"The Phoenix symbolises rebirth. In Egyptian mythology it lived in the desert for 500 years and then consumed itself by fire, later to be reborn from the ashes".
Claire Britton is the driving force behind Phoenix Therapy and is a highly experienced, fully qualified therapist. She is a member of the Complementary Therapists Association and fully adheres to their Code of Ethics.
Claire holds Diplomas in Reflexology, On-Site Acupressure Massage, Sports Massage Therapy, Oriental Face Massage, Warm Bamboo Massage and Spinal Touch Therapy. She is also qualified in Thermal Auricular Therapy (ear candling). Furthermore, she holds a Level 2 Award in Chair-based Exercise from the Central YMCA. She is also trained in basic First Aid. Claire strongly believes in regular study and additional courses to maintain and enhance her skills portfolio.
Acupressure and the benefits it brings is a marked interest of Claire's and this has led her to develop a range of self-help seminars on the subject.
Claire has particular experience working with clients with chronic conditions such as arthritis and feels that exercise and complementary therapy is beneficial to their emotional and physical well-being. Claire strongly believes in the client being at the heart of the treatment and works towards this throughout each session. It is thought that between 60 – 80% of all illnesses are stress related and cause nearly two thirds of our visits to GPs, consequently Claire allows time for the individual, focusing on their needs with the aim of promoting relaxation and revitalisation.
Additionally, Claire has a network of appropriately qualified and experienced therapists who are able to provide additional therapies such as Indian Head Massage, Aromatherapy and Reiki for the Pamper Parties and the Wedding Packages.
