I get asked quite a lot what the word “holistic” in my brand actually means.
Usually followed by something like:

“Right… but you don’t really do the holistic stuff I was expecting?” 😅
And fair enough! A lot of people hear “holistic” and picture incense, chanting, floaty gowns and deep spiritual awakening — meanwhile I’m over here asking about your sleep, stress levels, workload and whether you’ve overdone it at the gym again 🙃

So here’s what holistic means to me:

It simply means I look at the whole person, not just the sore bit you’ve come in with.

Because pain isn’t just about muscles — it’s also shaped by things like:

• how busy or stressed life is
• how much rest you actually get
• past injuries
• worries about movement
• beliefs about pain
• whether your body ever gets a proper breather

Massage and hands-on work absolutely help — they can ease tension, calm the nervous system and help you feel more comfortable. I genuinely love that part of what I do.

But they’re just one piece of the puzzle 🧩

So my style of “holistic” often looks like:

✨ a proper chat about what’s really going on
✨ reassurance about what’s safe
✨ pacing things so your body has a chance to recover
✨ giving you tools — not just treatment
✨ and yes… still doing massage when it’s helpful 💆‍♂️💆‍♀️

And just to be clear — there is absolutely nothing wrong with booking a massage simply because it feels nice. That benefit really matters.
But when I say holistic, I mean I’m interested in you as a whole human — your life, your stress, your goals, your habits, your story — and I use hands-on treatment as one helpful part of supporting that.

So if you’ve ever wondered what “holistic” means around here…
It’s not mystical. It’s not magical.

It’s simply whole-person care, honesty, and a chat that makes sense — with a bit of kindness along the way ❤️

🌟 Living With Knee Osteoarthritis? How Deep Oscillation Can Help 🌟

Many of my clients live with knee osteoarthritis, and a common theme is:
“It just feels stiff, heavy and irritated — especially after sitting or walking.”
Over time, the joint can become inflamed, the surrounding muscles tense to protect it, and movement starts to feel harder than it should.

This is where Deep Oscillation Therapy (DOT) has been really helpful, it works very gently inside the soft tissues surrounding the knee — helping to:

✔ calm irritation
✔ reduce that “heavy, swollen” feeling
✔ relax protective muscle tension
✔ support natural drainage
✔ make movement feel easier and more comfortable

Most people describe it as deeply soothing rather than forceful — which is ideal when a joint is already sensitive.

🔬How it works

Deep Oscillation uses a mild electrostatic field to create tiny, rhythmic movements inside the soft tissues — not just at the surface, but deeper into fascia and muscle.

Research suggests these internal oscillations may help to:

🩸 Improve local blood flow, bringing oxygen and nutrients to irritated tissues

💧 Support lymphatic drainage, which may reduce that “full” or congested feeling

🧠 Calm the nervous system’s pain response, helping muscles stop guarding so much

🧽 Improve tissue glide & softness, which can help stiffness feel less limiting

And importantly:
✔ there’s no joint compression or deep pressure
✔ it’s very well tolerated — even in sensitive knees
✔ it works beautifully alongside exercise & rehab

Just to be clear, DOT doesn’t “fix” arthritis —OA is a long-term joint condition.

But when we improve the environment around the joint and reduce pain sensitivity, people often find they can move with more ease, confidence and comfort — which makes day-to-day life feel that bit better 💙

If you’d like to chat about whether this approach might suit your knee, just send me a message — I’m always happy to help.

👀 Injury management and rehabilitation — what does that actually mean?

🤕 If you’ve been told to “just rest”, “do your exercises”, or “give it time” and then left to get on with it — you’re not alone. Injuries are often vague, inconvenient, and rarely arrive with useful instructions.

👐 In my work, injury management and rehabilitation aren’t about pretending to be a physio. They’re about helping your body calm down, move a bit better, and tolerate everyday life again. That might involve advanced clinical massage to ease things along, muscle energy techniques to encourage better movement, or kinesio taping to offer a bit of support while you carry on.

🎯 Where appropriate, that can also include dry needling or medical acupuncture, alongside sensible stretching, strengthening, and conditioning. Nothing heroic. No “pushing through”. Just what’s actually helpful at the time.

✨ Why does this matter? Because recovery shouldn’t feel like a long, confusing process where you’re constantly wondering if you’re making things worse. Fewer flare-ups, less overthinking, and more quiet confidence in your body.

💬 If your body’s being mildly uncooperative and you’re not entirely sure what it needs, feel free to message me and we’ll talk it through.

🧠🩺 What Makes Clinical Remedial Massage Different?

Massage can be relaxing — but when you’re dealing with pain, injury, or movement issues, relaxation alone often isn’t enough.

My work sits in the space between traditional massage and rehabilitation support, using a clinical, remedial approach tailored to how your body actually functions.

