I specialise in tailored treatments for athletes, office workers, and individuals seeking stress relief, combining sports massage, remedial techniques, and Pilates to address soft tissue conditions.My approach prioritises client-specific needs, supported by ongoing professional development and affiliations with CThA and CNHC.

Services
Sports Massage
Targeted sports massage addresses muscle tension and injuries for athletes. Combines deep tissue techniques with recovery strategies to enhance performance and prevent setbacks. Ideal for runners, gym enthusiasts, and active individuals seeking improved mobility and reduced pain.
Remedial Massage
Clinical remedial massage focuses on treating specific musculoskeletal conditions. Uses trigger point therapy and myofascial release to alleviate chronic pain and improve posture. Beneficial for office workers with repetitive strain injuries or individuals recovering from accidents.
Reflexology
Gentle reflexology stimulates pressure points in the feet to promote relaxation and balance. Encourages stress reduction and improved circulation through targeted techniques. Suitable for clients seeking mental calmness alongside physical rejuvenation without deep tissue work.
Hot Stone Massage
Hot stone therapy uses heated basalt stones to melt away muscle tension. Alternates between deep heat application and Swedish massage strokes for ultimate relaxation. Particularly effective for chronic stiffness and stress-related discomfort in shoulders and back.
Mat Pilates
Mat Pilates classes strengthen core muscles while improving flexibility and posture. Combines traditional exercises with adaptive modifications for all fitness levels. Helps office workers counteract sedentary habits and athletes enhance body awareness through controlled movements.
