A master practitioner in neuro-linguistic programming, Gill has provided stress management training for 22 years with clients including British Telecom, HMRC and Atkins Global.
As CEO at Essentials for Health, she became a massage industry pioneer introducing many new programmes to the UK such as 'Massage in Schools' from Sweden and 'The Infant Massage Instructors Certificate' from the USA.
Author of the Manifesto for a Pro-Touch Society, Gill intends to influence society both as individuals and in our organisations to become more nurturing and pro-positive appropriate touch.
Her turning point was, in fact, a crisis that became an opportunity to rewrite the story of her life. Having chosen a career in social work she followed the usual career path up to 1989 when a journey to Kenya proved to be her wake-up call.
After climbing Mount Kenya to almost 17,000 feet and disorientated by altitude sickness, she became lost for five days. Alone and frightened, Gill had to call upon all of her inner resources and personal beliefs.
She discovered an inner strength that up until then has been untested – a strength that twenty years later she is still able to call upon to take steps forward in living a true and authentic life where she is truly living her purpose.
Gill’s passion for both her business and the potential of massage therapy make her an excellent business management speaker and an ideal choice of motivational speaker for any health or wellbeing conference.
She strives to ensure that her business promotes a sense of community and security imbuing her staff, tutors and trainees with the same positive and mindful ideologies that she herself shares.
