✨ Zero Balancing (ZB) Level I & II

Earlier this August, I completed my first Zero Balancing workshop — an incredible 5-day immersion with the legendary David Lauterstein and the brilliant Juliet Cox, assisted by Peter Woodgate ZB. It’s opened up a whole new layer in my practice — one that feels quieter, deeper, and profoundly healing.

I’m now offering sessions using the Core ZB Protocol Sequence I’ve trained in — available as a standalone treatment, or woven into a longer massage session. Becoming a Certified Zero Balancer may be part of my longer journey (or not — I’m letting the work guide me), but what I’ve learned is already powerful, complete, and ready to be shared. I’m letting it settle into my hands and heart, allowing it to deepen with each session — honouring the process with presence and care.

Zero Balancing is gentle, non-invasive, and deeply effective. It’s usually done through clothes, or through a drape if following a massage — working with energy through bone to release tension and reconnect you to your core self. It’s bodywork that speaks to your very bones.

If you’re curious about this subtle, powerful work — I’d love to share it with you.

📸 Grateful to have shared this journey with such a beautiful group of humans.

Everybody Loves the Sunshine ☀️

Cormorant stretching out and soaking up the sunshine — a beautiful moment of pause in my week that felt worth sharing.

Got me thinking… what do you like to do after a massage? Do you keep creating space for yourself? Obviously when at all possible...

Personally, I’m all about soaking up the sunshine like that cormorant. In winter, it’s a book, a blanket, and a hot drink. Sometimes a walk helps me process and integrate. What’s your go-to?

After a full-on week at Glastonbury, it was such a gift to be on the receiving end. I had a beautiful Zero Balancing session here in Bristol—just what my body needed.

I followed it up with a cup of coffee and some quiet time reading Touching the Energy of Bone by John Hamwee, in preparation for deepening even further with David Lauterstein and Juliet Cox at Bristol College of Massage & Bodywork this August.

Honoured to be learning from such skilled and generous teachers, and to keep refining this beautiful practice of touch, presence, and connection.

Feeling restored, inspired, and grateful 💛

Hi everyone, Just a quick note to let you know that my treatment prices will be updated in the booking system on 8th September, and the new rates will apply to all appointments purchased from that date onward.

Prices were originally due for review earlier this year, but I’ve held off as long as I could. This change reflects rising costs and my continued commitment to offering high-quality, supportive care. With 17 years of experience behind me, I’m always working to bring you the best of my evolving skills.

✨ I’ll also be introducing discounted treatment packages—more details coming in my newsletter on 8th September.

Thank you so much for your continued support 💛 Sandra

🌟 Firsts are always special! 🌟 I had such a wonderful time at my first barre class led by my amazing colleague — it was energizing, and just what I needed. 💪✨

I finally got to check out studio and The Park Centre 💖

And as if the day couldn't get more special, there was an eclipse today—a magical reminder of new beginnings and alignment. 🌘✨

Feeling refreshed and motivated to keep exploring new experiences that align with health and creativity. Here's to growth and community! 🌈
