Description

Holistic massage treats the whole person, looking after them not just physically, but emotionally too. Each of my treatments is therefore tailored to each individual’s specific needs. Seeking to find the root cause of the issue rather than purely treating the symptoms. Using a combination of deep tissue massage and more sensitive work I create a treatment which is right for my client. My regular clients are both male and female and are all different ages. Often people come to me with sports related injuries and strains and here I take a remedial approach, incorporating mobilisations and passive stretches, working if necessary deep into the tissues looking for release. Many people need time and space to relax, be heard, reconnect with their body and have their pains massaged, mobilised and eased. When I receive a massage, I want to be looked after and this is a driving force throughout my own work. I have been working professionally since 2008 and have worked with a wide range of people and conditions, the largest groups predominantly experiencing chronic pain and stress and anxiety. The majority of clients see symptoms reduced after receiving massage and feel less reliant on medical intervention. I see posture as pivotal in changing clients’ body behaviour, opening the chest, softening the arms, hips and knees, feeling more confident, breathing deeper and feeling more connected and themselves. I regularly recommend complementary exercise such as yoga or pilates, either a class or by giving clients some positions to practice at home. It’s not for everyone, but most clients, given the chance will embrace something if it is presented for them as individuals. Having a chance to let go and tune into our bodies is very important. Our bodies tell us when things aren’t quite right. Holistic massage works with us emotionally and physically to heal ourselves from within and to resonate that health on the outside. I have worked with people with chronic conditions and found that regular massage and a positive attitude towards life can make a difference towards a better quality of life which, in turn maintains good health. It’s a cycle which is central to our lives. Just planting the seeds of relaxation in people’s minds means they can take away techniques to use anywhere. Recognising the benefits of breathing more deeply to feel more healthy and relaxed; to aid sleep and to be used in times of stress when the client needs grounding and strength. Giving clients self-efficacy is integral to my work. I want to be able to give people the sense that they are capable of managing their own conditions alongside medical intervention, reducing visits to the doctor and giving them more freedom of choice. I have worked within the East Bristol community cultural and social groups, teaching massage techniques to Somalian women in a Wellspring wellbeing group, giving massage to women who experienced domestic violence and with the Dementia Care Trust. My work is constantly evolving through regular supervision with Andy Fagg at the Bristol College of Massage and Bodywork and frequent exchanges with colleagues at Roots to Health @ Wellspring and at the Relaxation Centre in Clifton where I also work. I also have a treatment room at my home on St George's Park. I completed my MTI Diploma in Massage and Bodywork, plus Level 4 Anatomy, Physiology and Pathology in 2008 and have since completed advanced training in Massage in Pregnancy with Shiatsu teacher and writer Suzanne Yates, Indian Head Massage with Bristol College of Massage and Bodywork and am about to embark next year on a Diploma in Thai Yoga Massage with Adam Carter. I am a mother of three children aged 7, 4 and 3 and both myself and my partner live and work in the East Bristol community.
