A few moments from last week’s Hawaiian Lomi Lomi Massage – at The Glasgow School of Massage

We explored how to offer effective, comfortable massage through thoughtful pressure, good communication and techniques adapted to the person on the table.

Lovely to see everyone sharing ideas, practising new skills and building confidence. Thank you to everyone who joined us! 🙌

Reflecting on the week and sharing a few moments from Wednesday’s Pregnancy Massage class 💛

A day of extra learning for massage therapists who want to understand more about pregnancy, and how that understanding can help them adapt the already fantastic massage treatments they offer.

We explored the changes people experience during pregnancy and how to adapt positioning, support and treatment to each person’s needs, helping therapists build confidence in their care.

A huge thank you to our pregnant volunteers for joining us and sharing your experiences. It’s always such a privilege to have you in the classroom and to support you through massage.

💜 I DID IT! 💜

I PASSED! 🎉🥳

After months of studying, practising, revising, treating clients, writing notes, questioning everything I thought I knew 😂 and a slightly nerve-wracking final exam...

I am officially a Qualified Level 3 Massage Therapist! ✨

And this one feels extra special because massage has actually been part of my life for as long as I can remember. My mum trained in massage when I was just 2 years old and she has always inspired me. 💜

A huge thank you to every single person who has booked a treatment, volunteered their time, given me feedback, recommended me, supported me and generally put up with me talking about massage for the last 9 months! 😂💜

I couldn't have done it without you.

Now onto the next chapter of Relax & Restore…🌿✨

Today I had the privilege of attending oncology massage training with The Glasgow School of Massage 💚

I was made to feel so welcome in an environment where I didn’t know a single person. It got me thinking about how important that feeling of being comfortable, safe and welcomed really is — and I hope that everyone who comes through my door feels exactly the same.

I’m continually working hard to broaden my knowledge and develop my skills, so that my massage practice can be as inclusive as possible and I can support people through different stages and circumstances in life.

Whatever stage of your journey you may be at, I hope that my little treatment room can offer you some calm and comfort 💚 at a time when life can sometimes feel unpredictable.

Today was another little step in that journey. There is always more to learn, and I’m very grateful to be able to keep learning and growing. 🌿

In the meantime, I’ll be working through some case studies as part of my training, but I’m really looking forward to being able to offer oncology massage in the near future. 💚
