She has always had a passion for complementary therapies (CT). As a child, she recalls receiving the healing touch from her grandmother. As an adult, she would turn to CT to recover from a horrible car accident that threatened her career. But being a believer in non-traditional health therapies was sometimes an isolating and challenging experience, says Watson. That is, until 2004, when she joined the Complementary Therapies Nurses’ Interest Group (CTNIG), one of 31 interest groups affiliated with the Registered Nurses’ Association of Ontario (RNAO). Each group represents a unique specialty or population within nursing, and offers RNs an incredible range of professional and personal resources and support, as well as career development opportunities.
