ABOUT ME

I'm Tish Joyce and I live in Nairn in the Scottish Highlands, after moving from England to simplify my life and find balance. I've been inquisitive about the role that our mind, emotions, family, and personality play in our overall health since I was a child. Growing up in a large family, with Indian/Irish roots, mealtimes were a central part of family life. As a GP, my Mum always instilled the importance of healthy eating and digestion and I loved the smells of turmeric, coconut and cinnamon in my Goan Grandma's cooking. I followed in their footsteps, developing a passion for healthy home cooking, and now as a healer.

After having my daughter at eighteen, I continued to study and work full time, so finding balance was often elusive. I did everything to the max: work hard, play hard and exercise hard. I flew all over Europe in my corporate career and as an extreme runner, ran solo across 6 countries - a marathon a day for 7weeks. I thought that balance was being extreme in all aspects of life! My passion for Ayurveda began over 20 yrs ago, when I had a complete turnaround of my mental and physical health after treatment. I was fascinated by the idea that we can heal ourselves and learnt as much as I could. It was my granddaughter's recurring skin disorders, gastrointestinal issues and allergies that western medicine failed to remedy over 13 yrs, that made me finally decide to become an Ayurvedic Healer. I left the corporate world in 2021 to immerse myself in full time study of Ayurveda. This was just a short time after my Mum's sudden death, and I recall the realisation that I had found my 'dharma', my reason for being. I know that I am continuing my Mum's work, as she dedicated her life to her patients. I've been fortunate to have been taught at the Ayurvedic Institute UK, by the only teachers in the West, with over 25yrs of continuous practice and I continue to evolve my knowledge with lifelong learning of Ayurveda. I offer Ayurvedic Consultations, Talking Therapy, Traditional Ayurvedic Marma Massage and Shirodhara for the full range healing therapies. I am passionate about spreading the word about the incredible science of Ayurveda and the clip below, at the start of my studies gives a little insight into my passion. My practice continues to grow organically, through personal recommendations, as more people understand how they can self heal with Ayurveda. I've seen great patient successes with Obesity, Depression, Anxiety, CFS, ME, Fibromyalgia, Endometriosis, Eczema, Allergies, IBS, Coeliac, GURD, PCOS, Fertility, Menopause, Migraine, Joint issues and many more. Ayurveda is my reason for being, and it’s a privilege to help others to heal themselves naturally. My simple aim is to unravel the mystery of natural human self healing.
