It can be a daunting task trying to find the right massage therapist!
I aim to make clients feel comfortable by being down to earth and honest, and I endeavour to address any concerns regarding treatment.
My emphasis is to promote preventative health care and increase awareness of one’s body by helping to ease pain and discomfort, offering practical advice and improving mobility where necessary.
A bit about me...
I have been a professional massage therapist since 2004.
I originally trained, worked and built my business in London before relocating to Cornwall in 2009.
Currently, I work at The Blue Lotus Therapy Centre in Scorrier, Redruth and The Attic Cellar Treatment Rooms in St Ives.
I also massage at various local businesses and events and offer occasional mobile visits in Redruth and the surrounding areas.
I combine techniques to provide the most beneficial solution for clients and employ many levels of pressure during treatment.
Whilst many of my clients come to me because I do not do 'airy-fairy' massage, I do not follow the 'no pain, no gain' mantra either.
I am able to provide strong pressure if necessary/desired, but I never inflict (excruciating) pain or discomfort.
Current research shows that this is an out-dated way of working and I know from nearly 20 years of experience that it is counter-productive.
Pain is the brain's response to threat/danger and is not a 'means to an end'
when it comes to treatment.
Whether clients prefer deeper or lighter pressure, it is essential to work within tolerance levels for treatment to be effective.
Massage therapy MUST be therapeutic to relax the nervous system.
This creates a 'safe environment' for the brain, allowing the soft tissues to release tension, easing pain and discomfort!
I encourage honest feedback from clients during treatment and check my pressure to ensure clients are comfortable.
I have undertaken specific training in pregnancy massage and hold an APNT Diploma in Pregnancy Massage. Over the years I have confidently treated many pregnant women throughout the trimesters.
I often continue regular treatment, providing much-needed relief as post-natal bodies adapt to the physical changes caused by breast-feeding, lack of sleep and carrying ever-growing babies.
Please note that I am a professional massage therapist and do not offer ‘sensual’ or ‘naturist’ massages!
Inappropriate behaviour will be taken seriously and reported.
