Hi

I am presently studying holistic massage in London and would like to work in some form with people with disabilities when im qualified. My working background has been with people learning disabilities, mental health problems and physical disabilities, I also have a son with aspergers. I wanted to observe massage in practice if possible with someone working in some capacity within one of these fields.

If anyone has any contacts that might be helpful i would be really grateful, I live in south london.
Thanks

My nephew has this condition also and I can confirm that massage is a great joy for him. It took some time as you will expect but I hope you find someone in your area. good luck

Special yoga centre- yoga etc for the Special Child

Hi, I teach yoga at The Special Yoga Centre www.specialyoga.org.uk (to adults). However, the centre does lots of work for children, teenagers and adults with dissabilities. They are a registered charity and they have therapy rooms to rent at reasonable prices. Jo Manuel is an amazing woman who really has made a difference... check out the website, get in touch and see what happens...good luck!!
