Try adding cucumber to your water. It tastes lovely and is really good for hydration.

The benefits - it’s great for nutrition and skin health , all the good stuff like anti oxidants, silica for collagen production, potassium, and magnesium too, so maybe it’s worth trying if you experience jumpy legs in the evening.

You can add lemon, mint, or ginger. It’s lovely and refreshing in the summer, but I’m drinking it now to boost my hydration.

I’ve noticed when people move freely, their thoughts soften and flow more naturally.

Movement is a felt, not a thinking state.
Paying attention to how our body moves and what we are feeling, gives permission to slow down and truly listen.

Somatic massage gives you the skills to hold on to your treatment after you’ve stepped off the table and walked out of my clinic.

On World Sleep Day - 3 ways to support sleep.
A good sleep routine is just as important as nutrition and exercise.

3 Ways to improve your routine:
Create a buffer zone - 90 minutes before bedtime - stop work and screen use for work and swap for a book or a podcast, something chilled out or not overstimulating.

Create a relaxing environment for sleep. Make sure your bedroom is ideally between 18 to 21 degrees.
Use low ambient light and blackout blinds for early morning light.

Keep your bedroom free of clutter and low on tech.
To support your circadian rhythm make sure you wake up at the same time each day. Maintain a regular sleep schedule.

If you’re going to invest in massage therapy - make it count.

When my client describes ‘knots’ or tension, I look at the bigger picture and I work wisely with their body.

I find the right depth for you to -
Allow the nervous system to make the decision to enter the rest and repair state, helping you tissues to release tension.
The key is not to fix muscles, it takes a systemic/wholebody approach.

This includes muscular, nervous, hormones, circulation and lymphatic systems.

So if you’re investing in massage, make sure it’s working on multiple systems throughout your body.

As a somatic therapist and psychotherapist, I notice:

Your responses:
Your body language in a conversation.
How you hold yourself to amour and protect.
Your mood, energy and pain levels.
When you feel heard and when you need me to back off.
Subtle clues that tell me what’s happening with your nervous system.

And…during a massage:
How you respond to the touch.
When you let go of tension and discomfort.
How deep or shallow you breathe
How much touch you let in, or not.
If you are comfortable with silence
How you process touch and describe it

This means sessions sometimes take a little longer than planned. I don’t want to rush you. I also use the time between sessions to complete my notes, prep the room for my next client, and prep myself to feel replenished.

Grounding is a method I use, combined with my skills and techniques as a body worker designed to support my clients to anchor in the present moment.

Grounding offers a bridge or a temporary mental or emotional space between the ‘here and now’ and past or future anxieties.

Sessions begin with this technique to create a safe space for emotions, thoughts, and feelings to grow and learn, without triggering or overwhelming.

Comment ‘Relaxation’ to be added to my wait list for my next online program - Learning the Art of Relaxation in April. It’s 4 sessions, every Wednesday at 7:30 pm for 30 minutes To sign up or for more information, click on the link in bio or drop me a comment.

Our Story

I absolutely love what I do for my living. My training as a holistic therapist started nearly twenty years ago. For me, being a therapist is as much about allowing people to feel as comfortable and as at ease as possible as soon as they walk in to my clinic. Massage or reflexology might be why they book to see me, but they are only going to get a great treatment if they feel happy enough to have a conversation with me, take a breath, slow down and find their space before they get on the table for their treatment. I opened The Therapy Room six years ago. Massage is my real passion and I take my ongoing training and professional development very seriously. I have regular one to one clinical support sessions and get plenty of massage myself. I don’t specialise in one type of client or condition. I feel it is important as a therapist to remember massage is not about knots and specific muscle groups, but about people, everyone of them different. They may come for their first session with a stiff and sore shoulder, but my job is to let them unravel and let go of what they need to in their own way. I have lots of clients with chronic health conditions and I love being part of their support network on their journey to manage their condition.
