Health is a sense of strength, flexibility and a balanced state of life force flow within your body, mind and spirit.

CranioSacral Therapy involves the application of gentle touch to identify and release  possible tissue and fluid restrictions, energy blockages, and physical, mental and emotional stresses within your body that may be causing pain and dysfunction.

The intention is to instigate your self healing process toward vibrant health and vitality.

Massage Therapy can be defined as the physical manipulation of the body’s soft tissues to increase circulation, alleviate muscle tension and pain, accelerate healing of injury and promote general well being.

Reiki is a therapy which connects Universal Life Energy with the body’s innate ability to heal.

Utilising a combination of the above therapies, as well as appropriate techniques from other modalities I have studied, I am able to customise each treatment session to suit individual clients needs.

Many ailments may benefit from this integrated therapeutic hands on healing approach including but not limited to chronic fatigue, muscle tension and pain, joint pain and stiffness, soft tissue injury, migraine and headaches, menopausal symptoms, vertigo, compromised immunity, breathing and digestive issues, stress and overwhelm, anxiety, depression, trauma and grief.

My intention for each client is to facilitate the innate healing ability each of us possess.

About me

From a young age I have held a keen interest in natural therapies.

On leaving highschool I attended the National School of Aesthetics where I studied Anatomy & Physiology and Swedish Massage, gaining a Diploma in Physiactrics (ITEC).

From there I moved on to study Exercise Science Levels I and II at Christchurch Polytechnic.

After several years of living in the UK between bouts of travel to many amazing parts of the world, I returned to Christchurch to study for a Diploma in Massage Therapy at the Canterbury College of Natural Medicine.

I graduated with distinction from CCNM in 2004 and became self employed as a Massage Therapist in 2005.

I began my CranioSacral Therapy training in 2009 and in 2019 I became a certified CranioSacral Therapist with The Upledger Institute International.

I have completed levels 1-4 in The Touch for Health Kinesiology program and the First Degree in the Usui System of Reiki and continue to study a range of therapeutic modalites which further expand on my holistic treatment approach, enabling me to assist my clients in their healing process.

As my interests in the healing arts broaden so too does my interest in the science of quantum physics and its close relationship to ancient spiritual philosophies as I attempt to more deeply understand the human condition and how we can affect our somatic self (body) via our psyche (thoughts and beliefs).

This has led me to committing to the practices of Meditation, Qi Gong and Yoga with the intention of bringing my mind and body into harmony through breathing and co-ordinated postures and body movements.

I enjoy cycling and walking in the Port Hills near my home and love spending time amongst nature – a good portion of which is spent creating and tending to my garden (jungle:-).

I believe life is a journey of continual learning and growth and I strive to embrace each obstacle, challenge and blessing along the way as a step further to my own form of authentic personal enlightenment.
