I became a Therapist and Practitioner after suffering with debilitating pain 10 years ago in my neck, shoulders and arms and successfully being CURED. I was diagnosed as having bulging discs C5 to C7 and Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. I was in pain most of the time and especially at night. Painkillers were not helping the pain and I felt desperate for help.
I discovered via google the Jing Institute in Brighton and I was referred to an Advanced Clinical Massage Therapist in Liverpool who helped me relieve my symptoms within 3 months.
I have always loved holistic work and I knew I wanted to have a career in this one day. My opportunity came when I was made redundant 5 years ago when I was a Chartered Legal Executive working for Large Insurance Company.
My Journey into the Holistic MindBody world began over 20 years ago when I did the Dru Yoga training, a Body Massage Certificate and a Reflexology Diploma. Then 5 years ago I qualified as an Advanced Clinical Massage Therapist at the Jing Inistitute and I completed my SIRPA training. My passion for the MindBody connection began to grow rapidly. I am currently doing a Biomedical Science Degree at Chester University and training to be a Counsellor.
I see myself as a Mindbody worker and researcher. I am a constant learner and the journey I am on is very exciting. I love to share all what I have learned and experienced. My clients will vouch for this! I am an avid reader and have a ‘floodlight’ rather than a ‘spotlight’ view of life.

I am passionate about Trigger Point therapy, Myofascial Release and all forms of therapeutic healing. I have done extensive studying and I believe in being an eternal student. My aim during any treatment is to eliminate pain or at least reduce it so you can get back to living a normal life as possible.

Dr Travell and Dr Simons
They are the pioneers of Myofascial pain and Dysfunction, Dr Travell and Dr Simons whose two books have given me the in-depth knowledge of all the trigger point pain patterns in the body. The main innovation of Travell’s work was the introduction of the myofascial pain syndrome concept (myofascial referring to the combination of muscle and fascia).
Dr John E Sarno
The TMS (Tension Myoneural Syndrome) concept was developed from the early 1970’s by the late Dr John Sarno, Professor of Rehabilitation Medicine at the New York University School of Medicine. Unfortunately due to existing medical beliefs, despite continually demonstrating the highly successful outcomes of his patients, he has faced great resistance.
TMS is a psychosomatic illness causing chronic back, neck, and limb pain which is not relieved by standard medical treatments. He includes other ailments, such as gastrointestinal problems, dermatological disorders and repetitive-strain injuries as TMS related. Sarno states that he has successfully treated over ten thousand patients at the Rusk Institute by educating them on his beliefs of a psychological and emotional basis to their pain and symptoms. Sarno’s theory is, in part, that the pain are an unconscious “distraction” to aid in the repression of deep unconscious emotional issues. Sarno believes that when patients think about what may be upsetting them in their unconscious, they can defeat their minds’ strategy to repress these powerful emotions; when the symptoms are seen for what they are, the symptoms then serve no purpose, and they go away.
