Pregnancy Massage
Pregnancy Massage
Available from the second trimester a pregnancy massage can help reduce muscular tension, stress and anxiety by relaxing the body and mind. A deeply relaxing treatment perfect for mums to be.
Relaxation for chronic conditions
Relaxation for chronic conditions
I am trained and insured to be able to offer relaxation sessions to clients who are about to embark on, are undergoing or have finished their treatment for cancer. Also, clients who suffer from conditions such as fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome and arthritis can often find my tailor-made treatments alleviate some of their symptoms.
Reflexology
Reflexology
A very relaxing therapy that may unblock stagnant energy by stimulating the nervous and blood circulation systems, this promotes self-healing and relaxation of the energy pathways and encourages the body's natural balance to return.
Advanced Clinical Massage
Advanced Clinical Massage
A focused treatment for muscular and skeletal pain. A combination of trigger point therapy, deep tissue massage, energy work, myofascial release and stretching techniques are used to treat soft tissue, muscle and joint pain throughout the whole body.
Myofascial Release
Myofascial Release
Myofascial Release is a hands-on therapy focusing on soft tissue dysfunction, pain and tension. The treatment involves gentle sustained pressure to allow the fascia to elongate and restore itself to a healthy position.
Swedish Massage
Swedish Massage
One of the primary goals of the Swedish massage technique is to relax the entire body. The muscles are rubbed with long gliding strokes in the direction of blood returning to the heart as well as incorporating techniques such as kneading, percussion-like tapping and stretching of muscles
Aromatherapy Massage
Aromatherapy Massage
An aromatherapy massage is truly indulgent. Allow your mind to drift away as your blend of essential oils is worked in to your body to help you heal and relax.
Hot Stone Fusion
Hot Stone Fusion
Allow the hot basalt stones and a customised massage to melt away tension and ease muscles.

Adhering to guidelines
Throughout the pandemic, I will be following guidelines issued by the government, NHS, other relevant authorities and my professional association, the Federation of Holistic Therapists, regarding safe and hygienic practice and the use of any personal protective equipment (PPE).
COVID-19 Risk Assessment
I have carried out a full risk assessment, in line with guidance from the Health and Safety Executive (HSE), in order to:
- identify what work activity or situations might cause transmission of the virus
- think about who could be at risk
- decide how likely it is that someone could be exposed; and to act to remove the activity or situation, or if this isn’t possible, control the risk
- Health screening
Prior to seeing any of my clients, I will be:
- Monitoring my own health and deferring treatments if I have COVID-19 or symptoms of COVID-19.
- Contacting my clients 24 hours in advance and deferring any treatments if:
- they have COVID-19 or symptoms of COVID-19; are clinically extremely vulnerable and shielding;
- anyone in their household has COVID-19 or symptoms of COVID-19;
- they have been in close contact with someone who has symptoms of COVID-19 in the past 14 days;
- they have been contacted by the NHS Test and Trace Service and told to self isolate.
- Asking my clients to call and cancel and defer treatment on the morning of their appointment if they have a temperature or other symptoms of COVID-19.
Enhanced cleaning and hygiene measures
I have introduced enhanced cleaning and hygiene measures between clients, which includes:
- Washing and disinfecting any non-porous surfaces and therapy equipment, such as chairs and couches
- Replacing any porous or single-use items, such as towels and couch roll.
- Strict personal hygiene measures will also be adhered to, including regular handwashing/ sanitising.
Adapting or restricting treatments
It will be necessary for me to adapt or restrict certain treatments, in order to reduce the risk of spreading COVID-19 and/or protect my clients’ health and safety. Any clients likely to be impacted will be advised as soon as possible.
Maintaining social distancing
Please note that while many treatments involve close contact, I will be observing social distancing measures wherever possible. This might include, for example, maintaining an appropriate distance during the consultation process, and when arriving and leaving for an appointment.
Cancellations policy
If a treatment is cancelled or deferred at short notice because my client has COVID-19 or has symptoms of COVID-19, any standard cancellation fees will be waivered. The client will be asked to kindly confirm in writing that their appointment has been cancelled or deferred because they have COVID-19 or symptoms of COVID-19.
