a patient with progressive disease recently said after receiving reflexology:
"…it is like taking a holiday from my cancer…I feel so relaxed"

This month, in Breast Awareness Month, we share the love of Reflexology as a complementary treatment for those living with or in remission from Cancer

What happened?
There i was, getting Google reviews, posting posts, updating my details and people were finding me and then.....they asked me to VERIFY

I have had months, and i'm not joking, with emails to and from Google Support and still not verfied. It's as people are saying the nightmare is real once you fall off an online presence.

Last year my website got hacked and directed to a page I do not want to describe but it was video and i only found out when a potential clients said 'i won't be visiting that site again!!' All good now thanks to , hosting both websites and being so patient with my numerous issues with password retention.

So, until my next clinic when i get the chance to upload a video, fingers crossed the gods of wifi grace me in such a rural location.

For now i'll blog on my website my 'musings of a masseur' although it's been more 'arsing about with admin' recently

👉 Therapeutic Massage vs Competition Massage: What are our definitions?

The General Council for Massage Therapies (GCMT) affirms its support for the diversity of massage applications within therapeutic interactions in complementary healthcare and promotes massage practice that is evidence-informed, collaborative, and client-focused.

Public competitions and showcase events however are typically structured as time sensitive exhibitions, often conducted in busy public venues and assessed primarily on practitioner performance and presentation.

While such events may provide a platform to demonstrate individual skills and techniques, they do not replicate the clinical conditions of therapeutic practice, where the client is the central focus.

Outdated, technique-driven and therapist-dominated approaches to treatment, undermine the modern scientific perspective which emphasises therapeutic alliance, contextual factors, and the client’s beliefs, values, and expectations.

The GCMT recognises that while participation in such events may provide opportunities for self-appraisal, feedback, or reflective learning, Continuous Professional Development (CPD) is most effective when it moves beyond a purely technique-focused approach.

The GCMT remains committed to ensuring that CPD is grounded in current evidence and underpinned by collaborative, client-centred principles. It does not endorse public massage competitions as a model of therapeutic practice or as a gateway to teaching CPD.

👉 Definitions from a GCMT perspective

➡️ Therapeutic massage: A professional healthcare service delivered in safe, confidential, and client-focused environments with care that is mutually agreed towards achieving meaningful therapeutic outcomes

➡️ Competition Massage: A performance-based demonstration typically conducted within trade or showcase events and centred on exhibition and judging criteria

The Hunters Moon is a memory of when a pivot occurred, October 2006.

I spent the evening doing a sweat lodge just outside Stroud, knowing i was moving there within weeks. I remember looking over a field that had been recently harvested, stalks glowing in the light from the full moon gradually rising.

Excited for the next chapter of my life, not knowing what was to come

The Hunter's Moon has arrived, illuminating the skies for hunters and wildlife preparing for winter. This full moon gets its name from ideal hunting conditions under bright moonlight. Step outside and witness the glow of this majestic autumn moon!

Flip it... if things don't seem to be flowing in the 'right' direction, we can't always see how things work out

I am thankful for challenges that make me stronger.

Affirmations have the power to uplift, motivate, and transform our mindset. By repeating positive statements, we can shift our perspective and believe in our own abilities.

When we replace negative self-talk with empowering affirmations, we open ourselves up to new possibilities. Even on the toughest days, taking a moment to recite an affirmation can provide a much-needed boost.

Affirmations allow us to be our own cheerleaders. They help us let go of self-doubt, build resilience, and unlock our greatest potential. Think of them as daily doses of inspiration and self-confidence.

The simple act of declaring an affirmative mantra creates new neural pathways that promote optimism, success, and self-love. Make affirmations part of your routine and watch their magic unfold. You have the power to manifest the reality you want using the power of your words and thoughts.
