About Me
I have always had a passion for the way our body works, and the effect massage can have on all systems of the body. I have over twenty years’ experience in my field. Having completed my training in South Devon with ITEC in 1999, I headed to Sydney Australia for six years, where I continued my development in the latest massage techniques, including deep tissue massage and pressure point techniques. With a love of skin as well, I trained in facial therapy learning lymphatic drainage massage for the face and eyes.
Back in the Bay I have continued to expand my range of techniques and am now qualified in hot stone massage therapy; a wonderful technique which eases muscle tension, reduces stress and promotes sleep.

Love the skin you are in. Age, environment and stress are all conditions that cause degeneration of our skin. A loss of moisture elasticity and an impaired acid mantle mean that the skin cannot function properly. It is important to nourish and hydrate the skin as a living organ. A customised facial using the correct products can help to achieve a healthier skin.
