Aromatherapy ... it's more than just a smell, it's a prompt to your brain and nervous system to settle, soften and allow space to heal and recharge.

No-one wants to feel they are being rushed when arriving for or leaving a treatment. That goes against the very reason you may be here, a need to slow down, settle your nervous system and let go.

Do you want a therapist who listens, pays attention and adjusts treatments to suit your needs on the day?
I take time to do just that.... and if life presents health challenges, I work with you, and other health care professionals if needed, to make adjustments to support you, keep treatments safe and optimise your wellbeing.

We naturally focus on where pain is felt, but the body isn't always that straightforward.

Looking beyond the point of discomfort and understanding the wider picture often reveals the connections that matter most.

Massage is an investment in your good health.

As I get ready to leave my clinic for another day I reflect on why I love my job. Seeing the difference in clients, from arriving with tense jaws and pinched mouths to leaving with soft smiles and and happy sighs.
I took this picture this morning immersing myself in some outdoor feelgoodness to set me up for the day so I'm in a good space to support you.

I take time to listen and suggest different treatments, making adjustments to truly meet your needs.

I'm flexible about meeting your needs ...
Recently one of my regular clients who has been coming to see me for many years decided that he would benefit from something very different to his usual back massage. He felt that something gentler and soothing was needed to calm him. So we agreed on me massaging his face, including around the ears, neck, shoulders and hands.
It was very different massage with a very different outcome for him ... more settling, quieting ... more softening.
Face stroking is something many of us do intuitively to our children, our loved ones to calm and soothe. Emerging science backs this up as face massage can stimulate trigeminal sensory pathways, and some forms of facial or auricular stimulation can activate vagal pathways, producing calming effects.

I'll be offering cool flannels to my clients again this week to soothe and refresh you, keeping you comfortable as the hot days continue.
Warm wishes, Nicolle

Cool flannels have been going down a treat with clients this week as part of their treatment.
