🎊 In 2026, I will be commemorating 10 years of offering cupping therapy and health coaching services.
🏡 The past few weeks have felt particularly full-circle. Alongside moving house and expanding my services after a decade of practice, in our loft I unexpectedly came across my old Health Psychology Master’s notes, essays, and thesis.
That moment took me straight back to where this journey truly began.
👩🏽🎓 Since graduating in 2003, I had finally found my passion: Health Psychology and the mind–body connection. I went on to work in a variety of health research assistant and clinical audit roles, deepening my understanding of how psychological, emotional, and physical health are profoundly interconnected.
🩻 In 2015, following a back injury caused by a fall down the stairs, I decided to train in Cupping Therapy. After years of chronic back pain, cupping was the complementary therapy that made a genuine, lasting difference for me.
I qualified in 2016, and from the very beginning, my Health Psychology background naturally flowed into my work with clients.
🗓️ Fast forward to the end of 2025. After 10 years of service, I am now expanding my practice to include additional therapies—each one chosen because I have personally experienced their physical and emotional benefits.
Every therapy I offer has a personal story behind it and has supported me through significant life experiences, including:
- navigating my mum’s Parkinson’s disease diagnosis,
- living with my own osteopenia diagnosis since 2012,
- healing from childhood trauma, growing up with an almost alcoholic father who lived with bipolar disorder,
- and ultimately coping with his su***de in 2021.
