As written in my introduction (The Journey Begins), massage is something that I really enjoy receiving for the longest time but soon after, I became a freelance massage therapist started offering treatment massage to provide relief tailored to an individual’s well being and subsequently became a massage trainer. Currently under my belt, I have rendered a total of 1237 contact hours (inclusive of 364 class / practical / coursework hours).

Married with two children, at this stage, I am still full time in the performing arts industry based in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia (managing, producing, directing and occasionally, performing).

I am currently one of the oncology massage trainer in the country and have completed the complementary technique of therapeutic massage for people living with life limiting conditions with the late Mdm Chandrika Puventhran. I am a Certified Instructor and a member of International Association of Infant Massage.

Among the other massage modalities that I have learnt include Thai / Swedish massage, advance sports injury massage, advance senior citizen massage with Wellness Arts Massage School and urut batin (manhood therapy) technique with Sifu Mohd Raussein.

I do practice and offer the doTERRA AromaTouch Technique (have also completed the doTERRA Essential Oil Specialist certification); combine it with a massage session, the AromaTouch Technique definitely can be one of the best aromatherapy massage that one can try.

Initially, I was thinking to be an Osteopath. However, unfortunately, things didn’t go as planned at the end of Year 1. Nevertheless, my thanks to my lecturer back then (Mr Jules Rampal, Mr Van-Nam Chauveau, Mr Pierre Rubert, Ms Julie Colleu, Mr Arnaud Le Coz, Mr Pascal Moniot, Ms Dominique Boudet and Mr Jonathan Benaud for their valuable lesson imparted on me).

Right after that, I didn’t want the knowledge that I gained from osteopathy to go to waste. Hence, to also continue training my hand, I then took up massage therapy.

In my treatment, I do combined what I learn in osteopathy (although limited) namely muscle energy technique, myofascial release technique and mobilisation technique with what I have learnt from the massage courses.

Beside catering to masses, I am currently providing massage services to the senior citizen, physically challenged individual, transgenders and individuals who are suffering from disorder or life limiting condition. Basically, to serve community who may be shy or unable to go out to get a massage (but yet, needed one). I have assisted patient who suffered from mobility challenges, stroke, spasticity paralysis, lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, fibromyalgia, Parkinson, Evan’s Syndrome and many other sport related injury.
