Massage Therapist & Reflexology

My journey into reflexology & therapy

My first experience of reflexology was at a stressful time in my life. The effect from the treatment was calming and relaxing. The treatments I received helped to manage the stress.

My journey into complementary therapy began with a personal interest in natural approaches to supporting both physical and mental well-being. This passion has grown into a professional practice where I support others in managing pain, relieving tension, and improving their overall quality of life — through tailored massage and reflexology treatments and practical aftercare guidance.

I am a member of the local running club Dulwich Runners AC. I regularly compete in club cross-country and road races, with my favourite distance being 10 miles, in which I have run a personal best and achieved 11th place in my age group in my 40s. I have also taken part in several road and cross-country team relays, winning a number of team medals. In addition, I have completed a few marathons and am well experienced in providing pre- and post-event sports massage.
