soma space therapies

Hello everyone,

It’s been a long, long, long time! I hope you are all doing wonderfully well. A lot has changed since my last newsletter, I hope for you too - ‘every day’s another dawning’.

I have some exciting news: in addition to my offerings to you as a yoga instructor, I am now offering massage and complementary therapies as a Certified Massage Therapist (specializing in Swedish - Holistic - Aromatherapy Massage) and Aromatherapist (Level 3 ITEC/VTCT, Federation of Holistic Therapists Member).

As a Massage Therapist, I provide bespoke, therapeutic massage treatments that help restore balance and energy, promoting healing, rest, relaxation for the body systems.  

As an Aromatherapist, I work with pure essential oils and cold-pressed carrier oils, creating organic herbal infusions and blends to best support a clients’ needs. Massage and aromatherapy can help to treat a number of conditions as a complementary therapy; in my practice, I also provide a particular focus on women’s health (hormonal balance for peri - early - menopause symptoms), supporting mid-life transitions and client-focused care.

My interest in complementary therapies and the transformative potentials of bodywork, massage, and therapeutic properties of plants, flowers and herbs began many years ago, and compliment my holistic approach to restoring wellness to the whole person - mind, body, and spirit.

I’d like to welcome you to Soma Space Therapies - my new website - and more information on these offerings. To schedule a session with me, you can reach me here. For new clients, I provide a discounted rate and a complementary bespoke herbal therapy offering for your first treatment!

Aromatherapy Massage -  

A full body massage treatment that combines the therapeutic properties of holistic massage with the healing properties of essential oils and carrier oils. A relaxing and restorative massage. Bespoke blends are tailored to individual client preferences and can treat a number of physical - mental - energetic conditions. A total experience: the treatment room is infused with essential oils so you can immerse and imbibe in the benefits, along with sound therapy elements to open and close the session.

Swedish / Classical Massage -

The foundation for many Western massage practices. A traditional full body Swedish/ Classical massage is both stimulating and relaxing. Swedish/ Classical style massage helps to stimulate the different body systems, and can improve muscle condition and circulation by manipulating soft tissue, warming the physical body, reducing overall tension and inflammation, leaving you feeling uplifted, soothed and supported.

Holistic Massage -   

A full body massage treatment that soothes and treats the entire person and the energies of the subtle bodies/ body of light. A rebalancing and integrative massage. The treatment room is infused with essential oils so you can immerse and imbibe in the benefits of a holistic healing experience, vibrational sound therapy is provided by Tibetan tingsha bells and bowls to open and close the session.
