Massage invites us:

 

to just stop and take time out and enjoy some quality time in the present. Here we have an opportunity to remember how good therapeutic touch feels and to enjoy physical contact particularly for those of us living alone

 

to ease excess physical, emotional and mental tension and stress, aches, pains and strains. By increasing fluidity and ease of movement in our bodies we can reduce the likelihood of injury or trauma or speed up recovery afterwards

 

to maintain good health, balance and a sense of connection with our whole self

 

to gain insight into the interconnection of our thoughts, beliefs, emotions, actions and outlook

 

to value ourselves and increase feelings of hope, vision, purpose, confidence and creativity.​​​​

You can enjoy your massage treatment either clothed (seated or lying) or with oil and skin on skin contact. 

I work intuitively but incorporate the *NO HANDS® Massage approach which offers deep, systemic release through an ergonomic, zero-strain approach to touch.

This is achieved without the use of force, but mindfully with powerful yet sensitive pressure through the use of arms and body weight.

*NO HANDS® has been renamed the4elementscompany.com

 

As a sessional therapist for Westerhaven Cancer support I offer Oncology massage for those with a cancer diagnosis and their carers.

 

Over almost three decades I continue to help support clients with diverse issues: tension, stress and anxiety, mental distress, long term conditions,  isolation, trauma and abuse.

 

From my own background in track and field and, at various times, a practitioner in dance, Capoeira, yoga Chi Gung and Pilates I am aware of the holistic health benefits of movement. I encourage clients to include regular and mindful breathwork, stretching and movement in their lives and to be responsible for their own health as much as possible. 

 

Feedback convinces me of the power of massage, especially by using the NO HANDS® massage approach, in bringing positive change and empowerment to those who seek it.

 

mostly work indoors in a private space but I especially enjoy offering chair massage outdoors at health, sporting, festival and community events so I can be visible. 

 

I believe touch is vital to good health and a healthier world and I would like it to be as accessible as possible to anyone who is curious about its benefits.
