EXPERIENCE :
I have practised body-based therapies for the past 30 years. My practice has been mostly in London (I am now living in Scotland) and I have offered Massage and Shiatsu in various settings including NHS and palliative care.
I have taught in Massage schools (ITEC) and in Adult education. I teach pregnancy massage to body therapists. I now teach Qigong in various locations around the Forres area and also offer individual consultations based on 5 element theory resulting in a Qigong form that is personal to you.
I have taught Qigong for corporations, in Hospices, in an NHS therapy department, in a Pain Management team and in my local community.

SPECIFIC EMPHASIS :
I am a believer in the innate healing power of the body and mind and so my work is empowering, supportive and enabling, rather than prescriptive.
Clients describe a sensitivity and a calm, relaxed and grounded ambiance to my sessions.
I am passionate about Oriental Medicine and the observation of nature applied to the human being. In my trainings, there is no separation between the physical, emotional and psychological and so my treatments consider all levels without being too wordy!!
In personal Qigong coaching there is a greater emphasis on enquiring as to life-long patterns of health and this would involve an hour-long interview along oriental medicine lines. This is followed by a personal Qigong form which clients recieve by a private You Tube link.
I offer follow up coaching calls to support daily practice.
