A huge thank you to all my wonderful clients for supporting this small massage business this year - huge appreciation to you all.

Over dec/jan I’ll be working sporadically (depending on weather for sailing ⛵️) keep an eye on my booking system, as I’ll open up dates as the summer rolls on.

🎄Last ~ minute Xmas vouchers are still available if you are looking for a thoughtful and easy experience gift.

Wishing you a relaxing time however you are spending it. Hopefully the sun comes out soon.

Hi i’m Shannon of Haven Massage.

I have over 15 years of hands-on experience and a Level 6 qualification, I offer a truly bespoke massage experience, tailored to meet your unique needs—whether you’re seeking targeted therapeutic relief or deep, restorative relaxation.

I specialize in a variety of massage techniques tailored to meet each client’s unique needs. My work includes combination Swedish massage, deep tissue, sports massage, myofascial release, lymphatic drainage, and pregnancy massage. Whether you’re looking to relax, recover from an injury, improve athletic performance, or support your body during pregnancy, I customize each session to help you feel your best.

My diverse massage career has taken me from clinical settings and luxury spas to private yachts and my own thriving home-based studio. These experiences have shaped my holistic, client-focused approach, blending technical precision with genuine care. Each treatment is designed not just to ease tension and pain, but to support your overall wellbeing—physically, emotionally, and energetically.

Now settled into my new space, I’m excited to reconnect with former clients and warmly welcome new faces to my practice. My passion lies in helping people feel better in their bodies through the power of skilled, personalised touch. Whether you’re recovering from injury, managing everyday stress, or simply in need of mindful rest, my treatment room is a space of trust, healing, and care.

For those locals who have driven out to the bay recently you have probably seen a sold sign on our house.

Compassion is a bridge between the client and the therapist. It can be argued that without compassion, no healing takes place. Not only is compassion a bridge, but it is also the container for the therapeutic relationship. ~ Susan Salvo, Massage Therapy Principles and Practice.

Touch is the first of the senses to develop as babies and it remains perhaps the most emotionally central throughout our Lives. Of our five senses, touch is often the one we take for granted. Science has only begun to understand the highly complex system of nerves, sensors and receptors that link our skin and brain to our environment and the people around us.

Massage can be a powerful tool to help relieve many musculoskeletal issues but also to help ground and calm, Benefiting the body and the mind.

Hi Haven Massage Community.

I've just had the feeling of wanting to connect in. Its a strange time for everyone and as a therapist it feels really strange to not be offering my practice. I realise over the years it really has become part of who i am. Someone who wants to assist the process of healing, connect with therapeutic touch and offer up a healing sanctuary to those who choose.

I also want to reassure you that all vouchers are on hold and any enquiries and future bookings are on hold and will be honoured when my doors open again.

Wishing you from the bottom of my heart all the best to you and yours.

Warmest,

Shannon at Haven Massage.
