I am a holistic well-being professional specialising in Yoga, Holistic Life Coaching, Table Yoga Massage and Reiki. I’ve also trained in Breath-work and meditation, and Sound Energy Therapy. A long spell of ill health over two decades ago took me on a journey of self-discovery and learning, and I have been diving into the sea of endless possibilities ever since. Through years of study and practice of various disciplines, my goal is to support and guide you on your own transformational journey, to help you blossom, grow and re-discover the unique YOU. I guide my sessions in a safe and nurturing space, through compassion, acceptance and patience. It will be my absolute pleasure and honour to work with you.
I have over 35 years experience as a massage therapist and specialise in Deep tissue, sports, remedial massage and Lymphatic Drainage. I am also a trained counsellor and Somatic Experiencing practitioner. I created the Somatic Therapies Centre as a place of calm and peace to support your wellness journey with comprehensive care for body, mind, and spirit. I am passionate about delivering high-quality, client-centred care, helping individuals reconnect with their bodies, alleviate discomfort, and return to the activities they cherish. I believe that every client deserves a treatment uniquely tailored to their needs, whether they are seeking recovery from physical strain, stress relief, or simply a peaceful space to unwind. By blending technical proficiency with an intuitive approach, I cultivate a supportive and welcoming atmosphere where individuals feel listened to, appreciated, and cared for.
