Your neck carries more than you think—literally. The average human head weighs about 5kg 😱, and your neck holds it up all day, every day.

Add in screens, stress, and less-than-ideal posture, and it’s no surprise the neck and shoulders are one of the first places to hold tension.⁠
⁠
Neck massage can help ease that tight, heavy feeling—supporting better posture, reducing headaches, and helping you feel more comfortable in your body.⁠

If your neck’s been doing the most lately, it might be time to give it a break. Link in bio to book!

Joking aside — have you tried this after a long day? 🧘‍♀️

Child’s pose and a deep sigh might look simple, but the shift it can create in your body and mind is real. It’s especially powerful when you make it a supported pose — using a bolster, a rolled-up blanket, or whatever soft thing is within reach.

✨ Here’s why it feels so good:
🍃 Gently relaxes the hips, back, and shoulders
🍃 Calms the nervous system and supports digestion
🍃 Encourages deep, diaphragmatic breathing
🍃 Helps you pause and come back to yourself — even just for a minute

Sometimes it’s not about doing more — it’s about letting go.

Save this for the end of a long day — your body will thank you.

☀️ A Calm Space in a Busy Summer ☀️

With summer holidays just around the corner, life can start to feel a little hectic.

If you’re craving a moment to slow down and breathe, I offer massage and gentle 1:1 yoga sessions in Folkestone and group yoga in Hythe to help you reconnect with yourself.

A little calm goes a long way.

💫 Thank you to everyone who’s joined my Friday Slow Flow class so far—it’s been such a joy to share space with you each week!

As the class finds its rhythm, the £5 intro offer has now ended. Going forward, it's £10 per class or £40 for a 5-class block.

Still gentle, spacious, and welcoming—just a little update as I settle into this offering.

Come move with me Fridays 12:30–1:30 at Hythe Sports Pavilion. 💛

💫If you picked up one of my earlier flyers in Hythe, just let me know- I’ll still honor the £5 for your first visit.

Hi, it’s me Alyssa—your friendly neighborhood massage therapist checking in.

How are you today?

It’s a question I ask, in some shape or form, with every person who walks through the door. And it’s not just small talk—it’s a way to better understand how I may help you.

Had a stressful week and a racing mind? We might start with some deep, grounding breaths to help you settle in.

Feeling tender or emotional? Maybe it feels better to keep the pressure gentle, so the session feels nurturing and safe.

Carrying a lot of physical tension? That might call for slower, deeper techniques to help your body begin to unwind.

Every massage is a conversation—a collaboration between how you’re feeling, what you share, and what I notice in your body. I listen and adapt throughout, so the session can support you in the way you need it most.

So, let me ask again: How are you feeling today?

✨ Supported Reclined Bound Angle Pose ✨
A gentle reclined stretch that opens the chest and hips while allowing your body to relax deeply.

You can easily adapt it with props—a bolster under your back, a block under your head, or a strap around your hips—to make it comfortable and accessible for your unique body.

This pose helps to:
🌿 Release tension in the hips
🌸 Gently open the chest for better breathing
🌙 Encourage deep relaxation

For me personally, the block under the head is a game changer — it supports my head without putting strain on my neck.

👇 What’s your go-to prop for making poses feel better? Or, if you haven’t tried using props yet, what’s one pose you’d like to make more comfortable? Let me know in the comments! 💬

Falling asleep during a massage?It happens all the time! It means your body feels safe, held, and relaxed enough to truly let go.

So if you drift off… let it happen
There’s nothing you need to do now but rest. Take it as a sign you’re giving yourself exactly what you need.

I take it as a compliment- you’re deeply at ease.
