Restorative Bodywork
An offering of radical rest for your body. These sessions are gentle and slow, but can provide profound insights and moments of healing. When we slow down we can truly begin to tend to what lies beneath the noise. This can be an uncomfortable and sometimes intense process when we begin to slow down and realise how much we are not facing, and it's important we get support as this moves through us. Restorative bodywork aims to offer you a place where you can fully let go, surrender and be physically held and supported as you feel the tension, trauma and pain within your body. My prayer for this offering is to embody the Grandmother Crone and to offer a gentle hand as you process what needs to be processed (allowing the sighs, tears, roars and whatever else needs to flow) so that you can truly come into a space of rest and recovery.
"I’ve never experienced anything like this and could never have imagined that I would gain so much from one session. I'm excited to see what else is possible for me."
What is RB?
These sessions aim to provide a space to:
-
Come into a truly restful space in an environment that takes into consideration your own needs
-
Process emotions or experiences within a bottom-up rather than top-down approach; meaning that the main focus is the body, as opposed to the mind as within traditional talk-therapy
-
To truly let go and be held as you allow yourself to feel what needs to be felt within your body and nervous system
-
Release, process and express in whatever way is needed and necessary for you in the moment
-
Rest, rest and rest some more
​
What ‘s involved?
Sessions can involve a blend of guided inner enquiry, energy work, restorative assisted yoga postures, gentle intuitive massage, therapeutic nature-based practices and sound medicine to provide grounded, hands-on care and support to somatically process and release trauma stored within your body.
There will be a thorough consultation provided prior to your first session, as well as aftercare and integration support provided via email.
All sessions are in person due to the hands on nature of the work. I offer sessions in Cornwall and occasionally in Manchester (if you are Manchester based, please do get in touch to discuss the dates I am in the city). Sessions will be held within a local therapy space or within the comfort of your home.

Moon Cave Renewal
Although these sessions can be profound spaces of healing at any point in your cycle, this would be a beautiful offering to be held through during or just before your bleedtime. Our bleed is a time of deep renewal and when we create space to listen to our bodies wisdom and be held in this space we can receive potent medicine for our cycle ahead. This will require you to track your cycle for at least three months to know how long your cycle usually lasts for so you can plan and book the time. If you would like support with cycle tracking or if you have irregular cycles and would like some guidance on this so you can book at the time that suits you please do get in touch.
