My Story
​
Due to having lived experience of Fibromyalgia type symptoms and chronic digestive issues in the past, this provides me with invaluable first-hand experience of these types of conditions and the ways in which alternative therapies can assist.
Several years ago my health hit rock bottom, I was one of those people who had tried every conventional medical treatment to alleviate my chronic health issues, but to no avail. I resorted to paying extortionate prices to see various specialists – still, no improvement. I researched my symptoms extensively, night and day. I decided to undergo food intolerance testing. Little did I know the process of such testing would change my life – for the better!
​
Kinesiology was the therapy used to establish if I had any food sensitivities. The therapeutic power of Kinesiology completely blew my mind! I was so impressed I immediately knew I had to learn more about it.
​
I spent the next two years training to become a Kinesiologist. The training completely changed the way I looked at my health and my perception of what it is to be ‘healthy’. The more I learned, the more I passionately believed that so many people out there with chronic health conditions could benefit from Kinesiology.
​
I qualified with a Distinction in Systematic Kinesiology, coming top of my class in the final exams.
