Meet Emma
Contrast Therapy Coach
Hiya, I'm Emma, a fully qualified Contrast Therapy coach, Mum of 3, wife to Matt, lover of movement, the outdoors, 80's music and cheesy jokes.
Following 10 years working in a corporate environment, I left paid work to be a full time Mum. I retrained as a Teaching Assistant and work part time in a school with young children.
Turning 40 was a huge milestone for me. I felt stuck in the role of Mum, lacking identity, stressed juggling kids, mainly solo, as my husband was often away with work. The stress was taking its toll. I wasn't sleeping, my motivation and energy levels were low, I was drinking too much and my health was suffering. So, I got curious and began a health and well being journey to find out if I could help myself to feel better.
The last 6 years have involved giving up alcohol for 18 months, group life coaching sessions, regular fasting, completing a marathon and ultra marathon, reconnecting with nature, much internal reflection and of course a journey with the cold including cold showers, lake swimming and ice baths.
I remember my first cold shower, many years ago now. It was cold, left me gasping for breath and it was not an experience I wanted to hurry back to. However, something instinctively kept pulling me back and gradually, slowly I exposed myself to more cold conditions. Why you may ask? Because of how it makes me feel. My energy levels and mood are improved and I just show up in the world as a better Mum, wife, friend and daughter.
Following my training, I now know the science behind that feeling and am passionate about sharing this knowledge with you, so you can feel the power of the cold and heat.
