Advanced Massage Therapist based in Chepstow, S Wales. (Maitri School of Craniosacral Therapy 2007). Male and female clients. Can do home visits.
I offer treatment for a wide variety of conditions and free consultations. Feel free to enquire further info I was inspired to complete my Advanced Diploma in Massage Therapy when my mum was diagnosed with cancer many years ago and I really wanted to help alleviate her lymph oedema. I was also working with disabled children at the time and soon realised that massage could hugely benefit their mobility and associated symptoms. Since qualifying in 2007 at the Maitri School of Cranial Sacral Therapy in Stroud, I have treated a number of people, young, and old, male and female with various symptoms and conditions. These have included stress relief, ibs, asthma, cancer and much more. I get great pleasure from treating my clients and seeing the benefits and value it had brought to their lives and conditions. My treatments are largely based on Swedish principles, however, I use various techniques to suit a course of treatment that is tailor made to an individual's needs. I continue to learn and study techniques to benefit each client and their condition, to give them a client centred treatment.

Hello lovely people!
I’m currently looking for reliable volunteer models for upcoming massage training sessions and content creation days.
As a volunteer, you’ll receive massages from both myself and students as part of their learning experience. While this isn’t a paid opportunity, it’s a wonderful chance to enjoy a massage.
You’ll need to be comfortable un******ng to your underwear and being respectfully photographed and/or filmed for training and promotional purposes. All genders are welcome and encouraged to apply.
There will also be cake… there’s always cake! 🍰
If you’d like to join the team, please send me a DM for
more details.
I’ve clocked 26 miles so far for – that’s almost a marathon in one week 🏃♀️
No rest for the stubborn (me??) because I’m doing it again this week… and the next. I’m already over halfway and feeling determined to see this through.
If you can spare a few pounds and donate below I’d be so chuffed to hit £150 – and yes, there is a medal involved 🏅
Every donation helps protect our oceans and waterways 💙

A beautiful half-day experience at the Wye Valley Wellness Centre designed to help you slow down, relax and reconnect with your partner (or friend/family member)
Shout out to all the peri-meno Queens out there 👑
Some days are worse than others, hey!?
Well… I’m feeling it today.
That familiar sense of unsettledness in my gut, waking with elevated cortisol — pretty standard for me around each 28-day (or thereabouts) cycle. Probably low in iron again, and an endless to-do list on top of it all.
Life is hard at times… but it can feel even harder when you’re navigating peri too.
Some of us are more sensitive than others to the changes.
Some of us experience bigger waves of hormones throughout the month.
It can be truly debilitating
As wellness practitioners, we are often extremely self-aware.
We usually know what supports us.
We understand the tools, the practices, the science and the nervous system…
But we are human too.
Knowing what helps doesn’t mean it’s always easy to do.
And sometimes, even with all the knowledge in the world, we still struggle.
So, if you can relate, I see you. I hear you.
And I want to share 10 things that help me cope and ride out the wave until the next one 🌊
1. Stay hydrated
I really mean it — at least 3 pints of water a day (tea and coffee don’t count).
2. Five minutes of meditation daily
With conscious breathwork.
3. Reduce sugar and caffeine intake
Both can make agitation and anxiety worse.
4. Restorative yoga
Lying in supportive, gentle poses. (Happy to share my favourites!)
5. Gentle movement
Running or walking for me — and sometimes dancing like nobody’s watching 💃
6. Abstain from alcohol
Completely, if possible.
7. Hugs 🫂
A hug longer than 30 seconds increases oxytocin
8. Supportive supplements
Magnesium glycinate, ashwagandha, collagen, vitamin B complex, vitamin D, iron, lion’s mane. (Always check what’s right for you.)
10. Release the guilt
Sometimes the goal is simply surviving the wave — and that is enough.
And I aim to do most of the above in or surrounded by nature.
Sending love to every one of you riding this journey 🤍
You’re not broken. You’re not alone. You’re powerful — even on the hard days.

After studying Sociology at Gloucestershire University and gaining an Honours Degree I have worked both in the Disability and Education sector, primarily with children and their families.
In 2007, I completed an Advanced Massage Diploma at the Maitri Foundation of Cranial Sacral Therapy which took a couple of years of the study of anatomy, physiology and pathology in order to have the understanding and skills required in order to treat a wide number of complaints through massage. Until recently, massage was my second 'job' to education and I worked as a mobile therapist, visiting clients in their own homes and 'pop up' clinics in the locality.
Due to family circumstances, and an opportunity to have the use of a permanent treatment room in St Mary's Arcade, Chepstow, I made the decision in September 2016 to devote my time solely to my therapies. I have since continued my educational development by becoming certified in a number of further therapies that complement my existing qualification. Becoming a medically certified Rock Doc in January 2017 has allowed me to be involved in a number of prestigious sporting events as a medical practitioner across the UK.
I offer a highly qualified multi disciplinary approach to my treatments which provide fully prescriptive plans to suit each client's specific needs. Each consultation will include a posture, mobility and medical history assessment followed by a mutually agreed treatment plan which may focus of a number of disciplines including Remedial, Swedish, Sports, Shiatsu, Acupressure and Thai Yoga Massage, Manual Therapy and Soft Tissue work as well as techniques such as Myofascial Cupping and Rock Doc medical practice. All treatments can be offered as part of your prescriptive treatment plan or as a stand alone treatments.
I take great pride in my work and am able to see clients of all ages, men and women including babies and pregnant ladies. I have an advanced DBS disclosure and am fully insured.
I endeavour to ensure that my therapies are accessible to those that need it most, and therefore like to maintain close links with the community and ensure that my prices are competitive. I offer discounts to public sector workers including teachers, NHS staff, Emergency Services and the Military.
I am passionate about what I do, my clients and education and will continue to learn new methods of practice and research updates in the field to assist my client's rehabilitation, pain management, to move better and inevitably, most importantly, feel better.
