Eric Demmon BSc CST

I left Reading University with a degree in Physics. I started my working life training for management in road transport and then settled into computing a couple of years later. I spent around 25 years doing all sorts of I.T. stuff - software, hardware, team management and customer support - I had a very interesting time! Twenty five years later it came to a natural end, so I looked for another direction to go in.

In 1997 I completed my first professional complementary therapy training; this was in therapeutic massage at the Pembury Hospital, Tunbridge Wells. Later in 1998 I trained in sports massage and sports equipment therapy with the Alison Rostron school in Norwich.

At around the same time I was also studying Shiatsu with the East Anglian School of Shiatsu, near Ipswich. It was during these Shiatsu studies that I first encountered CranioSacral Therapy and found it totally intriguing.

In 1999 I attended my first workshop with the Upledger Institute, UK and subsequently continued my training with them over the next few years.

I successfully completed the Upledger techniques certification programme in 2006 - that's the meaning of the "CST" qualification.

I will always continue to hone my skills and awareness by attending courses and workshops in, what I feel, are related and beneficial complementary therapy areas.
