All About Me

My Journey

My love for holistic massage was initially sparked when I worked in retail and hospitality. The mental and physical toll on my body from being on my feet all day led me to try some alleviation and healing. I felt incredible, rejuvenated and energised. My muscle tensions were relieved and my mood and spirit lifted.

​

It wasn't until my accident on holiday that I decided to train into the profession because I wanted to teach others the powers of natural healing through complementary therapy used alongside your usual medical care to provide the ultimate healing experience.

​

I damaged two of my cervical disc and some ligaments in a water accident. For a long time I was experiencing agonising pain to my upper body, stiffness, headaches, muscle spasm, all which I had to control to some degree with very strong painkillers and steroid injections to the neck. My physical suffering also led to my mental and emotional distress. Doctors were convinced that the only solution was invasive surgery to remove the damaged disc which would relieve the pressure on my nervous system.

​

As an alternative to surgery, I discovered complementary therapy. I tried a combination of acupuncture, IDD therapy, physio, deep tissue and trigger point therapy, and yoga. Combine this with muscle strengthening exercise, it completely alleviated my pain and improved my mental health along the way. This eventually helped me to lead a normal pain-free life. Complementary therapy does not cure any illness or medical condition but it is amazing for pain management. Today, I keep my pain at bay through regular deep tissue massage, Pilates and exercise.

I gained a globally recognised Level 3 ITEC qualification in Holistic Massage. Studying the anatomy and physiology of the body and practicing holistic techniques gave me the confidence to treat people professionally. I currently work with clients whom are busy working professionals and/or parents with acute or chronic body pain and muscle tension or injury and help them lead a healthier life.

 I love empowering my clients to understand their bodies and discover the gentle power of holistic therapy. At the same time, I like to learn about my client's lifestyle to help understand the nature of their pain. I am always looking to integrate new treatments and therapies into my practice and believe that continued learning is important for any good Massage Therapist.
