Hi, welcome to the blog. A number of years ago I trained and practised in sports massage whilst working as a trainee architect and studying at West Kent College. The time came when I had to make the choice of which career to pursue full time and Architecture won. A couple of years back I decided I would like to take up my massage skills again in order to diversify from my architectural work. It soon became obvious that in order to set up a fully insured practice I would need to go back to college to obtain the necessary qualifications and join the FHT. I have recently completed studies to gain my qualifications in A&P (anatomy and physiology) and swedish/body massage. Alongside studying and continuing with my architectural practice I have built a new studio/treatment room and am now up and running. I am returning to college next term in order to study further in sports/remedial massage and injury diagnosis.

Equestrian Boot Camp

Thought I'd try a new kind of event for the Body Mechanics trade stand and was lucky enough to get an invitation to attend an Equestrian Boot Camp from my good friend and top dressage trainer Wizz Clack.

It was a three day event from Friday 3rd Sept through to Sunday, so I went along on Thursday to set up my treatment tent in advance. I had an indoor pitch so was able to get power for my heated treatment table which turned out to be a winner!

There were 20 riders at the camp who all had a half hour sports massage included in their weekend package. I was delighted to be able to treat 19 of them with about 10 booking in for follow up treatments on the Sunday.

All in all it turned out to be an exhausting weekend but thoroughly rewarding with some great feedback.

Special thanks to Jane for organising the event and Ronnie for keeping me fed and watered with some fantastic home made food....................especially the CAKES!

I had a great time with a great bunch of people who were all very friendly and welcoming. I'd love to do it again and if invited would only do one thing differently.........................take my caravan so I don't miss out on those boozy evenings in the club house!

Thanks again, hope to see you next camp.

Hope to post some pics later
