Massage Therapy

Massage is a type of integrative medicine in which a massage therapist rubs and kneads skin, muscles, tendons and ligaments. In massage therapy, a massage therapist rubs and kneads the soft tissues of your body. The soft tissues include muscle, connective tissue, tendons, ligaments and skin.
There are many benefits to massage therapy, the main ones being; increase circulation, relieve tension, reduce stress, relieve anxiety, improve sleep, and promote relaxation.
At your massage appointment, I like to ensure you get what you want from the time. It is your time to relax and switch off, or if you would rather chat, that is okay too. Either way, the muscles of the body are being worked. I check in with you to make sure the pressure is okay and that you are getting the maximum benefits from the massage.
Oftentimes, I combine the use of Aromatherapy oils and Reiki, to create an ultimate relaxing, healing and overall sense of wellbeing to the mind, body and spirit.
Nurture & Embrace
Hi, I'm Kellie. I'm a qualified midwife, hypnobirthing teacher and mother. I'm also an ITEC qualified massage therapist and Aromatherapist. I have level 1 and 2 Dr. Usui Reiki completed also.
Since qualifying as a midwife in 2020, I've been on a journey. A journey of self discovery. I have come to conclusion that birth in Ireland is not discussed enough and there is no education provided in schools. Therefore, this leaves people unsure of what to expect when it comes to having their own babies.
We can work together to ensure you have a calm, comfortable and empowered birthing experience.
