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.

After running a full-time massage clinic for 9 years (and being qualified for twice as long), I’ve seen and heard so much—very little surprises me anymore.
Many of the worries or insecurities you might have about what I’m thinking as your massage therapist are incredibly common… but they’re almost never true.
I’m not here to judge you.
I’m here to support you, help you feel at ease, and create a space where you can truly relax.

Today we celebrate International Women’s Day — a day to honour the strength, compassion and resilience of women everywhere.
At Wye Valley Wellness, we are privileged every day to hold space for women as they rest, restore and reconnect with themselves. Whether it’s through massage, learning new skills, or simply taking time to breathe beside the beautiful River Wye, we see first-hand how powerful it is when women prioritise their wellbeing.
Wellness isn’t a luxury — it’s something every woman deserves.
Today is a reminder to celebrate the women who support us, inspire us and walk alongside us… and also to remember to care for ourselves with the same kindness we offer others.
Here’s to strong women.
May we know them.
May we support them.
May we be them.
Happy International Women’s Day 💜

I had the privilege of working with the most wonderful individuals last weekend during our Massage for Couples Course.
In just five hours they learned far more than the basics of massage. Together we explored a variety of techniques including hands-free deep tissue work, myofascial release, and how to locate and treat trigger points to really hit the spot.
It was a fully interactive, hands-on and informative day, but also a deeply nurturing one. The course gives couples the opportunity to slow down, learn new skills together, and become more present with one another through the power of touch.
Here’s some of what the students had to say… ✨

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 🏅

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.
