About Me

 

​I am a qualified reflexologist.  I have an OTHM Level 5 Diploma in Applied Reflexology for Integrated Medicine.  This is the highest level reflexology qualification in the UK currently. I am qualified in duopody, which means I work both feet at the same time. I am also a member of the Association of Reflexologists. I have also worked for many years as a mental health practitioner for the NHS and local authority.  It was through this work that I became interested in body work.  I noticed that many of my clients were still experiencing difficulties after doing many years of conventional therapy and despite feeling that their mind was in a good place. It was like their body was holding on to the old negative feelings even after the mind had let them go and sometimes this was so powerful it was taking their mind into negative places again.  I also noticed that during acute crisis or particularly difficult times, talking didn’t always help.  I therefore began to think about how we can nurture the body and release past emotions and trauma. 

 

​I am passionate about bringing reflexology to as many people as possible and in particular to people who may not ordinarily consider or be able to try a treatment like this.  I work with private clients in my clinic but am also working in local care homes and am seeking to expand this to younger age residential care settings, prisons and psychiatric settings.
