“The only time my mind is actually quiet is when I’m having my massage with you, it’s better than sleep”

Said my lovely regular last week. She has adhd so values this respite during her time on my massage table so very greatly.

Many of the people coming to me for treatment are neurodivergent, and if you are too, I want you to know that you are most welcome.

When you book in with me online, you’ll get the opportunity to tell me if there is anything I can do to make your experience with me a great one. I’m completely happy to be mindful about scent and lighting, to be super clear with my communication during the consultation part of the treatment if this is helpful, to prompt with my words and touch what I am about to do next during treatment, and to rest warm stones on your lower back and tummy if weight helps you settle and relax, just like a weighted blanket.

My background, working with SEND children and their families, means conditions such as autism and adhd are not new to me, although I fully acknowledge everyone is different of course, hence offering up the opportunity for you to tell me exactly what works for YOU.

It’s also why I offer concessionary rates of up to £25 off advanced clinical massage treatment for parent carers of SEND children who are Compass Card holders and/or receive DLA or PIP.

You can find out more about all of this on my website https://www.mandalamassagebrighton.com/

I post for Pride each year and each year I ask myself whether I should… after all, I’m a cis female in a heterosexual marriage and this is my business page. I’m aware of how it may seem… or am I overthinking it?

Once again I’ve decided to post. Whilst I will never understand what it may feel like to wonder whether it’s safe for me to hold the hand of the person I love in public, I want to use each and every opportunity to make it explicitly and abundantly clear that each and every body is welcome on my massage table. So long as they uphold the same values of love and acceptance that is.

Surely I don’t need to go on about this, we live in Brighton the gay capital of the UK, yet sadly I think I do.

And whilst this is a shout out to everyone attending the Pride event here this weekend, proudly holding hands with and kissing the ones they love, it’s also a shout out to the quieter voices, and to those who aren’t attending, who feel they cannot, for whatever reason this may be.

You are seen and welcome too.

With love 🩷

Let’s talk sciatica…

Which is actually the name of a set of symptoms rather than an actual condition.

Symptoms of sciatica can include numbness, tingling, weakness, and referred pain. You’ll most likely feel this in your glutes, down the back and side of your leg, and sometimes even as far as your foot.

I get asked quite a bit if I treat sciatica, people do tend to think of it as condition rather than a set of symptoms, and whether what I do helps.

The short answer is yes to both of these questions, however, it’s important to understand what might be causing the sciatica in order to have a realistic perspective on how long it can take to see results. It’s important for me to know as the therapist, so I can deliver an appropriate treatment, and it’s important for the client to know, so they aren’t disappointed if progress takes longer than they might like.

Sciatica occurs when the sciatic nerve is compressed, which can happen for a couple of reasons… a herniated/slipped disc pressing on the sciatic nerve and piriformis syndrome which is the name used when the piriformis becomes inflamed thus compressing the sciatic nerve.

Another reason can be trigger points in the gluteal muscles, usually glute minimus.

These conditions all have very similar symptoms but different timeframes for recovery and all require a slightly different approach, including the advice given for self-care between clinical massage sessions.

It’s not always straightforward but it is always interesting, which is why I love what I do ❤️

‘Punctuality is the politeness of kings’

I love this expression, shared with me by one of my lovely regulars yesterday. They were late for their appointment last time, and apologised again for it, despite it being no fault of their own as they were waiting on a cab… booked ahead in good time but running very late!

It was on point though as this week I’ve had a few very early arrivals, which are actually more of a problem for me than people running late. Working from home means there isn’t a waiting area and in the short time between appointments I have to refresh the room and set up for the next person, complete my notes, have a quick drink, respond to texts and emails, attend to little Chica, and sometimes eat my lunch as well. Time is tight! 😅

I enjoy learning where expressions are thought to come from and think this one is really cool!

‘Kings (especially before the [French] revolution) didn’t need to be punctual. They could show up when they wanted. Afterall, people would wait for them. But [King Louis XVIII of France, to whom the quote is often attributed] suggests that one way a king can show respect for other people is to meet them at the appointed time’

The photo is my beautiful niece Tobechi, dressed as the Red Queen for World Book Day some years back and taken by my photographer sister. I don’t have any nephews and I’m assuming the expression would apply to queens too!

And the takeaway from this post… a polite reminder to be on time wherever possible, if you’re early you can take a stroll around the block in the sunshine 😎🙏🏼🩷

I love being as happy to get back to my work as an and as I do taking a break from it.

Yes, even when it’s as hot as it’s been this week. Although, I think the 30 - 35 degree daily temperature in Croatia made that a little easier to manage 😜

It’s been really great to see my regulars and a few new people already this week. So far I’ve treated…

⚡️2 clicky, painful jaws
⚡️1 calf injury (all ready for Love Supreme now 😅)
⚡️Sciatica
⚡️Chronic migraine
⚡️Cervical dystonia
⚡️Fibromyalgia and CFS

I had a very pregnant regular booked in but she cancelled due to going into labour… how very exciting!

