‘I went to see Emma because I had occasional lower back pain and a constant pain in my left hip. Her massages have made such a difference and not just in these areas. I hadn’t even realised how much tension I was holding in my shoulders prior to seeing her. Afterwards I had better flexibility and sleep much better as well. ‘ Jane Thorpe

‘I have had several massage sessions with Emma and every time I have left feeling totally massaged. Toes, calves, thighs, back, shoulders and even face were treated with an intuitive and effective touch. I have several injuries and Emma listened and then worked on them until they melted.’  Louise Duncan
