I have always had a passion for natural healing methods. During my college years, I studied nutrition and found great joy in learning about the body and how food can significantly impact our lives. My father-in-law struggled with gluten intolerance, and back in the 1980s, gluten-free products were nearly impossible to find. By educating him about his diet, I was able to improve his health, and he often told me that I “saved his life.”
As time went on, my interest in naturopathy grew, but finding a practitioner in my area proved challenging—especially before the internet era! The few practitioners I encountered were not helpful; one chiropractor insisted that I needed chiropractic adjustments, while another mysteriously vanished from her office. It felt like this door had closed for me, so I pivoted and pursued an alternative nutrition course. During that journey, I discovered iridology, an eye analysis technique that reflects the body's health, and I began practicing these modalities.
In the 1990s, I met a wonderful woman who introduced me to Reiki. I took her courses and even purchased a massage table. I found fulfillment in this work, but eventually desired to learn a modality that would connect alternative practices to mainstream healthcare.
After completing a three-year diploma in massage therapy, I opened a practice in my home in 1999. As a new graduate, I felt eager to continue expanding my skills. At that time, community outreach was crucial for advertising, so I actively participated in breakfast business groups, distributed flyers, appeared on Breakfast TV, wrote articles, volunteered, made donations, and connected with other practitioners through networking groups.
Over the years, I have taken numerous classes and courses to learn various techniques, including craniosacral therapy, lymphatic drainage, hot stone massage, active tissue release, myofascial release, acupressure, aromatherapy, biofield tuning, Indian head massage, meridian massage, facial acupressure, matrix repatterning, and rapid neurofascial reset.
I appreciate having a diverse set of "tools" in my toolbox, and I truly enjoy learning and making a positive difference in the lives of others. I look forward to continuing my journey of growth and enhancement in the future!
