I am passionate about massage, as well as other complementary therapies, to help heal the body, and quite possibly the mind. My skills can help those suffering with sports related injuries, and postural problems, as well as relieving stress and anxiety to promote an overall healthy lifestyle. I have several years experience as a massage therapist initially within reputable local spa and salons, and am presently a sports massage therapist at a local Chiropractic clinic. However, my main business is to offer therapies in the comfort, convenience and privacy of peoples homes. I love to visit my clients at their homes as they are more relaxed and comfortable in their own environment, and it helps me to know them better so I can give them the care, attention and time to tailor make the appropriate treatment for them. My qualifications include Holistic Therapies and Sports Massage both at level 3 and 4 standard through Weston College.

Benefits:
Improved circulation
The pressure created by the massage technique facilitates circulation as it moves the blood around and through congested areas. The release of this same pressure causes new blood to flow in. This action helps flush lactic acid from the muscles and improves the circulation of the lymph fluid which carries metabolic waste away from muscles and internal organs, resulting in lower blood pressure and improved body function and enhancing blood flow.
Pain relief
Sessions can target specific areas of muscular pain like a sprain or back spasm to promote healing, or they can be used to help manage the chronic pain that comes with conditions like Fibromyalgia and arthritis.
Management of fatigue, depression and anxiety
Massage therapy can help manage anxiety and fatigue because it reduces pain from muscle tension caused by stress and can help manage sleep disturbances and insomnia. Sleep is a vital function and essential for the body and mind to repair and regenerate. Sleep deprivation have significant adverse effects on the immune system, the nervous system and ability to concentrate as well as our overall energy levels. Massage therapy has been shown to improve sleep and the ability to relax and therefore reduce the symptoms of anxiety.

Deep tissue massage is done using deep finger pressure with strokes that are firm and slow and is ideal for major muscle groups like the neck or lower back. It can also be used to relieve strain and treat injuries in the joints and tendons. It has several therapeutic effects and can be used to treat many different conditions, including:
Lowers High Blood Pressure
As deep tissue massage works on the deep layers of tissue in the body, it also has a beneficial impact on your blood flow.
Reduces Stress And Anxiety
Studies have shown that massage can increase the production of a hormone called oxytocin associated with positive emotions
Treats Back Pain
Studies have shown that the effect of deep tissue massage significantly reduces chronic lower back pain
Helps Manage Labor Pain
Studies have supported the claim that massage therapy can be an effective way to reduce labor pain during pregnancy. Women who received massage therapy have reported decreased depression, anxiety, and leg and back pain.
Decreases Arthritis Symptoms

Whilst based on the style of Swedish massage it incorporates a combination of other techniques involving stretching, compression, friction, toning, and trigger point response techniques similar to Acupressure and Shiatsu. For the sports person this can help pre-event by warming up and preparing the body for exercise, helping to optimise performance and prevent injuries. Post-event can aid in recovery and injury rehabilitation.
Benefits include:
Greater overall flexibility
Massage helps lengthen and expands the muscle tissues in multidirectional manner.
Stress and Pain Reduction
When a person receives a sports massage, their body releases neurotransmitters called endorphins which are the body's natural pain reliever. This can help to decrease anxiety, provide pain relief, improve mood and enhance a person's state of well-being.
Improved blood flow
Massage boosts the the circulation of blood to the muscle tissues in the same way as exercise does. It also helps dilate the blood vessels of blood which allows oxygen and nutrition to be transported more efficiently.
Stimulates relaxation
The generation of heat, with increased blood flow and improved flexibility helps promote relaxation.
