Where did it begin? A few years ago I hurt my back and had to go for a course of massage treatments to relieve the muscle tension – this was my first experience of massage and much to my surprise it worked ! I felt the effects more or less immediately and decided that I would like to be able to help people in this way also so I decided to study Massage Therapy in the Fuschia College in Cork City. I really loved the course. I began to appreciate very quickly the importance of looking after my body and the physical and emotional benefits I was experiencing through giving and receiving massage. I went on to study Hot stone Massage, Indian head massage, Reflexology and Aromatherapy – All of which I enjoyed for different reasons. |

When I heard that an Infant Massage training course was coming to Ireland, it really grabbed my attention. I realized massage for both parents and infants would be a dynamic combination. I completed the certificate course in Infant Massage with the International Association of Infant Massage and I now teach parents and care givers how to massage infants. It has been a really rewarding experience so far. As a mother of a young child myself, I have first hand experience of the highs and lows of early parenting, and it means a lot to me to be able to support and nurture others with babies and young children. That is why I have developed my classes to be a balance of baby massage and relaxation with an equal length of time given to the important business of coffee and chat!
