I use a combination of Swedish, deep tissue, and Hawaiian Lomi Lomi to provide a slow, flowing, deeply relaxing full body massage. Strokes, using soft palms and forearms can run the full length of the body. 

​

Integrative: all parts of the body are connected and not worked just in isolation.

​

Slow: the massage will never feel rushed thus providing the body with the appropriate information that all is well and that it is safe to fully let go and relax.

​

Deep Tissue: I use certain deep tissue techniques to tease out any knots and aid the recovery of sore, overworked muscles. Once released, you will feel freer and deeper relaxation can then occur.

​

Lomi Lomi: this is a sacred, traditional Hawaiian form of massage that is known as Loving Hands. It is profoundly relaxing and sensuous. I was taught by someone who had studied with a Kahuna master in Hawaii. It is a beautiful, fluid meditation in touch which is a joy to receive and to give. I mostly use my forearms in long, nurturing strokes that cover the whole body to leave you feeling blissfully surrendered and whole.

​

Stretching: I often include a few assisted stretches but can include more if you wish.

​

Sports Massage: I have an ITEC Level 3 sports massage qualification so am happy to work specifically on any areas of concern if you let me know in advance of the session.

​

Listening: bodywork can often reveal things to us on a psychological level. I am happy to receive whatever is going on for you in your life, and whatever may surface for you during a session. I can tailor the session in a suitable way to support you; physically, mentally and emotionally. I am currently in training to become a counsellor.

​

Bespoke: sessions are designed to suit your own unique requirements so I encourage you to be open to discussing with me how you would like your massage to be and what outcomes you hope to experience.

​

The Senses: I no longer use essential oils in a massage but I do use them in a diffuser to add to the calming nature of the space I have created to work in. I have carefully created many playlists of suitable, ambient music (not that awful generic massage music!) played through a good quality sound system. The room is quiet, peaceful, and always warm.

​

Shower: it is important to be freshly showered before having a massage. If you are unable to do so, you are welcome to shower here before and afterwards.
