She has been a Massage Therapists since 1995, and is also recognized for Thai Massage and Sports Massage. Jan also has a passion for Equine Massage, and owns a horse named Max.

Her dream for complimentary and alternative medicine is that she would like to see both our doctors and the public more able to understand the alternatives to invasive measures and prescriptions relied on so heavily by allopathic medicine, so that natural healthcare modalities would be seen as a first source of healing, instead of viewed as a last resort.
