Howdy, My name is Angelo Frederick.
I have been a qualified and registered Chinese Medicine Practitioner for the last 15 years, providing massage treatments and meditation sessions. I have also qualified as a Biodynamic Massage Therapist and will soon be taking clients as a Trainee Psychotherapist (2025). I specialise in the bodywork form of Chinese Medicine called Qi Gong Tuina, as well as facilitating personalised guided visualisation meditations and self-cultivation/self-care practices.
How I work:
I work intuitively and holistically using Chinese Medicine, body psychotherapy, meditation/spiritual and energetic principles. My main interest is emotional/spiritual health and wellbeing, although as a bodywork modality physical symptoms are treated simultaneously. I have extensive experience treating a range of musculoskeletal issues and other common ailments in general practice, as well as in hospital and community services. In cooperation with the client I seek to impart a constant spirit of compassionate, non-judgmental self-enquiry.
Practice:
Community Work:
For five years whilst working at Better Lives, Islington (an NHS Drug & Alcohol service) I ran a well-attended weekly meditation and self-cultivation group - principally focussing on self-awareness, grounding and centring techniques. I also ran a fully booked Tuina clinic there offering hour long appointments. Since June 2020, I have been working with Community Massage London providing one to one bespoke meditation sessions and welfare calls to patients with mental health needs (anxiety and depression) referred via their GP and Social Prescribing Link Worker. As part of my community work, I also work with the survivors of the Grenfell Tower fire once a month at Lancaster West Resource Centre.
Meditation Journey:
I have been practising meditation as part of my own spiritual and developmental journey for the last 30 years. As such I have attended retreats in Peru, the Himalayas and Vipassana (Buddhist silent meditation).
To see what working with me would be like, have a read of these resources I've written for clients - Self-Massage & Self-Care Guide; Meditation Session Intro Guide, and go to the Testimonials page.
Blessings!