🔍 Each session may include:

• Movement-informed assessment
• Targeted therapeutic and sports massage
• Advanced clinical techniques (Jing Method)
• Dry needling & medical acupuncture (where appropriate)
• Muscle Energy Techniques and corrective strategies
• Kinesio taping for support between sessions
• Stretching, strengthening, and conditioning guidance

Rather than following a routine, sessions are problem-focused and goal-driven, designed to support recovery, improve function, and reduce the likelihood of recurring issues.

✨ Why this approach matters

• Pain and dysfunction often have multiple contributing factors
• Lasting change requires skilled assessment, not guesswork
• Clinical reasoning + hands-on treatment = better outcomes

This style of work is best suited to clients with injuries, persistent tension, or movement limitations who want a structured, rehabilitative approach — not just a one-off treatment.

📍 Pseudo-Sciatica: Why It Hurts & How I Can Help

If you’ve got pain in your glutes, hamstring or down the back of your leg — but it isn’t coming from a spinal disc — you might have pseudo-sciatica (often linked to the piriformis or deep glute muscles).

This isn’t “true” sciatica.
It’s usually caused by irritation or compression of the sciatic nerve inside the glute muscles, not the spine.

🔍 What I look for:

Tight or irritated deep glute muscles (piriformis, glute med/min)

Weak glutes causing overload

Hip and lumbar movement restrictions

Nerve irritation or sensitivity

👐 How treatment helps:

✔️ Deep glute & piriformis release
✔️ Hip & lower-back mobility work
✔️ Sciatic nerve glide techniques
✔️ Correcting movement patterns
✔️ Strength exercises to prevent it returning

💬 If your leg or glute pain keeps coming back, I can assess what’s driving it and help you get it under control long-term.

Before You Go for Surgery, Read This

If you're preparing for any type of surgery — including cosmetic procedures such as abdominoplasty — there’s a gentle therapy that can support your body’s natural healing process:

✨ Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) ✨

MLD is a specialised, clinically recognised technique designed to assist the lymphatic system in managing swelling and tissue fluid — something your body relies on heavily during recovery.

---

💚 How MLD Can Support Pre- and Post-Surgical Healing

Surgery temporarily disrupts normal lymphatic flow. MLD can help by:

✔️ Supporting the reduction of swelling and fluid buildup (edema)
✔️ Improving comfort by easing pressure in the tissues
✔️ Encouraging natural lymphatic clearance, which may help reduce bruising
✔️ Helping maintain soft, mobile tissues as you heal
✔️ Gently supporting the body’s recovery process without applying pressure to healing sites

Some people also find that starting MLD before surgery helps prepare the tissues and promotes a smoother early recovery.

---

🛡️ Why It’s Important to Choose a Registered MLD Therapist

MLD is not a general massage technique — it requires specific training, knowledge of postoperative healing, and understanding of when and how to safely treat the body.

Choosing a therapist registered with an organisation such as MLDUK – The Professional Association of Manual Lymphatic Drainage ensures they have:

✔️ Accredited training in evidence-based MLD methods
✔️ Knowledge of postoperative precautions
✔️ An understanding of lymphatic anatomy and pathology
✔️ Professional standards, hygiene protocols, and insurance
✔️ The ability to adapt treatment to your specific surgery

Your recovery is important — working with a properly trained professional helps keep it safe and effective.

🌿 Surgery is a big event for your body. Supporting your lymphatic system can make the healing journey more comfortable.

✨ Contralateral Strength Training: The Missing Link Between Rehab & Long-Term Injury Prevention

If you’ve ever felt that one side of your body works harder than the other — or you keep getting the same aches and pains — you’re not alone.
These imbalances are one of the biggest reasons injuries linger or keep coming back.

This is where contralateral strength training comes in.
It simply means training one side of the body while the opposite side stabilises — the same cross-body patterns you use when walking, climbing stairs, reaching, or lifting.

🧠 Why This Matters for Injury Management

When you’re injured, your body naturally starts to compensate.
One side tightens up.
The other switches off.
Before you know it, your whole movement pattern changes.

This is why proper rehab is essential — not just for healing, but for preventing future problems.

Rehab helps you:
✔ Rebuild strength in key stabilising muscles
✔ Improve your movement patterns
✔ Reduce ongoing tension and flare-ups
✔ Support joints like hips, knees, and shoulders
✔ Stay active without fear of re-injury

💪 How Contralateral Training Supports Your Recovery

These cross-body exercises are brilliant for:
✔ Improving balance and coordination
✔ Strengthening the core and pelvis
✔ Evening out left–right imbalances
✔ Reducing strain on joints
✔ Making everyday movement feel easier and more stable

It’s not about lifting heavy — it’s about teaching the body to work together again, exactly the way it’s designed to.

⭐ The Takeaway

Massage and rest can help you feel better…
But rehab and contralateral strength training help you stay better.

Whether you’re recovering from an injury, dealing with recurring aches, or simply want a more resilient body, this approach can make a massive difference.
