head Massage
(London Centre of Indian Champissage) Reiki (Tera-Mai) and Bach Flower Remedies (Bach Foundation Registered Practitioner).
I am a member of I.P.T.I (Independent Professional Therapists International), with whom I am also insured. I am also qualified practitioner of the Niel Asher Technique for the treatment of Frozen Shoulder.
As a therapist I do not pretend to be immune to these stresses as I do try to maintain an active lifestyle. I also maintain enough contact with the current working environment to give me an understanding of the postural and other stresses that many clients endure on a regular basis.
In continuing on my own path I have also undergone shamanic training, developed other natural and spiritual healing and meditation techniques and hope to use these to help others too.

SPORTS/REMEDIAL MASSAGE AND INJURY TREATMENTS
A treatment session consists of massage techniques, some of which will be consistent with other massage styles, but there will also be some deeper work and sometimes use of reflex points. Stretching and resistive stretching can also be incorporated into a treatment and there will be after-care advice, including exercises or stretches to do at home.
I am also qualified in the Niel Asher Technique for the treatment of Frozen Shoulder and related problems.
Some discomfort may be felt, but most feel this as necessary to progress towards a release that follows.
Soreness for up to 24 hours following treatment can occur. This is a positive indication that the body is responding to the treatment.

DEEP TISSUE MASSAGE
The treatment is similar to sports massage in nature, but is also beneficial to non-sports people. The session is usually more holistic in that it will generally work on back, neck and shoulders or the whole body, but treating problem areas where found. I also use trigger points and fascia work to help in the healing of chronic muscular tension.

INDIAN HEAD MASSAGE
This is a seated massage without oil, which reduces tension and improves circulation around the head, neck and shoulders. It can also help treat sinus problems and is calming for the mind.

REIKI
Reiki is a natural healing system, in which a Universal healing energy is channelled through the practitioner. This, together with balancing of the chakras, stimulates the client’s own potential to be healed. This is usually a hands-off treatment working through the aura, but there maybe light contact when needed.
Reiki works on the physical, mental and spiritual levels and also on our relationship to the past, present and future.

BACH FLOWER REMEDIES
You may be familiar with ‘Rescue Remedy’ to treat acute emotional stress; well Dr Bach discovered 38 remedies that can be used in combinations to treat negative emotional states. They are an energy medicine and are safe to take with any medication.
The session is always guided by only accepting the negative states that the client can consciously recognise. This becomes an unfolding process once the remedies are being taken .The consultation includes the cost of a treatment bottle. There are usually 3 weeks between consultations.
The remedies work by making us more aware of how we think, feel and react emotionally and support us as we adapt to the changes that this awareness stimulates in us to move away from negative reactions which may have been mainly sub-conscious.
