I have, at a minimum, two people to thank for my current and loved career – My Granny and My Partner. My Granny always had a natural home-made remedy for what “ailed ya” – blackcurrant and honey tea for a cough, epsom salts baths for aches and pains, rosemary rinse for dandruff or, simply, glowing hair. My interest in complimentary solutions to everyday health problems was born from these remedies. When I had my own family I used these and other complementary therapies, like herbal medicines and aromatherapy, to help us through.
My Partner encouraged me to formalise this love and interest into a profession when, after twenty years in the Corporate environment, I was given the opportunity to change career paths. I took it, and graduated in 2011 with a B. Sc. in Applied Health Sciences and Diploma’s in Physical Therapy and Massage Therapy. Since graduation, I have obtained qualifications in:
– Dry Needling – Pregnancy Massage for Relaxation – Pregnancy Massage for Specific Conditions – Thai Herbal Compress Massage – Massage for People living with Cancer – Tailored Massage for People with Disabilities – Massage for the Elderly – On-Site Chair Massage – On-Site Acupressure Chair Massage
As all my treatment plans are tailored around the client’s need to return to health AND to their busy life – their family, their sport, their job – the additional qualifications I have allow me to include a combination of Physical Therapy, Complimentary manual therapy techniques and Rehabilitation exercises into these plans. This allows me to offer therapy services to everyone, including those with special healthcare needs.
I am fully insured and fully mobile making me available for Home Visits and On-Site Corporate days or events. I am a member of the Irish Association of Physical Therapists (IAPT), the Irish Massage Therapists Association (IMTA) and I am awaiting registration with CORU, the government body regulating Irish Health Professionals. As a member of IAPT and IMTA your Health Insurance many cover the full or partial cost of your treatments. Please check with your health insurance provider.
