Support Georgia Juliana for advanced reflexology training

Donation protected
My name is Katarina Young, and I am a friend of Georgia Juliana Alexander, a talented massage therapist based in St. Lucia. I have created this fundraiser on her behalf, and in collaboration with her to gather support as she seeks to grow her practice and pursue advanced professional training in reflexology.

As person who is blind, Georgia Juliana has built a successful career through her passion for healing and helping others, and currently works at Body Holiday / La Sport in St. Lucia. She is highly skilled and extremely knowledgeable, and has helped countless people in her work. Take a moment to listen to Georgia Juliana tell her incredible life story here: More Than You See

Georgia Juliana has been accepted to an advanced reflexology training course in England, and is fundraising $15,000 USD (~$21,000 CAD) to cover the following expenses for her and a travelling companion (sighted guided):

- Program tuition
- Flights and other ground transportation
- Accommodation and meals for 2 weeks

What is reflexology? Reflexology targets specific points on the body such as on the feet or face that stimulate and unblock energy pathways in the body, and restore balance.

About the course: This is a specialized 6-day advanced training course that takes place over a 2 week period. It is led by Sue Ricks of the Sue Ricks School for Complementary Therapies (http://www.suericks.com/)

Upon completion of the course, Georgia Juliana will receive practicing certificates in the following areas:

- Reflexology for supporting people diagnosed with cancer
- Reflexology in Palliative Care
- Advanced Reflexology Techniques
- Gentle Touch Reflexology
- Hand Reflexology
- Reflexology in support of future parents (fertility) and current parents
- Parent care, including Reflexology for babies and children
- Diploma in Advanced GTR Techniques

Sue Ricks is a highly regarded trainer in the field of complementary therapies, with extensive experience in providing care and support for individuals diagnosed with cancer as well as for future and current parents. Her expertise ensures that participants will receive comprehensive instruction in specialised techniques tailored to meet the needs of diverse patient populations.

Thank you for supporting Georgia Juliana!
