I offer a combination of Deep Tissue | Relaxing | Holistic | Swedish techniques in my therapies, and no treatment will be or feel the same.

I have been fascinated with bodywork for many years, graduating as a massage therapist in 2020, at the London School of Massage, continuing in developing my skills, at the School of Natural Therapies and North London School of Sport Massage. 

I tailor my treatments to the individual's client’s needs, whether they are coming to ease physical tension, connect body and mind, or deeply relax. My focus is on creating a calm and welcoming space for people to drop into “me-time”.

I believe in a long-term relationship when it comes to any therapy and, although a one-off session can help and go a long way, I believe finding a safe and familiar space can positively assist the nervous system in establishing a healthy and strong body-mind connection.
