MY STORY

I first became interested in Complementary Therapies, when suffering with an anxiety disorder, around 20 years ago.I began to read all that I could on different subjects such as nutrition, aromatherapy, herbs, exercise and mind management techniques, as I wanted to do all that I could to feel better again. After overcoming anxiety, I was left with a keen interest in Complementary Therapies.

I decided that for the birth of my third child in 2005, that I would like to have my son at home instead of hospital. I was not wanting to use any drugs for pain relief, if I didn't have too, and wanted a more natural birth.

Learning all that I could about natural birth, is when I discovered the benefits of relaxation, visualisation and hypnosis.

Unfortunately, I didn't experience a normal labour, and therefore was not able to have a home birth as planned. However, I was still able to use, and benefit from the techniques that I had learnt. 

Up until the arrival of my son, I worked 12 years for local government and held numerous roles during this time.
