Resolving Chronic Pain Clinic · Carrickmines
A very warm welcome to you, thank you for visiting my profile.
Is the pain you are experiencing affecting the quality of your life?
Do you feel bewildered by the feedback you have received from healthcare practitioners?
Does it feel like no one knows whats wrong with you?
If the answer is yes, then you are just like the majority of people I have taught over the last twenty years or so. They have reduced their pain substantially or completely.
A little bit about me: my extensive body-based movement background is grounded in teaching psychology, as a dance and movement specialist. I have 20 years clinical experience of teaching patients with neuroplastic symptoms. I currently work in private practice as a pain relief movement specialist with a relational approach. Using my experience with a large and diverse caseload, I teach resolving chronic pain in consultation mostly online, deliver guest lectures internationally and run teacher-training programmes.
Writing: I am one of four editors of Psychophysiological Disorders: Trauma Informed, Interprofessional Diagnosis and Treatment, 2019. Resolving Chronic Pain Blogs.
Lecturer in Movement and Psychology. Specialist background in Laban, Body Mind Centering, Contact Improvisation, Authentic Movement and non-verbal communication.
Whole Health Medicine Institute (WHMI) practitioner, 2014 and have subsequently taught movement workshops on the WHMI programme.
Research: Pilot studies in PPGP and chronic pain with the Neuroscience Department University College Cork.
Body Control Pilates Supervising Teacher – lecturer on University Edinburgh Dance Science Masters course. A member of The Irish Pain Society and have worked with Chronic Pain Ireland for over 10 years.
