Why me?
In 2018 I went through a traumatic bereavement, I've lived through the ensuing bombardment of mental and physical health conditions.

This manifests in pain (including TMJ, vertigo, back spasms, headaches) reduced mobility, shallow breathing, insomnia; all of which perpetuate the mental health concerns you may be experiencing which override the physical feelings.
Massage therapy has helped me understand why we react the way we do and how we can dramatically improve our mental state through our physical health. It works and I love it!
I'm a qualified level 4 sports and deep tissue massage therapist, FREC3 MIRA qualified, reiki level 2, kinesiology taping qualified, lymphatic drainage qualification and fully insured through Balens.
