I believe in the mind and body connection, and how the body responds to stresses. Also the link between a persons thoughts, attitude, behavior and how it affects their physical health.

I have also completed courses in sport and fitness education in Japan, specializing in aqua and hydrotherapy working in that field for over 10 years.
