AB Holistic Therapies - Edinburgh

Welcome to AB Holistic Therapies! My Name is Agnieszka Borowiec. I’m thrilled to share a little about myself and the journey that has brought me here. From the moment I started my journey into holistic health, I became fascinated by the human body – particularly the fascia. Yes, that web of connective tissue that most people overlook. But let me tell you, it’s a game changer when it comes to wellbeing!

I’ve gathered quite the toolbox of qualifications over the years, including:

- Holistic Massage
- Traditional Thai Massage
- Advanced Myofascial Release
- Multiple specialized courses in Myofascial Release (I can’t get enough!)
- Aesthetic Face Therapy and Aesthetic Osteopathy with the fabulous Marie Margo
- Face Split Massage with the talented Larisa Vitvinova
- Vacuum Therapy for both face and body from the Body Sign school
- Kinetic Chain Release and Connective Tissue Release courses with the incredible Hugh Gilbert

With this array of skills, I’ve dived headfirst into the world of deep reconstructive face therapies. They’re a real lifesaver for anyone dealing with face and jaw tension, migraines, swelling, and even facial asymmetry. Who knew that tension could make us look like we’ve just stepped off a rollercoaster?

But beyond the qualifications, it’s my caring attitude that I cherish most. I genuinely want to provide a nurturing space where you can relax, unwind, and let all those worries slip away. Here at AB Holistic Therapies, it’s not just about treating symptoms; it’s about building a partnership in your journey to wellness.

So if you're ready to embark on this holistic adventure with me, let’s uncover the wonders of your body together! Who knows, we might even have a few laughs along the way. Your wellbeing awaits!
