About Shelley
After seeing the many benefits of complementary therapies during her 12 years as a front line worker in social care/ mental health settings Shelley was inspired to become a professional massage therapist. Over the last 10 years she has worked in various Complementary Therapy clinics (including Neals Yard Remedies), corporate on site venues and volunteered for the Samaritans and MIND. During the massage session, this large skill-set coupled with Shelley’s commitment to holistic well-being support the unfolding of the body’s natural healing mechanisms of her clients.
ITEC Level 4 Sports / Remedial Massage is accepted by most health Insurers.
“I have a special interest in the mind body connection and believe the body can be a great educator, that massage can bring awareness to the body, especially when we are in physical pain or stressed. Self care and bodywork can be the first thing to go when we need them the most. Human touch restores our physical and spiritual balance, and releases the endorphins that lift and relax us."
