I qualified as a Registered Nurse in 1982 and went on to become a Registered Midwife in 1984. It was after this that my interest in Complementary Therapy was ignited. In Chiropody College I read a book on reflexology and a week later met a student who was studying reflexology. I had a session with her and was completely fascinated by the concept that the feet were connected to all the other organs and systems in the body and that these organs could be stimulated by using a particular type of pressure massage. This fascination with the human body and, given the right circumstances, its ability to correct any form of imbalance has remained with me, so twenty odd years later I am still researching and learning new techniques.I spent four years with the Irish School of Homoeopathy before graduating from the first and only accredited school in Ireland at that time. I find that homoeopathy works really well with many of the other therapies I use.I trained with The Upledger Institute and went on study Paediatrics with the Karuna Institute. I find when I incorporate Homoeopathy with Craino Sacral results in a much faster response especially with back problems, indigestion and colic in babies.I get great pleasure in teaching Reiki, I started teaching Reiki in Dublin and Wicklow where I lived for ten years, I have been teaching in Tralee since 1997. It is one of the greatest feelings when you see the peace, happiness and awareness it brings to people. When I first experienced Reiki as a student I felt compelled to go on to become a Reiki Master Teacher so that I could share this simple yet beautiful and profound healing with the rest of the world, where a mother can put her hand on her crying child and soothe her pain in seconds.
