I consider myself as a sort of tool to aid people with their personal processes, especially with illnesses that they may be experiencing. I work with two basic modalities of treatment, depending on the situation and interest of the client.

Traditional Chinese Medicine
I work basically with acupuncture and traditional Chinese medicinal herbs. This is for people who are comfortable with being needled and/or who can/would like to receive herbal treatment. It can be used for practically any kind of health condition. I have worked especially with people with problems of muscular pain, allergies, anxiety/depression, headaches, weight problems, gynecological complaints, etc.
     I have a Diploma from Escuela Superior de Medicina Tradicional China in Spain, which is the official representative in Spain of the Faculty of Traditional Chinese Medicine of Beijing. This is a four-year program in Traditional Chinese Medicine which includes training in acupuncuture, medicinal herbs, and massage. Training includes practice hours in a clinic and the writing of a thesis.

Polarity Therapy
This is a type of therapeutic massage, which I often combine with foot hydromassage (and reflexology). It is based on removing energy blocks in the body and aiding with the circulation of energy within the body. Basic treatment involves touch, although it is not a typical massage with oil. It can also involve talking, visualization, diet work, and work with dreams.
     At times it is possible to mix the two techniques, however I usually find that people prefer one treatment modality or the other, and depending on the process happening at the moment, usually one or the other is more appropriate.
