I came to massage originally from a movement background, having studied Mime and Movement in London for 2 years. During this time I became very fascinated by the
connection between mind and body and started having massage treatments myself in order to achieve what was known in Mime circles as the Body Neutral (basically a relaxed and natural body state). I found it so personally helpful that I carried on and did the training.
I qualified in ‘Holistic Massage’ (ITEC) in London in 1990. I then took additional courses in Advanced Massage and Sports Massage with the London School of Massage. I also trained in ‘On-site Massage’ with Stressbusters, although I confess I haven’t used that routine very much. In 2006 I did the first level of training in ‘Reconnective Healing’ which is a powerful form of spiritual healing.
I have also completed a Foundation in ‘Core Process Psychotherapy’ and two years of training in Counselling (Gestalt based). Although I don’t work as a psychotherapist as such, these skills are useful in any therapeutic relationship.
Over the years I have been involved in much personal development work and the Focusing skills are probably the one thing which I have learned that I consider most useful and adaptable to bodywork.
