the power of touch training
Oxfordshire
tpot: the power of touch was founded by Michelle Hammond in 2013 as a result of
the UK's first in-depth research in to 'the challenges of treating clients with
cancer in UK & Irish spa's and salons. After the initial research Michelle
worked with clinicians and specialists in the field of oncology and medicine to
understand what we could do and how complementary therapies could be utilised
more effectively for those living with dis-ease and life limiting health
conditions. Now an active ambassador for integrative health and lifestyle
medicine, Michelle works alongside numerous charities and health focused
organisations to bring the pillars of wellness front and center. Prior to
launching tpot, Michelle was responsible for leading, educating and designing
luxury spa, health and wellness teams and brands around the world. Building on
her initial and multi-disciplined range of clinical complementary therapy
skills. In addition to leading and evolving tpot (something she has always
proudly called her passion project), Michelle spent 7 years curating the health
and wellness concept and experiences, through design and deliverables,
throughout the Pegasus Life community living portfolio - with the aim of
revolutionising retirement living in the UK. She has also spent the last few
years in her consultancy capacity supporting the future of workplace wellness
strategies and meaningful wellness experience curation for large financial and
tech led institutions. All whilst still leading her private talking therapy
practise clinic one day a week supporting clients with their mental and
emotional wellbeing - particularly when faced with life limiting health
conditions, trauma and disease. Michelle has recently embarked on a field of
study in Traditional Chinese Medicine in the hope of achieving her doctorate in
the future and deepening the insights and experiences she can bring to her
wellness consultancy, teaching and private practise.
