What do you love most about your job?
I like to blend a variety of approaches to suit the need of the individual client; I use deep-tissue massage, hands-free massage, heated bamboo sticks, hot stones massage, myofacsial stretches and thai table massage. I can also offer these services separately.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I have been interested in body work for over thirty years and always given massages as a hobby. In 2018 I re-trained as a Massage Therapist at the School of Holistic Therapy in Edinburgh where I obtained a Practitioner Diploma in Holistic Massage. I have also maintained a daily yoga practice over many years.
Why should our clients choose you?
I make a client consultation before each session, I tailor the massage to your specific needs and you always get a full 1-hour on the table. I can also make recommendations for stretches after the session with one of my Exercise Plans
