What I do:
I help people that have discomfort in their body find ease and relief.
Physical discomfort is different for everyone, we are all individuals and all have different life stories. It shows itself through the experience of pain, anxiety, sleeplessness, tension, stress and illness.
I use massage, light touch and body awareness.
These techniques help the bodymind create new patterns. This can support recovery and restoration from physical and psychological impact of life events. Developing and strengthening the connection between the body and the psyche helps us take better care of ourselves.
My knowledge and understanding comes from my own journey of experience, learning and practice. Having worked with psychological approaches for many years I came to understand that something important was missing. My own experience with stress and anxiety taught me that I needed to pay attention to what my body was telling me. I could not carry on being 'fine' when I wasn't.
Listening to my body led me to change course. I trained in Biodynamic Massage at the Cambridge Body Psychotherapy Centre in 2018. In 2019 I volunteered in an NHS oncology and palliative care centre, gaining experience in working with people with cancer. Since then I have continued to study and learn, expanding my knowledge of the bodymind, biotensegrity and ways of healing.
