Honestly! of late I just can’t stop the overflow of gratitude I have for my clients & how blessed I feel to be able to make a change to their felt sense of pain & discomfort in their bodies. Enabling them to go forward and do the things they love without fear & knowing they have go to tools in their back pocket if needs be! 🫶🫶🫶 now for the full truth, it’s not always a one time fix, it’s not always simple, it’s not always clear as day what the cause is BUT it is always my duty to work with my client to listen, to hold space for the emotional, physical & mental elements, to create a sense of safety & to educate as to the whats & whys. I Hope To empower everyone I meet to want to take better care of themselves & have some tools enable & empower them to do so! There is never a quick fix despite what you are often sold! You have to want to get better & to look after your body outside of treatment time too! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Helping others to the best of my ability managing chronic & acute pain! Using soft tissue therapy, myofascial release & dry needling mostly! Not only by treating the symptoms, but getting to the root of the problem & regaining a balance of muscle & fascia throughout the body!

SCAR WORK, no matter the age of the scar, is so powerful to improve the condition & texture of the scar & surrounding tissues, the quality & range of movement, reduce redness, improve sensation, reduce pain and so much more! Here are some before and afters on a wonderful client of mine who’s had multiple surgeries on her right arm & was struggling with multiple negative symptoms from 2 scars in particular! Whilst pictures don’t tell the whole story here is how she feels from her short course of scar treatments:
“After treatment both scars (one 7 years old and the other 10 months) feel significantly less sore and raised. The burning sensation that I have in my hand and wrist has also reduced. Not only is there is a clear increase in range of movement but there is less pain/tightness when doing so. It’s so nice to see this level of improvement after 5 sessions - and to have hope that improvements can be made even with older scars!”

Its always special when clients bring their dogs to treatments, but today was extra special as I gained a helper! She didn’t need much training, just watched me for 30mins & she knew just what to do!! 🥰🥰🥰

The work can be simple & yet so effective, finding the pattern & allowing the hands to take you there. Myofascial release & the varied tools I use I only ever aim to aid someone from a place of pain to one without! Sometimes it’s one session, sometimes it’s a journey of unravelling,
Taking much more time. But if you are willing to trust, to be held, to breathe, the body will release & remodel as it needs to find its place of ease! 💫

Always grateful for feedback & reviews 🥰 whilst I can never promise you’ll be back to 100% in one treatment I try my best to make sure we get to the root of the issue & have you well on the road to recovery as soon as possible! Sometimes feeling “back to normal (or even better than normal)” can take 1 treatment, sometimes 10! It’s about the journey, you will learn through feeling what your body needs & where the issues lie! But I play my part by listening to your words & your body & aim to adjust my treatments to suit exactly what you need at that given moment in time! It is a process & an ever evolving one! 🙏🏼 I am grateful for all that my clients teach me & the trust they have in me too! # Norwich

I find this picture of the sky I took on the weekend such an encapsulation of what we aim for in life & what I only hope to provide you in my treatments. We have the dark clouds from below, the light fluffy clouds from above & all we strive for is that balanced line in the middle! A lot of the time, clients come to me in pain, but what I notice first is their energy! It may be darting around all over the place when stressed, completely repressed when life is just feeling like it’s too much, or a lot heavier like the dark clouds when there is sadness, grieving, relationship difficulties or trauma & we often have these expectations that we should be as light & fluffy as the whispy clouds instead. But the magic lies in finding that calm place of ease right in the middle. This middle line is where the body can drop into its optimal healing space! The body knows how to heal, it knows what it needs, we just so rarely drop in to listen, to slow down & allow the body the time & space to allow it’s beautiful magic to flow! I aim to hold this safe space for you, to calm the nervous system, to tune in to the needs of your body & encourage your body into healing mode. For some this is instantaneous, for others this takes a few sessions. For some this requires assistance from a psychotherapist, a physiotherapist, or a somatic bodyworker. We may need various tools to help in this journey of healing! But do know that pain is the body’s way of revealing to you what it can no longer hold on to from within! Any stress formulated in the mind will be expressed in your body through behaviours, pains & illnesses! Know that your body can heal, your mind will heal, we just need to give it the right environment to do so & it is a journey that starts with awareness! It is not a quick fix! ♥️

“Gemma, what do I call you? A Physio? Massage therapist? Magician?” (Joking! 🪄) this is a question I get asked a lot & sometimes it’s not a concise answer, but this is “who I am & what I do:” I like to call myself a SOFT TISSUE THERAPIST! So what does this mean? It means I work with all the soft tissues of the body to influence Fascia, Muscles, Tendons, Ligaments, Lymph, Blood flow, the Nervous system to promote healing in the body! I use a multitude of tools in which to do so. My primary power is that of TOUCH! Including Various massage skills, Myofascial release, specific ScarWork, holding, breathing, dry needling & stretching! Do I fix people? NO! I help people improve & manage their symptoms, with the aim to get to the root of the problem ASAP! But it is NEVER a one time “fix”! I work with my clients by building their awareness, bringing them truly home to their bodies & enable them to FEEL! But my clients have a role to play in changing unhelpful habits, managing stress levels & doing helpful movements regularly to improve their symptoms, guided by me. It is about building a relationship! One with themselves & one with me! I work with each and every individual to meet their exact needs! I work with anyone who is experiencing pain, has limited range & quality of movement somewhere in their body, anyone that is really stressed & frequently ill as a result, pre & post surgery, anyone with scarring that is causing problems, including burns, c-sections, oncology treatments; anyone struggling to manage symptoms of an acute & chronic illness! I hope this clears things up. I’m not a fan of putting myself in a box & like many body therapists, I spend a lot of time & money each year on trainings to grow my knowledge, to better help more people & as the years go by I continue to learn through education & hands on experience, which gives me so much pleasure to impart on to others! If I can help you in person or by distance, do not hesitate to reach out! ✨

C-section scar pre/post treatment no.1! 10 months post operation. Top picture: pre scar therapy treatment; skin looking dehydrated, “wavy” in shape & hard in texture. Bottom picture: post scar therapy treatment, skin looks plumper, more linear in shape & softer to touch. Client had symptoms of numbness, a general disconnect to the area & soreness when working out! Straight away she felt more connected to her scar in a pleasant away, having more awareness of it. I have encouraged her to continue her own simple massage to the area to continue the journey of acceptance & integration of the scar. Helping to maintain the softness of the tissue. This minimises the potential of further fascial interference & movement dysfunction. A scar we see on the surface, is just the tip of the iceberg! Layers of fascia & muscle interference underneath can cause local & referred pain, visceral organ malfunction & movement restriction throughout the fascial pathways! ✨
