During this time she has expanded her qualifications by training in various holistic therapies to support anybody with a long term condition or short term illness. Training in centres such as the University of Glasgow, Royal Marsden and Velindre Hospital. She recently won Complimentary Therapist of the Year from the Federation of Holistic Therapists.
Her specialisms are working with lymphoedema and scars, but loves the variety of treatments she can provide to clients to help them with the side effects of treatment, both physically and emotionally.
Kate likes to support her clients with not only hands on therapy but through self management techniques building confidence for clients to support themselves.
