Ginny Anderson
Ginny Anderson first gained qualifications in alternative therapies in 2003 and has been practising and developing her skills base since this time.
I first became interested in massage whilst teaching Peer Massage to children in schools. Discovering the value of therapeutic touch has changed my life and I have expanded my understanding by training in Deep Tissue and Remedial approaches to massage techniques. These techniques can be adapted to improve the physical comfort of people who are active sports enthusiasts, people whose work can bring physical challenges and people who are discovering that the ageing process, in general, brings its own physical challenges.
After training in Reflexology; -
(Reflexology - Working upon the feet, this relaxing treatment can help to balance the immune system and enhance the body's own natural healing process.)
and
(Reiki - A gentle, non-intrusive treatment that uses universal energy to unblock and rebalance the body physically and emotionally.)
I now have a range of tools that I can use independently or combined to assist the needs of my clients.
I have practised yoga myself for over thirty years and found that it has helped me to recover my body from accidents, childbirth and various physical injuries that life has thrown at me. In recent years I have suffered with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and I have had to learn to adapt my yoga practise to allow me to continue. I discovered that many yoga teachers, whilst very skilled, did not always understand the nature of my illness and the challenges I have faced. I have used this experience to adapt my own practice and now offer classes to share my learning with others who wish to practise yoga and cope with the challenges of illness and ageing.
I have found that I now have a range of skills that can assist with the healing and improvement of many of the challenges that affect the human body and thus the human spirit. Feeling at one with our bodies can allow us to feel more at one with ourselves. I hope that I may have the pleasure of sharing my learning to enhance your experience of living within your body.
