18 years of massage hands = stronger than my morning coffee.
But somehow still not strong enough to fix people who say
“I just need one session.”
😂👌

You don’t need to be able to touch your toes or fold yourself in half to benefit from flexibility work.
Stretching keeps your muscles nourished, your joints mobile, and your nervous system calm — all essential for pain reduction and recovery.

When you move regularly and stretch gently, you improve circulation, decrease inflammation, and help the body maintain balance between strength and mobility.

✨ Movement isn’t about perfection — it’s about giving your body space to heal.

MIGRAINES — MORE THAN JUST A HEADACHE ✨

If you’re someone who gets migraines, you’ll know they’re not your average headache. They can bring on throbbing pain, nausea, light sensitivity, and tension through the head and neck.

💆‍♀️ Massage can help — not during a migraine, but between attacks.
Here’s how:
🌿 Releases tight neck, shoulder & jaw muscles that can trigger pain
🌿 Calms the nervous system to reduce stress and muscle guarding
🌿 Improves circulation and drainage around the head and neck
🌿 Promotes better sleep and recovery

Gentle work through the suboccipitals, traps, and scalp can do wonders for easing the build-up that leads to migraine flare-ups.

✨ Add-ons that can help:
– Magnesium balm or oil for tension
– Cooling peppermint or lavender
– Light pressure and mindful breathing

If migraines are part of your life, regular remedial or relaxation massage can make a real difference in prevention and recovery.
• Avoid stimulating oils/scents during an attack
• If migraines are frequent (>15/month) or worsening, seek medical review — may need neurologist or GP assessment for medication or imaging.

💚 Book a session and let’s help your body find its calm again.

Opening the Front of the Body 🤍

So much of what we do each day—driving, typing, looking at our phones—pulls us forward. The chest closes, shoulders round, and the front of the body slowly tightens.

When we take time to open through the front—across the chest, hips, and shoulders—we invite space back in. It helps improve posture, release tension, and allows for deeper breathing.

But beyond the physical, opening the front of the body can feel like an act of vulnerability—of softening and allowing energy and emotion to flow freely again.

A little reminder to counterbalance all that forward motion with gentle expansion. 🌿

💆‍♀️ Massage Meets Traditional Cupping

When I integrate myofascial cupping into a remedial treatment, it’s never just “cups on and walk away.”
Each placement has purpose — working with your fascia, circulation, and mobility in real time.

Cupping helps:
✨ Release fascial restrictions
✨ Improve blood flow and lymphatic drainage
✨ Ease muscle tension and recovery
✨ Support healing for tight or overused areas

I prefer to blend the two — using traditional glass cups alongside hands-on massage — to create a dynamic treatment that keeps the body responding, not just resting.
You’ll feel the difference when the cups and the hands work together.

A Friendly Reminder About Bookings ✨

Every now and then I find myself doing the old twiddle of the fingers when someone forgets they made a booking.

Just so you know—when a client doesn’t show, I don’t earn a cent. I simply sit and wait for the next person to arrive. At the moment, I don’t charge a fee to hold your appointment time, but times are increasingly tough for small businesses like mine.

To help us both, I kindly ask that when you make a booking (anywhere, not just with me!) you write it straight into your diary or phone calendar. You’ll always get a reminder from my booking system, but if for some reason that message doesn’t reach you, at least you’ll already have the appointment written down.

Thank you for your understanding—it makes a huge difference! 💛

✨ Remedial Massage – Everyday Benefits ✨

Remedial massage isn’t just for athletes or injury recovery – it’s for anyone who wants to move, feel, and live better.
Regular treatments can:

🌿 Improve circulation and flexibility
🌿 Support posture and joint health
🌿 Reduce headaches and stress levels
🌿 Boost recovery after exercise or long days on your feet

It’s about checking in with your body, restoring balance, and giving yourself the space to heal and recharge. 💆‍♀️💆‍♂️

Recovering from an ACL injury? 🦵✨
Here are a few science-backed tools that can support your rehab alongside physio:

🔥 Infrared pads & red light therapy – boost circulation, reduce stiffness, and may help healing at a cellular level.
🌡️ Infrared sauna – relax muscles, improve blood flow & ease soreness.
⚡ TENS – great for pain relief so you can move more comfortably.
💪 EMS – proven to help the quads stay strong, which is essential for ACL recovery and knee stability.

These therapies won’t replace your exercises (those are number one 🏋️‍♀️), but they can make the journey smoother and keep your body primed for progress.

👉 Consistency + the right mix of tools = stronger recovery.

Recovering Strong with EMS

After an ACL injury, getting the quadriceps firing again is one of the biggest challenges. That’s where an EMS (Electrical Muscle Stimulation) machine can help.

✨ Benefits of EMS for ACL rehab:
• Boosts muscle strength + mass when normal exercise is tough
• Encourages blood flow, reducing stiffness and soreness
• Helps retrain the quads to activate properly again
• Supports rehab progress for injuries like ACL tears and even conditions like knee osteoarthritis

It’s not a replacement for movement, but it’s a powerful tool to supplement your recovery and keep muscles working while you rebuild strength.

👉 Always check with your physio or health professional for the right settings and use.

Healing takes time — but every pulse gets you closer to strong, stable knees again. 🦵⚡
