How I work
​​​As an experienced massage therapist I offer therapeutic massage therapy to treat a range of issues including muscle soreness and pain, specific injuries but most importantly I offer you time to relax and unwind. I am based in Hotwells and have a treatment room in my home.
I work using slow, nurturing strokes which trigger the parasympathetic nervous system helping to restore balance and help to you feel relaxed and calm. The relaxation response is the state in which the heart rate slows and blood pressure goes down. The production of stress hormones also decrease as feel good hormones are released. Feel good hormones such as endorphins, serotonin and dopamine positively affect emotions and promote calm and relaxation.
​
I use a range of advanced massage techniques including deep tissue, fascia release, compression, soft tissue release and mobilisation. Each treatment is tailored to your needs.​​​​​​
