Cancer Care Massage
Cancer Care Massage provides safe, gentle, and highly specialised bodywork tailored specifically for individuals navigating a cancer diagnosis, active treatment, recovery, or palliative care. Bodywork during cancer is both safe and deeply supportive when delivered by a practitioner with dedicated oncology training.
Drawing on a thorough understanding of cancer care, treatments are adjusted to respect your current health status, blood counts, medical devices, and treatment timelines—including chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or surgery. Using light touch, mindful positioning, and adapted pressure, sessions focus on relieving physical discomfort, easing joint and muscle stiffness, lessening fatigue, and soothing treatment-related side effects.
Beyond physical relief, these sessions offer a peaceful, compassionate space to quiet an overstimulated nervous system, reduce anxiety, and support your overall wellbeing throughout your health journey.
Indian Head Massage
Indian Head Massage is a deeply calming treatment focused on the upper body, where everyday stress, screen-based working, and postural strain most commonly settle. By targeting the shoulders, neck, scalp, and face, this session works systematically to release muscular restriction and soothe the central nervous system.
Using a combination of gentle friction, rhythmic pressure, and targeted muscular work, treatments help alleviate tension headaches, neck stiffness, jaw clenching, and eye strain. It is an ideal treatment for unwinding an overworked mind, easing physical fatigue, and restoring deep mental clarity.
Treatments
Deep Tissue / Therapeutic Massage
Deep Tissue and Therapeutic Massage combines slow, deliberate pressure with specialized bodywork techniques—including myofascial release, targeted muscle work, and gentle joint mobilisation. By addressing both the deeper layers of muscle tissue and broader movement patterns, this integrated treatment works to release chronic tension, ease persistent pain, and accelerate physical recovery.
Whether you are managing athletic fatigue, posture-related strain, or recovering from an overuse injury, every session is tailored to your unique biomechanics and health history. Pressure is always calibrated to your comfort level, ensuring a safe, highly effective, and restorative experience with clear communication throughout.
Reiki
Reiki-energy healing is a gentle, non-invasive therapy that supports physical, emotional, and mental relaxation. Using light touch or hands held slightly above the body, treatments facilitate a calming flow of energy to lower stress, release deep-seated tension, and promote overall wellbeing.
Laura’s approach is uniquely grounded in her PhD research, "The Embodiment of Reiki-energy as a resource for creative healing". As a Reiki Master and Teacher, she blends a lived, embodied understanding of energy with practical therapeutic techniques. This rare combination allows clients to bridge physical recovery with mental clarity, guiding you through both restorative healing and creative renewal.
Pregnancy Massage
Pregnancy Massage provides safe, nurturing, and specialised care designed to support your body throughout every stage of pregnancy, including the first trimester. When delivered by an experienced, qualified practitioner, bodywork is entirely safe across all trimesters, offering essential relief for physical strain, postural changes, and daily fatigue.
Treatments feature the use of a specialised pregnancy bolster, allowing you to lie comfortably and safely on your front for the duration of your session. Your comfort is always the absolute priority, and positioning can be modified at any moment should you wish.
By targeting common areas of discomfort—such as lower back ache, hip tightness, swollen ankles, and shoulder tension—Pregnancy Massage helps soothe your nervous system, improve sleep quality, and restore deep physical ease.
Hot Stones Massage
Hot Stone Massage utilises smooth, heated basalt stones integrated with therapeutic bodywork to melt away deep physical tightness and restore balance to an overactive nervous system. The penetrating warmth of the stones relaxes rigid muscle tissue, enhances local circulation, and encourages profound physical and mental relaxation.
Customise Your Session: Upon request, Hot Stone Massage can be seamlessly combined with Deep Tissue techniques. This creates a relaxing yet powerful session that soothes the soul while thoroughly releasing tension in deeply knotted muscles—giving you the benefits of deep muscular release alongside the restorative warmth of hot stone therapy.
It is an ideal treatment for persistent muscle stiffness, physical exhaustion, cold limbs, and stress-induced tightness.
