My aim with bodywork is to address specific areas of pain and tension and find a way to help you to engage with your body and your process of release in a meaningful way. 

When treating physical pain, reduced mobility, structural imbalance or dysfunction, the best results come when we recognise that the physical and emotional aspects of Self are interconnected and inseparable.

I create a space for healing and readjustment to take place by tailoring the treatment to your personal needs.  It is essential to work at a pace that your body finds acceptable.  I am always thorough and purposeful and, when needed, I work deeply, my treatments, however, are not a “no pain, no gain” exercise, I intend for all treatments I offer to be empowering, nurturing and effective.

I have been a massage therapist and body worker since 2001.  I have a background in philosophy, psychology and cultural studies, which has fuelled my interest in and understanding that the human body is a complex system of communication and consciousness as well as a fascinating biomechanical organism. I have trained in Nutritional Therapy and have personal interests in dance, yoga and meditation, all of which have been formative in my work.