You can swipe through to see a few photos from holiday, we really loved Croatia and appreciated how easy it was to find healthy vegan options too 💚

If you’d like to come for a treatment, either for maintenance, pain, or relaxation, then I encourage you to book asap. More than half my slots for this month are already taken 🙏🏼

You can nab yours here https://www.mandalamassagebrighton.com/onlinebooking or via the in my bio.

And if it’s been a while, then I’d especially love to see you!

Resetting in nature 💚

Just what I needed on Wednesday after a super awesome, and very busy, start to the week!

I’ve been thinking a lot recently about the nervous system and what it means to fill your cup and also to not let it overflow and how for me there is a sweet spot, not too empty and not too full. A bit like Goldilocks with the porridge!

I think this is true for most of us actually and I love supporting the people who come to me to for and treatments to become more aware of this.

Revved up nervous systems make pain worse and pain takes us further into fight and flight mode. We need to take a proactive and systemic approach to our wellbeing.

Getting out in nature and away from our screens, even for just a short time, is so very good for us.

Next time you’re feeling overstimulated give it a try… you’ll feel so much better for it, I promise 💚

May was a busy month for me… and I didn’t get around to sharing much on here so here are some of the highlights 🤩

June looks set to be a good month too… I’m supporting quite a bit. At the stand and workshops for the next Saturday, Table Thai 1 day massage course on Monday and the Open Evening on Tuesday. With all of this going on, plus a busy week of and treatments, I’m beyond delighted that Wednesday is a moon day and a lie in for me. There is no on full moon and new moon 🙌🏼

And I almost forgot… I am away 19 - 30 June, so my availability is less this month. If you want to come for treatment then I encourage you to book asap. You can do so here https://www.mandalamassagebrighton.com/
or via the link in my bio.

I’d love to see you! 😎

Do you spend too much time at your desk or in front of a screen?

Then this move is for you…

Deep work across the pectorals makes all the difference when you’ve been sitting with your shoulders hunched and rolling forward all day.

What you can’t see from the photo is that it’s a dynamic move, that I’m taking my clients arm into abduction which allows me to sink deeper into the pectoral fascia, slowly stripping across the tissues, pausing when I feel tightness, inviting the body to let me in further, to soften and let go of pain, stress and tension.

We tend to think of shoulder massage as happening on the upper back, neck and the tops of the shoulders but it’s super important to work the front of the body too.

People tell me they feel so much more open, lighter and freer when I’ve worked across the front of the body in this way.

Have you had a Jing Method advanced clinical massage, do you know how good this feels and how effective it is...

I have a availability on Thursday this week, you can book here https://www.mandalamassagebrighton.com/ or via the links in my bio 😊

Don’t be hard on yourself when you’re having a hard time. None of us are perfect and rarely are we as kind to ourselves as we would be to others.

All too often the people coming to me for clinical massage or specialist TMJ massage treatment are pushing themselves to do more and berating themselves when they can’t. Sure, our bodies are incredibly resourceful, they will keep going and going, until they can’t that is.

This week in clinic, I’ve encountered burnt out teachers, doctors, therapists, parents, and carers. First and foremost, treatment has been all about encouraging the nervous system to settle, to drop into the parasympathetic, rest and digest mode, so their bodies can feel safe enough for me to be able to treat them.

These are some of the comments afterwards…

✨This has been the most relaxed I’ve felt in a long time.
✨My jaw feel so much looser.
✨I can’t believe how much more I can open my mouth.
✨I was able to completely switch off.
✨This is the only time this week my mind has stopped racing.
✨This is a reminder of how I’m supposed to feel.

I have some availability left for April but this is filling up quickly. You can book here https://www.mandalamassagebrighton.com/ or via the link in my bio.

I’d love to help you feel better 😊

It’s international transgender visibility day today…

I’m a cisgender female… so why am i posting about this, it’s got nothing to do with me surely?

Oh yes it has… I aim to be an ally of the trans community in my personal life, first and foremost, and professionally… EACH and EVERY BODY is welcome on my massage table.

It’s super important to make this explicitly clear. I will never understand what it may feel like to have to consider whether I am welcome in the places I wish to go, whether my needs will be understood when I access services, whether I will be disliked without even being known or worse.

So it’s important to speak up, and to challenge the views of those around you if necessary, making it abundantly clear who is welcome to access your business and the services you provide, and of course not just today but all days...

I’m Nicky and I run Mandala Massage from my home in Hanover, Brighton.

My deep tissue, hot stone and holistic massages are extremely effective in treating chronic pain and are also super relaxing.

I can help with a range of conditions including whiplash, sciatica, RSI's, shoulder injuries, stiff neck, pulled muscles and sprains, back pain, plantar fasciitis, headaches and migraines, stress, anxiety and insomnia.

I qualified in Advanced Clinical Massage with the highly regarded Jing Institute here in Brighton. I hold an ITEC Level 3 Diploma in Holistic Massage and Anatomy and I am also trained in Jing Hot Stone Fusion Massage.
