I'm really pleased to anncounce that my Dorn Method Workshops have been accredited
by the Completmentary Therapists Association, one of the leading organisations representing
Complementary Therapists in the UK and Ireland. The increasing recognition of professional
bodies such as the FHT and CThA is very much welcomed and I hope this will help
to promote The Dorn Method throughout the UK where we really need to see more Dorn Method Therapists to meet the demand
of Back Pain sufferers.
Therapists belonging to the CThA who have Level III A & P and Massage qualification
will be able to gain CThA CPD points and insurance cover (of course there are no
pre-requisites required for those who just want to learn The Dorn Method for educational
purposes, self-help or to help family and friends).

Thomas Zudrell, a well known and seasoned top Dorn Method trainer came over to the
UK this weekend to deliver the very first UK Advanced Dorn Method workshop, and
what an educational experience it was! Talking to a packed room of Dorn Therapists
eager to learn more, Thomas was able to add so much to everybody's level of understanding.
What was clearly evident was the excitement that grew in everybody present. One
of the main messages Thomas gave was that Dorn should not be a treatment to be kept
within the isolation of a Therapists practice, but to be delivered as a self-help
therapy so patients can continue where the Therapist left off. We also had students
not only from the UK, but all the way from Nigeria, Slovenia and Australia, which
is of course 3 continents. Truly amazing! Then again, Thomas himself was training
in Hong Kong only last week, just showing how Dorn is spreading globally.

I'm really pleased
to announce the launch of a brand new
Back Pain therapy website. This website was created to help educate the
public about The Dorn Method. It provides plenty of information about The Dorn Method
with the aim of helping the public understand what Dorn is all about, and how it
can help if they're suffering from Back or joint pain.
Also included in the website is a
Dorn Therapist directory, called 'Find a Therapist' which will help website
visitors find a Dorn Therapist near to where they live. If you're a Dorn Therapist,
then why not use this website as an information point for any of your clients who
have questions relating to Dorn - that's what this website is for!

I thought it
would be very beneficial to get an article published which highlights how The Dorn
Method can help Therapists grow their practice. It was very kind of Choice Health
to publish this latest article, it's in their June/July 2010 issue.
As shown on the Why Learn The
Dorn Method page at this website, one of the reasons for learning Dorn,
apart from the benefits it brings to your client's from a health perspective, is
that Dorn is a relatively easy therapy to learn, and one that can bring lots of
word-of-mouth business, something vital to help your practice grow.

The Holistic Health Show at the NEC was a great place for me to share The Dorn Method
with other Therapists and to show examples of Dorn techniques. My aim was also to
demonstrate Dorn as a very serious contender in the field of Back and Joint Pain
therapy, and therefore a great skill for Therapists to learn which can offer enormous
opportunities for them.
The show was a wonderful opportunity to meet and talk with so many therapists, which
I really enjoyed, and also meeting many from previous workshops which was especially
lovely. If you were one of those who came over to chat, and have further questions,
please visit the Forum and post any questions you might have there (so we can share
it with others), or if you prefer, just send me an email and I'll be happy to help.

I'm excited to announce the launch of the Dorn Method Forum. It's taken a while
to get it up on the web, but now it's finally here and ready. One of the aims of
the forum is to give me an easy way to answer questions that people have about Dorn,
and instead of just being able to answer one person at a time, I can now share information
with everybody.
Of course the Forum is there for all to use and enjoy, so please do register, and
then subscribe to any Forum categories you'd like to keep up to date with - and
get posting your messages too! Here's the link to The UK Dorn
Method Forum.

This was my first visit to Scotland and what an eye opener it was. Edinburgh is
an amazing city, with such friendly, fun loving people - as you can tell by the
group photo here with everyone at the Workshop having a laugh.
Just goes to show these workshops are not all work and can involve a bit of play
- or was there something in the tea at break time? I think they're practicing jaw
correction self-help excercises, but I reckon I need to be a little more careful
next time and ensure I keep my eyes open for that Scottish Whisky jar - lol.

I've just heard from a therapist who was on one of my workshops that the organisation
she belongs to, The Complementary Therapists Association, have now added The Dorn
Method to their insurance too. That's excellent news for therapists who belong to
CThA.
Their website can be found
here.

Congratulations to the happy :0) bunch of students who attended the first Dorn Workshop
of the year in Stratford upon Avon. Just thought I'd post the nice group photo here.
As I remarked recently in another post, it's so nice to meet such lovely people
at a workshop, then always a shame to say goodbye just when you feel you get to
know them! But of course we'll be following up and keeping in touch on the progress
of their new Dorn skills. Well done, you were all really good students who got on
well and were really keen to learn!

No, it's nothing
to do with the fact that I live in William Shakespeares Stratford upon Avon that
I find myself again writing articles for publication - I hate writing (lol)!
However, The Dorn Method is such a wonderful and effective therapy for treating
Back and Joint Pain, so I believe it should be a part of every Complementary Therapists
toolkit, so I'm working hard to get it as well known as possible in the UK. This
is my third article to date, and I'm very thankful for the FHT to include in their
January 2010 issue of International Therapist Magazine.

FHT Website here and to see why I think everyone should learn The Dorn Method,

I never knew High Wycombe was so hilly! I was invited to talk about The Dorn Method
last night (Monday 18 Jan 2010) to a really lovely bunch of people from in and around
the High Wycombe area at the local Federation of Holistic Therapists (FHT) meeting.
There were around 20 people present, and I think I can safely say that everyone
enjoyed the evening. I tried to do quite a bit of demonstrating so that people there
could get a good understanding of what Dorn actually involves.
I'm always keen to hold talks and Dorn Method demonstrations, and to show just how
beneficial Dorn is as a treatment for Back and Joint pain; so if you'd like me to
hold a talk for your local group, then please do
get in touch with me.
