I'm based in Sissinghurst, just outside Cranbrook, and I work on my own. Every sports massage gets my full time and attention. That means my diary fills up. If the time you want isn't available, you've got two options. Join my waitlist through the Fresha app, or book a Priority Appointment outside my scheduled hours. Here's how both work.

I used to have a massage gun. Most therapists do, or have at some point. They look purposeful, they feel powerful, and the marketing around them is convincing. But the more I used one, the less comfortable I felt recommending them to clients. Is a massage gun safe to use on your neck? It is a question I get asked fairly often: is a massage gun safe to use at home? The honest answer is that it depends entirely on where you use it and how. The issue is not vibration therapy its

Myofascial release is a slow, hands on approach that works with the body’s connective tissue rather than forcing change through pressure. I use it when tension feels deep, persistent, or resistant to stretching and massage alone. The work is steady and responsive, allowing tissue time to settle and movement to return. Many people describe feeling lighter, calmer, or more at ease afterwards, both physically and mentally.

I notice a familiar pattern with clients who have not been in for a while. When I check in, many say the same thing. They meant to come back sooner, but time got away from them, and now it feels awkward to book again. This comes up often when people think about massage after a long break. I get it, life fills the space, work gets busy, your energy dips or finances shift. You manage as best you can and keep telling yourself you will book soon. Weeks turn into months. At some p

People search for Swedish massage a lot. It is familiar. It feels safe. It is often the thing people know how to ask for. Here is the honest bit. Most massage techniques overlap. The names matter far less than how the work is done and how your body responds. I use Swedish massage techniques in almost every session. Long strokes, kneading, focused work, slower rhythm. They are the foundations. What I do not do is stick rigidly to one label. Bodies are not standardised. Neither

Dry cupping is a manual therapy technique that uses suction rather than pressure to work with muscle and connective tissue. I use it as part of a massage session when it feels appropriate, often in areas that don’t respond well to repeated deep pressure. Some people notice a strong pulling sensation, others feel a sense of release. It isn’t a standalone treatment. It’s one of several tools I may use to adapt the session to what your body needs on the day.

I’ve been using red light therapy within my treatment for a while now and thought I'd share what it's all about. Red l ight therapy is something people often ask about after seeing it online. Most aren’t sure what it actually does, and a lot are understandably sceptical. That’s fair. Red light therapy, often shortened to RLT, is a non invasive form of light therapy that uses red and near infrared light applied to the body. You sit or lie comfortably while the light is appl

People often ask whether they should book sports massage or deep tissue massage. I’ll be honest, the label matters far less than people think. Massage is hands on work with muscle and connective tissue. What matters is how I adapt pressure, pace, and technique to your body on the day. I offer one massage treatment and tailor each session to what you actually need, not a category on a menu.

I came across this Guardian article and it echoed so much of what I see in practice, that massage creates real shifts in pain, stress and how the body feels.

Massage and dry needling work together to ease stubborn lower back pain by targeting muscle tension, fascia restriction and stress patterns that keep pain stuck. At my studio in Sissinghurst, treatments focus on freeing movement, calming the nervous system and helping you live without that constant ache. Evidence-based, hands-on and tailored to how your body moves.

Massage isn’t just for younger bodies. At my Sissinghurst clinic, I help people from their teens to their eighties move easier, breathe deeper, and feel better in their bodies.

Most of my male clients wait until they’re in pain to book. Two-thirds of my clients are women because they treat massage like maintenance, not just crisis care. In this blog, I break down the mistake men often make when it comes to sports massage, what they’re missing, and how regular treatment can improve sleep, recovery, and performance.

I work on my own. Every client gets my full attention, and I don't rush people through. That means my diary fills up, and sometimes the slot you want isn't available. That's not a reason to put up with the pain or go somewhere else. It's exactly why the waitlist exists. What the waitlist actually does It keeps your name in the mix. You tell Fresha which days and times work for you, and if something opens up, you get notified straight away. You can then book it there and then.
