Profile
I am a qualified BTEC Level 4 Holistic and ITEC Level 3 Sports Masseur with additional background in Reflexology and Swedish massage. I have 20 year’s experience of working in private Healthcare and also across a range of other business sectors. I have nurtured professionals, and received referrals from medical and alternative care providers as well as treat colleagues. My key holistic treatments include sensitive palpation, to identify tissue texture and tension, effleurage to sooth or stimulate circulation, petrissage to soften and relieve adhesions and friction to relax knotted and painful areas. In addition I use acupressure to encourage stimulation, soft tissue release muscle on tendons and ligaments and neuromuscular technique on trauma areas in my sports treatments. I am proud to affirm my ‘healing hands’ and professionalism provides a warm, sensitive, confidential and reviving service that is client centred with a main focus of restoring the client’s holistic health.
Key Skills
Communication: Over 30 years experience of verbal and electronic communication at all levels, primarily in private business, healthcare, the arts and education sectors, with a clear, articulate, confident manner.
.
Customer Care: I have 20 year’s experience as a masseur and in home care provision. Each of my treatment is tailored to the clients’ needs and delivered with care and sensitivity
Confidentiality I have worked as a therapist, in sexual health and as a receptionist in private education. Being trustworthy and respecting each individual’s needs are factors I hold dearly as I am aware of the trauma to those whose confidentiality have been breached
Perceptive My astute sense of awareness has developed throughout my adult life giving me a keen ability to identify the subtle, unconscious aspects that makes us all vulnerable, hence the need to be treated with care and respect.
Sensitive I have found that each individual, in spite of the tower of strength they may portray, has sensitive issues which I believe must be treated with cognizance and empathy, qualities I bring to each session.
Physical Fitness I possess a high level of fitness which is necessary as I need to transmit positive energy in the liberation of physiological and psychological ills.
