Touch is fundamental.
We live in a tense and touch-starved society. When you receive safe, loving touch, your contracted muscles relax, your heart rate slows, and feelgood oxytocin flows.
I continue to be amazed by the transformation that occurs when we use touch to bring awareness to painful or numb areas of the body.
Massage is an ancient, global, and innately human healing art.
I work from the holistic perspective, assuming that all aspects of the human experience are interconnected. In my experience as a massage therapist, tension in the body is just as often the residue of unexpressed emotion as it is the residue of injury.
I believe the most effective way to achieve relaxation is by creating conditions that signal safety to the nervous system. I work on the energetic, the emotional, and the physical levels to bring you a profound experience of peace in every session.
My sessions begin with:
conversation
attunement
breathwork
so that your subconscious self can let their guard down, and our hearts can begin to beat in sync.
Through my hands I hear the story of your body.
All the fear, all the stress, all the pain.
I create a safe space for you to become aware of your tension, so we can do what’s required to release it. Visualisation, movement, sound and story are all effective tools of tension release, and I utilise them alongside the physical manipulations of massage therapy.
This is a mind-body massage.
beating heart • healing arts specialises in making the stuck move and the numb come alive.
A session of holistic massage therapy will bring you into a deeper state of presence, the place from where conscious healing begins.

Healing is a natural process of the human body, and your system is trying to heal from injury, illness, and trauma at all times. Holistic massage therapy is an excellent complement to medical or psychiatric treatment. We do not diagnose or treat medical conditions. Some conditions are contraindicated for massage therapy; every client will undertake a comprehensive health intake conversation before their first session.
