About

Welcome to Coastal Health and Wellbeing.

I believe that holding space, compassion and gentle hands on bodywork can create huge positive changes.

When we work with ourselves holistically with self-compassion, we can slowly build positive habits such as good nutrition, regular strength, mobility and neurological training, alongside small daily habits which creates space to effectively listen to our bodies needs and innate wisdom. These changes can shift through stuck emotions, traumas which create chronic tension and pain in our bodies. As we increase these positive habits with support, it allows a continuous upward spiral of making positive decisions for ourselves. We can slowly create boundaries and build positive relationships which support our wellbeing and health. My aim is always to do a piece of work by holding space, to guide and support with compassion, then allow individuals to independently self manage with a solid plan and helpful up to date information.

“I believe Integrated Bowen, specific hands on treatments and healing are powerful and profound therapies which can assist not only physical rehabilitation but also energetic and emotional recovery when complemented with lifestyle changes, strength, mobility and neurological programmes between sessions. Each treatment is tailored to the individual’s ever-changing needs”.

I am an exercise prescription therapist, Pilates reformer and equipment coach and personal trainer for general health & wellbeing, health conditions, chronic pain and restrictions. A health & wellbeing practitioner for anyone, including people living with long-term chronic health conditions such as cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, auto-immune diseases, COPD, mental health and those who are new to exercise and require one to one support.

For 12 years I have trained in sports therapy and rehabilitation, bodywork and clinical therapies, I have been known for clinical, sports, soft tissue and remedial work. Whilst I am very grateful for the learning and experience my training and clinic has given me, I no longer provide sports and deep tissue therapies. I have reduced what I offer to concentrate on lifestyle coaching, which includes Pilates reformer and exercise prescription coaching, nutrition, and lifestyle medicine.

I offer treatments and coaching packages for chronic musculoskeletal and myofascial pain and restrictions, compensation patterns, pre-diagnosed injuries and health conditions.

I now offer Integrated Bowen, bodywork, lymphatic bodywork, reflexology, table ayurvedic Yoga & Thai herbal compress, hot Stones, myofascial Cupping and energy healing treatments. I work with a client centered approach to understand your goals and develop a personalised treatment plan to make desired lifestyle changes between treatments to regain optimum health, wellbeing and vitality.
