I just spent a wonderful month in January touring Thailand and did an intensive course in Thai massage while I was there. I had an excellent training with Yan Praphas Sangkhawat, who is qualified by the Watpo Medical School in Bangkok, and Im now very enthusiastic about this form of massage, which complements Shiatsu very well, and ready to start treatments right away!

I am a graduate and registered practitioner of Shiatsu with the British School of Shiatsu-Do. I discovered Shiatsu when experiencing chronic lower back pain. I had tried all sorts of treatments over two years which had had no effect and then by chance was offered a Shiatsu treatment. The results were so immediate and conclusive that I decided that this was to be my next focus of study. Shiatsu has given me the opportunity to focus on a holistic therapy following on from my studies in reflexology and spiritual healing. I worked abroad as a bi-lingual secretary for 10 years, then qualified as a teacher and taught IT and French on moving to Cambridge in 1988. Having a keen interest to work in the health sector I started working in the NHS in 1996 in management training and business management roles. In 2003, I realised that I wanted to work more directly with people in a profession where I could have a direct effect on their health and well-being. I began my Shiatsu training and left the NHS to pursue a career in complementary therapies. I am now also qualified in Thai Massage!
