Thirty years of listening with my hands

Shiatsu, cupping, moxibustion and dry needling — hands-on therapy that works with your body's own capacity to heal, not just against the symptom.

Welcome to your path to holistic healing

With over 30 years of experience, I am here to support you on your journey to vibrant health and wellbeing. My approach is rooted in holistic healing — nurturing the whole person: body, mind, and spirit. Every individual is unique, and so is the healing process.

I combine time-honoured therapies such as Shiatsu, cupping, dry needling, moxibustion, and exercise therapy with the transformative power of energy medicine and the wisdom of food as medicine. This blend helps to restore balance, release tension, and promote natural healing.

Whether you are seeking relief from pain, stress reduction, or a deeper connection with your own health, I provide personalised care tailored to your needs. Together, we will explore the best ways to harmonise your energy, strengthen your body, and nourish yourself from the inside out.

Start your healing journey today — because lasting wellbeing comes from treating the whole person, not just symptoms.

For over 30 years, my work as a therapist has been grounded in a holistic philosophy — understanding that true health is not just the absence of illness, but a balanced, vibrant state of body, mind, and spirit.

Health is a dynamic interplay between physical vitality, emotional wellbeing, energy flow and lifestyle.

Wholesome, balanced nutrition as a foundation for wellness.

A collaborative journey, with care built around your needs and your life.

Moving beyond temporary relief toward wellbeing that holds.
