Since qualifying in Anatomy, Physiology and Body Massage in 1995 I have worked with a wide variety of client groups in Edinburgh, Fife, Dumfries & Galloway and more recently the Moray Leisure Centre, Elgin.
My desire for a more holistic approach to body work and an opportunity to integrate my interest in shamanism has led me to LaStone Therapy. I studied this with Jane Scrivner, co-founder of The British School of Complementary Therapy.
I intend to bring the essential nature of the stones, a connection to the earth and a dynamic application of temperature to my already established massage practice.
Who can it help?
Because of the variables of time, temperature and stones, anyone can benefit from LaStone Therapy.
