The last four days have been spent in Brighton at the Jing Institute of Advanced Massage Training, assisting with teaching, and as always it has been an absolute pleasure.

It's inspiring to watch the Advanced Clinical Massage (ACMT) and ACMT Intensive students develop their skills, confidence, and clinical reasoning throughout the course.

Over the four days, they explored the assessment and treatment of lower back pain, neck and shoulder pain, shoulder girdle dysfunction, and leg, knee and foot pain, alongside developing thorough consultation and clinical assessment skills.

I'm also incredibly excited to share that I've been accepted onto the second stage of the Jing Teacher Training Programme. It's a real privilege to continue developing as both a clinician and educator, and I'm looking forward to continuing this journey.

A huge thank you, as always, to the wonderful Jing team, my fellow teacher training colleagues, and all of the students for making the week such an enjoyable and rewarding experience. I can't wait for the next one!

I'm incredibly grateful to the wonderful person who nominated me for Small Business of the Year at the West Country Women Awards 2026.
To know that someone felt my work was worthy of this recognition is incredibly touching. Thank you for your kindness, encouragement, and for taking the time to submit a nomination—it means so much.
Every day, I strive to make a positive difference by helping people reduce pain, improve their wellbeing, and feel empowered to take control of their health. To have that recognised in this way means more than I can put into words.
Thank you again for your support—it truly means the world.

Super excited to be spending today watching the Online Clinical Massage Research Conference 2026.

A huge congratulations to everyone presenting their research projects. It's incredibly inspiring to see such a diverse range of clinically relevant topics being explored, including:

• Ehlers-Danlos syndrome and hypermobility
• Menopause
• Long COVID
• Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction
• Endometriosis
• The mental health challenges experienced by people living with chronic pain
• Supporting bereaved parents through massage therapy

I'll be taking plenty of notes throughout the day—not only to continue developing my own clinical practice, but also because next year I'll be standing on the other side as a speaker, presenting my own research project exploring massage therapy for PTSD.

It's a real privilege to experience this year's conference as a delegate before contributing as a presenter next year.

Research like this continues to strengthen the evidence base for clinical massage therapy and highlights the important role massage can play as part of an integrated, person-centred approach to healthcare.

A huge thank you to JING Advanced Massage Training for continually raising the standards of the massage profession through exceptional education, research, and by creating opportunities for therapists to share knowledge and advance evidence-informed practice. Your commitment is helping shape the future of clinical massage.

Wishing all of this year's presenters the very best of luck—I can't wait to learn from you all!

I’m really excited to be starting my research project:

Evaluating the Effects of the Jing Method™ of Clinical Massage on Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) in Adults.

This is something I feel incredibly passionate about, and I’m looking forward to exploring how clinical massage can support those living with PTSD.

Watch this space – I’ll be sharing more as the journey unfolds

As we celebrate the pile of dissertations sitting in the office and prepare for our upcoming Clinical Massage Research Conference it's also time for the next wave of students to get their research off the ground. Go Team 25-27!

We've been excited to see the titles be submitted and research proposals and will be catching up with all of you guys today to keep everyone excited and moving forward. Can't wait!

Consistency is where the magic happens

One massage feels good…
But regular massage? That’s where real change begins.

Physically you may notice:
• Less tension building up week to week
• Fewer flare-ups of aches & pains
• Better posture and movement
• Support with things like lower back pain or tendonitis

Mentally you may feel:
• Calmer, more regulated
• Less overwhelmed by stress
• Improved sleep
• More connected to your body

Massage isn’t just a treat — it’s maintenance for your body and mind.

A monthly membership helps you stay ahead of tension, rather than constantly chasing it.

Because you deserve to feel good consistently, not just occasionally.

As most of you know, I’m currently studying towards my Level 6 BTEC in Advanced Clinical Massage, and I’ve now entered my third and final year — a big milestone!

As part of this final stage, I’ll be carrying out a small-scale research project exploring the effects of the Jing Method of massage for adults living with PTSD.

Through both my personal experience and working with clients, I’ve seen just how powerful massage can be for mental wellbeing — helping to ease stress, calm the nervous system, and support overall emotional balance. It’s something I feel incredibly passionate about, and I’m excited to explore this further through my research.

If you’d like to take part in the research project, please message me directly

Advanced Clinical Massage – Plymouth Days (Wednesdays)

My Plymouth clinic days offer a calm, supportive space where you can slow down, breathe, and reconnect with your body. This work is especially supportive for those living with chronic pain, helping to gently ease tension, reduce discomfort, and support the body in finding a more ease and balance.

As a chronic pain specialist, I use advanced clinical massage to tailor each session to you, whether you’re managing long-term pain, recovering from injury, or feeling the impact of stress and daily life on your body.
