 About Me My journey towards becoming an Ayurvedic Practitioner began during a Yoga training in Rishikesh, India in 1998. Upon arrival for the course I became unwell with dysentry and, although I was already a believer in holistic medicine, I didn't yet have any real skills to heal myself. It was destiny then that I met Dr Ravi, a kind Ayurvedic physician who guided me back to strength from that illness and a quick return to Yoga classes. I continued taking herbs and his dietary advice for 2 months and left Rishikesh much stronger than I had arrived with a taste of some of the healing potential in this wonderful system of energetic medicine.
EducationIt was then with much surprise that in 2001 I discovered a course in Ayurvedic Medicine based in London. I enrolled and graduated from Middlesex with a BSc. Complementary Health, Ayurveda in 2006. During my studies I undertook clinical internships in both India and Sri Lanka then spent 6 months in India again immediately after graduation, working with Ayurvedic Doctors in Mysore and Lucknow. During this time I also took my first Yoga teacher training certificate during a 2 month intensive, living a Yogic lifestyle while studying under our teacher's watchful supervision. Since settling in Brighton I have married, become a father to our beautiful daughter and continued my journey with Ayurveda through clinic days in London as the Ayurvedic Practitioner at Tri Yoga and from our treatment space at home in Coldean, Brighton. Previously to discovering Ayurveda I trained as a Reiki therapist and practiced holistic and deep tissue massage from 1995. I continue my professional development through the Ayurvedic Practitioner's Association here in the UK and regularly attend self development workshops to further my skills as a practitioner.
 My Approach I believe that we are all on a healing journey in this life. It has been my privilege and good fortune to be guided by excellent tutors and spiritual teachers towards becoming an Ayurvedic Practitioner. By connecting to the heart of this knowledge that is so ancient yet still so applicable and helping others to understand themselves better I can strive to be of some useful service to humanity. I see myself as a street sign, perhaps pointing to an easier route towards better health, enhanced immunity and greater happiness. I offer ongoing support and care to my clients after designing a tailor made program according to their unique needs. Guidance in relaxation techniques, Yoga or other exercise that is appropriate for your constitution, diet and lifestyle as well as therapies are all tailored to your requirements. And Ayurvedic therapies needn't only be enjoyed as part of an ongoing program. The luxury, warmth and deep nurturing of these gorgeous therapies can also be experienced as a one off or as a lovely gift for a friend or loved one.
