Meet the team and find out why we do what we do.

Jennifer Young is an award winning pioneer of touch therapies for those affected by cancer. She entered the world of wellness after being invited to collaborate with her local NHS hospital to create natural skincare for cancer patients.

When she realised that cancer patients were ignored by the beauty industry she developed accredited professional training, allowing wellness practitioners to welcome those affected by cancer into their salons, spas, clinics and rooms.

Support for women experiencing a natural menopause followed after 10 years of working alongside cancer patients and their families.

It was a natural progression for Jennifer to develop supportive therapies for the many of us facing mental health challenges.

Jennifer also has a degree in Biology and postgraduate qualifications in law and occupational health.

Before she began needling, Jennifer worked around the globe as a management consultant and education provider, helping large organisations to manage their risk.

She has amassed many wellness qualifications, she is a nutritional therapist,  an aromatherapist, a product formulator, beauty and body therapist and acupuncturist and coach.

The Jennifer Young Training School reaches therapists in 108 countries. Our team has trained tens of thousands of practitioners.

With a decade of experience in architecture, Ana has been attuned to the therapeutic qualities that our environments can hold in facilitating our internal experiences - our emotions, behaviours, and overall quality of life. The aesthetics and simplicity she has always sought in external spaces are intricately connected to her inner landscape. This has led her to explore the subtle energies that permeate both worlds.

Tracy Stockdale

Acupuncturist, Massage Therapist, Reiki Healer

_

Tracy specialises as an Oncology soft touch therapist, helping patients with cancer and other medical issues. She is a reiki practitioner offering holistic massage and treatments.

Tracy spent 34 years in the care industry, the last twelve years as a trainer. The life of a trainer meant that she worked long hours and travelled a lot, she also spent a lot time away from home. In January 2020, Tracy was diagnosed with Lobular Carcinoma Insitu (LCIS) which starts off as a benign breast condition, however her's led to surgery in March 2020, the day after lockdown was announced. She made a good recovery and returned to work, but menopausal symptoms took over her life, physically & mentally after surgery. In August 2021, she collapsed at home and was diagnosed with burnout and bradycardia. Tracy decided it was time to slow down and rethink her work/life balance.

When her children were growing up, I had studied holistic therapies and achieved a Diploma in Indian Head Massage but hadn’t really done anything with it. She decided, that due to my career in the care industry that she had many transferable skills, to go back to studying and updated her qualifications in massage and holistic therapies.

Tracy's friend introduced her to Jennifer Young Training School and her new journey began as she enrolled on the Oncology soft touch therapy post graduate diploma. She achieved Reiki level 1&2 and Guided Meditation teaching diploma and she is currently working towards Menopause Practitioner Diploma.
