I have worked in the field of health and healing for over 25 years. I originally trained as a nurse from 1966-69, after which I became involved in Complementary healing methods. I then embarked on my own healing process. I am passionate about helping people find the right method of healing and maintaining good health on all levels,-physical, mental, emotional and spiritual, and discovering ways to live creatively and have a sense of inner peace. I am a trained Rebirther with The British Rebirth Society/Stress management tutor with The Health Education Council. I taught Relaxation/Stress management at The Hamar Cancer Help Centre, Royal Shrewsbury Hospital for 3 years. I have worked in private practice for 25 years. I trained as a Reiki 1 practitioner in 1990, Reki 2 in 1992 and became a Reiki Master in 2000. I love to teach Reiki and bring others into this simple yet profound form of healing, as well as working with individual one to one healing sessions. I studied and qualified in Reflexology in 1996 and Advanced Reflexology in 1998. I teach simple, helpful Relaxation techniques within the Reflexology and Reiki sessions, if required, so that people may take them away and use the methods in between sessions. I also teach Relaxation/ Stress Management as a therapy in its own right, helping people to deal with their own stress issues and to have tools which they can implement in everyday life, with which they empower their own healing process. It is my belief that as we remove blockages in the body/mind then we energise the system to heal its self. Both Reiki and Reflexology assist in this process, and Stress management helps us to let go of tensions and allow the healing to take place. I place great emphasis on the use of breathing techniques, to assist in the removal of toxins from the body, and to still the mind, and to help us become at peace with ourselves.

I also run Silent presence Retreats with a colleague . For more information about these retreats go to www.thebestof.co.uk/shrewsbury/meditation
