My love for Shiatsu developed alongside my passion for creative movement, holistic treatments and more recently my need for enhanced wellbeing in mid-life.  During my four-year training I began to understand how Shiatsu offers a complete and alternative healing system for the whole body based on Traditional Chinese Medicine, acupressure points, connection, touch and being fully present in our body.   I believe that by supporting clients to bring their attention to their body’s internal healing power of energy and movement, it is possible to become more aware of emotional, physical, spiritual and mental states and harness internal power to make changes to support wellbeing.  Shiatsu has helped me find strength and inner calm, improved health and wellbeing and deeper connection with myself, my family and community and surroundings.

 

In my spare time I love to move and swim, run, hike, bike and go to Yoga, Tai Chi and Qigong classes in Monmouth as well as singing in a wonderful community choir. 

 

In 2022 I completed an MA in Arts Practice (Arts, Health and Wellbeing) researching creative and somatic movement for wellbeing.  I also offer creative, wellbeing projects inspired by moving somatically in natural landscapes and these workshops invite small groups to respond and connect with nature and themselves.  This work overlaps with my understanding and interpretation of Five Element theory.

 

I trained at the Bristol School of Shiatsu and Shiatsu College (London) and am a registered and insured member of the Shiatsu Society (MRSS).
