Please provide a minimum of 24 hours notice if you wish to reschedule or cancel your appointment. I’m passionate about fascia. If you don’t know what it is, don’t worry, I can tell you all about it. I’m a therapist specialising in Integrated Myofascial Release, registered with the BCMA British Complementary Medicine Association. In my practise I have witnessed that lighter, sustained and more informed touch allows the body to heal at a much deeper level and as such facilitates physical, emotional and psychological change, providing profound and longer lasting results. I love doing this work, seeing the change in people before and after treatment. I came to Myofascial Release through my own personal healing journey. I had been experiencing more & more restricted movement & pain & then finally I had an injury that caused me pain & muscle weakness in day to day tasks, which prevented me from joining in with some family activities & stopped me from dancing. After some traditional treatment, I still couldn’t get comfortable. At this point, I had my first experience of MFR from a therapist friend who had just started practicing. The treatment was unlike anything I had experienced before and I was told I might continue to feel additional changes the following day anywhere in my body. The change was so unexpected I had to investigate further and get more treatment! Once I began investigating, I knew for certain this was what I wanted to practise. I love that my skills can help people, so let MFR do for you what it did for me and start your own healing journey. The fascia is one continuous structure that exists from head to toe without interruption; an uninterrupted network of the body’s connective tissue. It’s very densely woven, covering and interpenetrating every muscle, bone, nerve, artery and vein, as well as all the internal organs, including the heart, lungs, brain and spinal cord. This means all parts of the body are connected to each other through the fascia. The main components of fascia are elastin, collagen and ground substance, which together form a 3D matrix with elastic and tensile strength that in a healthy condition glides and moves without restriction. Physical and emotional trauma, repetitive movements, poor posture and surgical procedures all scar and harden fascia, not only in the affected area but also along the tension lines imposed on it. This causes the fascial network to lose its cushioning mechanism and internal structures are pulled out of alignment, causing pain, restriction and lack of function. And this is where the MFR therapist comes in, as we are taught to feel and stretch slowly into the fascial network, applying gentle pressure to feel through and facilitate the release of restrictions. By focusing on the fascia within the body, we allow the patient to heal at the deepest level.

Our Story

My aim is to provide clients relief from pain & to empower them to return to a pain free & active life. I offer individually tailored treatments working with Myofascial Release (MFR) &/or Swedish Massage techniques responding to the needs of the patient. What is Myofascial Release? MFR is quickly gaining recognition as a safe and very effective gentle, hands-on technique without use of oil, that can provide welcome relief for many people who have 'tried everything'. It involves applying gentle sustained pressure (for a minimum of 120 seconds or sometimes many minutes) into the Myofascial connective tissue to release restrictions, eliminate pain and restore mobility. Fascia cannot be forced. This essential “time element” has to do with the viscous flow and the piezoelectric phenomenon: a low load (gentle pressure) applied slowly will allow a viscoelastic medium (fascia) to elongate. What is Fascia? Fascia is actually one continuous structure that exists from head to toe without interruption, an uninterrupted network of the Connective tissue of the body. It’s very densely woven, covering and interpenetrating every muscle, bone, nerve, artery and vein, as well as, all of our internal organs including the heart, lungs, brain and spinal cord. In this way you can begin to see that each part of the entire body is connected to every other part by the fascia like a 3D web. Fascia is composed of Elastin, Collagen & Ground Substance which together form a fluid 3D matrix with elastic and tensile strength that in a healthy condition glides and moves without restriction. Many people suffering with pain, chronic injury and/or lack of motion may be having fascial problems, but are not diagnosed. How does MFR work? MFR works by treating the body as one complete interconnected whole, working on one point of the fascia system has an effect on the whole. Just as adding a restriction affects the whole, releasing restrictions & pain in one area can release in another area.
