About Me
Originally from Brazil I moved to England in 1980 to do a PhD in biomedical engineering. My interest in complementary therapies began when I started using them to help a lymphatic condition I have had since childhood. Along the way I found that it was a great form of keeping healthy and balanced. After having two children I decided to have a career change and started to attend short courses in different therapies, such as shiatsu, full body massage, kinesiology and reflexology. However, reflexology was the one I felt most passionate about and so decided to take a qualification course. In this way I started my journey in the world of complementary therapies and never looked back.
I qualified as a Reflexologist in 1993 and became a full member of the Association of Reflexologists and proficient in advanced techniques by attending Advanced Reflexology Training (ART) and Maternity Reflexology. Through the years I attended many workshops on different reflexology techniques and related subjects , which has helped me to develop a very individual way of working.
Continuing my journey, in 1997 I qualified as a practitioner in Thermo Auricular Therapy - Hopi Ear Candling. A few years later in 2000 I qualified in Indian Head Massage and in 2004 I completed my Reiki Level 2.
For many year I have been doing my own studies on nutrition and its effects on the body and mind as I believe nutrition is essential for maintaining good health. Finally in 2009, after three years of studying with the College of Naturopathic Medicine, I got a diploma in naturopathic nutrition. I am a member of BANT and fully insured to offer nutritional consultations.
My experiences of using these therapies, individually or combined, have proven them to be very effective in addressing many physical, mental and emotional problems, helping restore and maintain health and well being.
I have been practicing since 1993 at my own private practice and for the past ten years I also practice at private clinics. I have thirteen years experience working with people affected by HIV and since 2007 I have been working with people affected by MS and ME at the MS Centre in Southwick.
