back, neck & shoulder massages in Edinburgh

Located in Edinburgh , Kama Calm Holistic Therapies was set up by Kamila Banaszewska in 2012, with the aim of providing a wide range of effective, but low cost, holistic therapies.

Kamila believes in a holistic approach to health, where the body, mind and spirit are connected and constantly influence each other. There cannot be a balance in the body if the mind is stressed and out of balance. The main aim of the treatment is to bring back the balance. Every treatment starts with a detailed consultation followed by a custom-tailored treatment plan agreed with both client and therapist.

Kamila has been trained in various alternative therapies in various accredited institutions in the UK and in Poland. In 2010 she completed the VTCT Level 3 Diploma in Complementary Therapies, in 2012 she obtained the VTCT Certificate in Indian Head massage and also gained training in Ayurvedic treatments. She graduated with an Honours degree in Complementary Healthcare in Aromatherapy from Edinburgh's Napier University. Kamila is a member of the Federation of Holistic Therapies and also insured through them.

I’m Greg, a qualified pharmacist with over 10 years of experience working in healthcare, and the founder of The Holistic Pharmacist.

My work brings together my background in health and physiology with hands-on treatments designed to support physical recovery, relaxation, and overall wellbeing. I offer massage treatments and infrared light therapy that help reduce muscular tension, improve circulation, and give the body space to reset.

Many of the clients I work with lead busy or physically demanding lives - whether through work, training, or everyday stress. My treatments are designed to support the body when it’s under pressure, helping to release tight muscles, encourage recovery, and promote relaxation.

Each appointment begins with a short consultation so the treatment can be adapted to your needs on the day. Some sessions focus on deeper work to address areas of muscular tension, while others are more restorative, helping calm the nervous system and bring the body back into balance.

My aim is to provide treatments that are thoughtful, professional, and grounded in an understanding of how the body works, while creating a space where clients can fully relax and switch off.

Treating the body, supporting the mind.
