Positive Nurturing Touch, Learn Family Massage
facebook.com/events/1315684345622603
As a qualified practitioner of the Massage in Schools Programme (MISP) I am bringing the MISP routine into the local community...for children of all abilities up to the age of 12 and their parents or carers.
This encourages positive nurturing touch, body sovereignty, clear boundaries, relaxation and embodiment.

‘ The Massage in Schools Programme is a fun, whole school, preventative strategy for promoting respect and reducing bullying. It is a strategy that I feel should be considered by all primary schools fitting, as it does, into all the initiatives’.
~ John Stead - NSPCC Education Advisor and DfES anti-bullying co-ordinator for West Yorkshire
