Professional Qualifications

I'm proud to say almost all of my professional training has been with the highly regarded Jing Institute of Advanced Clinical Massage and Complementary Medicine. Jing founders and published authors Rachel Fairweather and Meghan Mari are committed to raising the standard of the UK massage industry to be comparable to the US where clinical massage is a regulated profession and considered alongside physiotherapy and osteopathy.

Continuing professional development is something I take seriously and fortunately thoroughly enjoy. It's also a requirement of my registration with the Sports Massage Association. In addition to the training listed here, I participate in monthly online mentoring and training sessions and keep up to date with industry news and research by listening to geeky podcasts!
