✨ Modifications ✨

No pose is one size fits all and I love how many options you can have for 1 pose!

Here is Melting Heart (Uttana Shishosana) 4 ways:
1. You can bring the forehead down to a block (or a blanket) to rest your head for more support
2. If you feel any pinching in the shoulders, you can modify this by bending the arms
3. This one is a typical approach you’ll likely see for this pose
4. For even more intensity, you can bring your chin (instead of forehead) to mat

See what works best for you and your body 🧘🏼‍♀️

🍂 As the season shifts, so does our practice. Slow Flow is evolving into Restorative Flow—gentle movement and deep stillness designed to nourish and restore. 🌿✨

Join me Wednesdays, 7:15–8:15pm at Grace Hill Studios.

Inflammation isn’t only about injuries—it can also build up in the body from ongoing stress, tension, and daily strain. When this happens, the body is working hard to find balance again, but it can leave you feeling heavy, achy, or fatigued.

Massage can gently support this natural process by:
✨ Encouraging healthy blood flow to nourish muscles and tissues
✨ Helping the lymphatic system clear waste and reduce puffiness
✨ Soothing the nervous system, easing the effects of stress on the body

It’s not about “switching off” inflammation, but about creating the right conditions for your body to heal, restore, and feel more at ease.

💆‍♀️ Think of it as a gentle nudge back toward balance—inside and out.

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?
