About Liz

After gaining a degree in English Literature at University College Cardiff, Liz moved to Norwich. Whilst working as a volunteer for several local counselling and health information services, she started training in massage, and developed an interest in health in its broadest sense.

In 1989 she gained an ITEC diploma in Massage, Anatomy & Physiology, and a Shirley Price Diploma in Aromatherapy. Since then she has trained in Indian Head Massage, Remedial Massage, Reflexology and Hot Stone Massage.

In 2000 Liz added Stress Management to her practice, having spent two years studying for a diploma with The Centre for Stress Management in London, which is run by Professor Stephen Palmer. The diploma included modules in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Rational Emotive Behaviour Therapy, Problem Focused Therapy, Multimodal Therapy, and Assertiveness Training.

As well as being in full time practice since 1989, Liz has set up and run two complementary medicine clinics with her business partner, a practitioner of Acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine. Their aim is to offer a down to earth approach to alternative medicine, and to make their treatments as accessible as possible to a wide range of people.

Liz is particularly interested in how emotional, mental and physical well being influence each other. She is a full member of the International Stress Management Association www.isma.org.uk and the International Federation of Aromatherapists www.ifaroma.org
