Hello some updates to two informations. I changed timings to lymphatic drainage massage. Because I am straggling to do full body lymphatic drainage properly in 60mins.
Other timings is to back massage.
Other than that it stays the same.
If you already booked treatment/s they are stay as original timings, but if you want to change it please let me know.

All the best

Anxiety and stress don’t just live in the mind — they show up in the body.
Tight jaws, shallow breathing, headaches, neck tension, digestive changes, restless sleep… these are all physical ways the nervous system asks for help.

When the body stays in “alert mode” for too long, muscles grip, fascia stiffens, and the whole system becomes less adaptable.
This is where massage therapy becomes more than relaxation — it becomes regulation.

Through slow, intentional touch, the body receives a clear message: you are safe.
Muscles soften, breath deepens, circulation improves, and the nervous system shifts out of survival mode.

Are you ready to unwind?

A gentle hello to those who’ve recently found their way into this space. I thought I’d take a moment to reintroduce myself.

This space is where I share the holistic therapies I practice and explore the questions that show up in clinic - from skin and tmj to movement, lymphatics, and whole body health.
My intention is always to help you feel more whole in your own body.

If you’re new, I’m truly glad our paths have crossed. May what you discover here bring clarity, calm, and inspiration for your journey.

To those who’ve been here since the early days — your trust and curiosity have shaped this space in ways I deeply treasure.

Hypermobility and massage

Joints and ligaments are sliding too far. Surrounding muscles doing extra work to do all the stabilisation.

Hypermobility is connected to nervous system - they are more sensitive to heat, pressure,…
Body awareness in space is not good too.

Most of them they don’t go for massage because reaction day after is terrible.
My approach is asking clients, how they reacted to previous massage.

And follow up/check on them day after.
After few session I get to know them and their body.

If you decide not to come for massage I would say exercises are amazing aproach. Choose exercises where you strength the muscle rather than stretch it.

Are you related to that problem?
If yes what does help you and what make you flare up?

This is what a week can look like as a massage therapist.
It’s not just muscles and techniques.
It’s people walking in carrying grief, stress, pain, recovery… all of it.

Some days you’re helping someone finally get relief from a headache and jaw pain they’ve had for days.

Some days you’re sitting with someone who just got really hard news about their health.

And some days you’re just holding space while someone talks through the same story again… because it matters to them.

It can be a lot. Physically and emotionally.

But there are also these quiet moments that make it worth it.

When someone takes a breath and you can feel their whole system drop a little.

When they get off the table and they move easier.
When they just say “thank you” and you know it meant something.

We don’t just work on bodies.

We work with people in whatever they’re carrying that day.

And we don’t forget that.

Lots of love

Moving into a supine (face-up) position 🤍

I’ll guide you to turn onto your back.

To make this as smooth and comfortable as possible, gently shift your body slightly toward your feet before turning.

Once you’re face up, I may softly move your head from one side to the other to work on your neck.

You’ll feel much more supported and relaxed when your head is fully (or at least partly) on the couch, rather than resting on the face cradle.

Take your time—comfort is key ✨

Look forward to seeing you soon

Lower back pain? Let’s look at the whole picture 👇

Three pregnancies. Working right up until the end. Three complicated C-sections.

Of course my lower back is going to be a more vulnerable spot. It means I need to support it smarter, not ignore it.

Here’s what actually helps (and might help you too):

✨ 1. Core first — always
Your core isn’t just about abs. It’s your deep support system (including pelvic floor + deep abdominal muscles).
After pregnancy and C-sections, these muscles can weaken or disconnect, which puts extra strain on your lower back.
👉 Think: gentle, consistent strengthening — not crunches, but controlled, functional movements.

☀️ 2. Don’t ignore Vitamin D
Low Vitamin D can contribute to muscle weakness and even chronic pain.
If you’re constantly feeling achy or fatigued, it might be worth checking your levels.

🧍‍♀️ 3. Posture is everything (but not perfection)
It’s not about “standing straight” all day — it’s about awareness.
Avoid: • tilting your pelvis too far forward (arching)
• tucking too much under
Instead 👉 keep your body in a neutral, balanced position and gently engage your core.
💡 Quick tip:
Imagine your ribcage stacked over your pelvis — that’s your sweet spot.

❤️ 4. Give your body context, not criticism
Pain isn’t a failure — it’s feedback.
Your body has been through a LOT. Support it, strengthen it, and be patient with it.
With the right approach, your back can feel strong again.

And of course don't forget about your massage;)

See you soon

It is not always easy. Specially if I need to finish some projects. Training. Marketing. List is long but hoping it will have good impact.

Why Botox Isn’t Always the Best Option for TMJ Dysfunction

1️⃣ It’s a paralytic
Botox works by paralyzing the muscle it’s injected into — usually the masseter.
But your jaw isn’t powered by just one muscle. You still have:

* temporalis
* medial pterygoid
* lateral pterygoid

plus multiple facial muscles and your tongue
Any of these can continue contributing to tension, pain, or dysfunctional movement even if the masseter is weakened.

2️⃣ It’s temporary
Botox typically lasts around 3 months.
That means it doesn’t address why the tension is happening — it simply reduces the muscle’s ability to contract for a short period.
If the underlying habits, patterns, or structural issues aren’t addressed, symptoms often return once the Botox wears off.

3️⃣ There are other options that target the root cause
Depending on your symptoms, history, and goals, other therapies may offer more lasting change:

Dry needling — releases trigger points and improves muscle function

Physical therapy — restores mobility, strength, and joint mechanics

Myofunctional therapy — retrains tongue posture, breathing, and swallowing patterns

You are not alone. Maria x

Here’s how to make the benefits stick 👇

💧 Hydrate
Water keeps muscles happy.

🛀 Take it slow after your session
Avoid intense workouts right after. Let your body absorb the treatment instead of shocking it.

🧘‍♀️ Stretch daily (even 5 mins!)
Gentle stretching keeps muscles loose and prevents tension from creeping back in.

😴 Prioritize sleep
Your body repairs and resets while you rest. A good night’s sleep = longer-lasting results.

🔥 Use heat therapy at home
Warm baths, showers, or heating pads can extend that relaxed, loose feeling.

📅 Stay consistent
One massage feels amazing. Regular sessions change your body. Book ahead and stay on track.

✨ Pro tip: Listen to your body — tension builds over time, and consistency is the secret to long-term relief.

A great massage - it’s therapy for your body and mind.
From easing muscle tension to melting away stress, it’s your time to disconnect from the noise and reconnect with yourself.

Breathe deeper. Move better. Feel lighter.

You deserve that moment of calm. 🤍
