It is hard to know where to start talking about the last twenty years since the clinic was established in June 2000. My career has allowed me so many experiences I wouldn’t have otherwise had and the opportunity to get to know so many amazing people. Oh the stories I could tell!

People are without doubt what makes a massage practice. I will never underestimate the privilege it is to be allowed into someone’s life the way a therapist is. I have shared happiness and sadness; births and deaths; marriages, birthdays and anniversaries; successes, failures, mishaps and much hilarity. I have learnt so much about subjects I would not have otherwise discovered and solved many, many personal and world problems with clients over the massage couch. I hold ‘putting the world to rights’ with clients as one of my favourite pastimes. No doubt there will be some read this and think yes, that’s me!

I am without doubt wiser and more informed and able to understand different opinions about the world around me because of conversations in the clinic. You have no idea the pleasure I get when I add a snippet of information on a topic I have no connection to gleaned from the random conversations in the clinic. It is delicious fun to astound friends and family with something they don’t expect me to know!

Maybe one day I’ll write that book and share all my experiences with you of course missing all those personal details to maintain client confidentiality. Perhaps you’ll recognise yourself in there?

For now I intend to post some of my biggest and best memories of the past twenty years. Please feel free to comment or add your own. It is nice now and then to walk down Memory Lane.

I am sorry we can’t celebrate together as planned but next year let’s party like we’re 21 again… because we will be.

Happy anniversary and thank you.
