My training within massage therapy began in 1992, I then went on to qualify as a Licenced Massage Therapist in 1994. Over the years I have trained in various bodywork treatments within different Training Institutes in Scotland and London.
Some of this training includes -
Advanced Clinical Aromatherapy, Deep Tissue Massage, Slavic Massage(TM) , Acupressure, Seated Massage Therapy , Indian Head Massage , Thai Foot Massage and Hands Free/Injury Prevention Massage.I have also studied advanced techniques including CranioSacral Therapy and Energy Balancing.
Part of my previous work experience has been employment as a therapist within NHS funded stress centres and community health projects providing individual treatments and groupwork. I have also previously taught massage therapy within further education colleges and for private training providers and qualified as an SQA Assessor and Internal Verifier in 2000 /2002.
From 2005 I have been offering Seated Massage Therapy onsite within various organisations and since that time have specialised in this type of therapy within the workplace. Over recent years I have been studying and researching postural care,such as the effects poor posture has on various aspects of health and wellbeing and as a result have developed effective treatments to help alleviate postural issues.
