Heart of Nature

Because I’ve gained so much in my own life from altenative medicine and healing, I am a strong believer in their benefits. I am particularly interested in the use of colour, light and sound therapy as tools that enhance the healing of my work. .

Massage is a necessity not a luxury. We all have pysical tensions and stress, requiring time out to relax. Taking the time to focus from the inside to the out with a caring, nurturing touch that massage can offer.

My goal is to create a state of mental relaxation and body rejuvenation by utilising a variety of approaches. With care and consideration for the whole being. I assist in opening the body's pathways so tensions may he released.

As one’s pathways are open, they facilitate the release of accumulated toxins and help restore the body’s natural flow.
