Who I am
With many years of experience as a support worker, I have dedicated my career to helping adults with learning disabilities. This role has been incredibly rewarding and has allowed me to make a positive impact on many lives. Currently, I work as a massage therapist/foot health practitioner and I still have the privilege of seeing some of the wonderful individuals I once supported.
Expanding Foot Care Services
During my time in support work, I noticed a significant need for specialised foot care services that support workers typically cannot provide. My clients already know and trust me, especially when it comes to caring for their feet. This realisation sparked an idea: why not offer nail trimming services as well? To ensure I provide the highest level of care, I trained to become a Foot Health Practitioner at the Institute of Podiatrists. Now, I can offer that extra layer of care and support.
A Comfortable and Enjoyable Experience
I understand that clinical settings can sometimes feel intimidating. Some clients may find masks, aprons, and clinical uniforms daunting. To create a more approachable atmosphere, I wear non-medical-looking scrubs. My primary goal is to ensure that your experience is both enjoyable and comfortable.
I am deeply committed to delivering exceptional care, comfort, and the highest hygiene standards. You can trust that all instruments are meticulously sterilised and undergo regular annual maintenance. Your safety and reassurance are my top priorities.
