Body Therapy
Open Up A Conversation with your Body
Reset Your Nervous System
Body Therapy is an intuitive fusion of accupressure and energy healing. I work with the layers of your physical & energetic body to bring you back into balance.
Body Therapy works on the premise that your body already knows what to do to come back to balance. A Body Therapy session will support and amplify this natural process by bringing the body and mind into a deep relaxed state, a sense of safety and compassionate awareness.
When your body receives the message that you are safe, ready and willing to heal, energy begins to flow more efficiently.
We can fall out of alignment or health when our strong experiences go unadressed or ignored. We can experience this as feeling ungrounded, anxious, stuck, trapped, tense, off balance, one-sided, polarised, fried, stressed, tired, exhausted, lethargic, depressed, unclear, unsure, indecisive, lost, overworked, overwhelmed, disconnected, out of touch, or not yourself.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is Body Therapy different to massage?
Body Therapy is next level! Massage often focuses on the muscles or just one aspect of the body systems, or one technique, and can sometimes be painful! Body Therapy integrates various healing modalities including massage, accupressure, qigong and more with strong intuition to work with your body rather than on it to create deep and profound relaxation – the perfect foundation for a balanced mind-body-spirit.
What can I expect in a session?
Body Theapy sessions are fully clothed and often floor based, although can be accomodated to your mobility and physical requirements. Expect to feel deeply relaxed, light, calmly energised, grounded, and peaceful.
I don’t necessarily focus on, or try to ‘fix’ a physical condition, injury or concern. There’s no poking and massaging of knots – it’s completely pain-free. The gentle work brings your body into a state of deep rest which encourgaes your body’s natural healing and flow.

Generally, no. Body Therapy sessions are fully clothed and involve acupressure and other techniques which don’t require oil to adjust the body. Sometimes diluted essential oil sprays or drops are used to stimulate a sense of calm and relaxation.
Is Body Therapy safe during pregnancy?
Yes! Please let me know if you are pregnant and I can adjust for your session. You can even be seated comfortable if laying on your back or side is no longer comfortable for extended periods of time.
