Personalised Massage Therapy in Paignton designed specifically for people with Chronic Pain, Stress & Sensory-Sensitivity

Unique Massage Therapy in Paignton designed specifically for people with Chronic Pain, Stress & Sensory-Sensitivity

Living with ongoing pain, tension, or stress?

Then you’ve likely tried treatments that felt too generic, too intense, not really addressing the complexities of what you’ve got going on, or maybe even you’ve been turned away and refused treatment because the therapist didn’t know how to work with your body…

I pride myself on over 8 years of working successfully with people with complex conditions, to understand, manage and improve their pain.

As every session is personalised to you, you’ll always be receiving a massage treatment that works with your body, not against it. This is hugely important especially for people with complex or chronic conditions that can fluctuate wildly from day to day.

I’ll also never give you generic home care advice that can feel wildly unachievable when you’re dealing with an already overwhelmed system.

We will work together and look at you as a unique individual, your challenges and your goals, to tailor a plan that resonates with you so that you find it easy and even enjoyable to fit in with your life.

We also look at where you’re at now, not comparing yourself to where you ‘should’ be, or to what might be ‘normal’ for other people. This enables us to truly personalise what we’re doing to genuinely help your mind and body.

Just a little side note - although I can provide excellent and effective exercise rehab plans for clients with injuries, I find that for clients with complex conditions / chronic pain / overwhelm, these just feel completely and utterly impossible to get started with - and especially for people with PEM (post exercise malaise) I would never, ever look at this. Home care should align with you as an individual, and if you’re system is already exhausted, beginning with exercise is not the smart way forward, there’s so much more we can do to help you.

When it comes to hands on massage treatment during your appointment, I offer advanced level massage therapy and I have specifically made it my mission to keep at the forefront of developments in chronic pain and complex conditions so that I can provide you with the very best, most effective treatment.

Whilst most massage therapists are taught the same techniques, the important thing when it comes to chronic pain and complex conditions, is understanding how to apply them appropriately for a nervous system that is already overwhelmed, and most importantly - when NOT to use them!

I use a combination of soft tissue therapy, remedial massage, myofascial release, and other evidence-based techniques, using an approach that works with your already overstimulated nervous system.

Your treatment is adapted in real time based on your body, your comfort, what you need that day and the feedback your body gives.

No routines. No unnecessary pain. No one-size-fits-all approach.

A very different kind of massage experience.

This is a calm, private space in my home in Paignton, designed to help you feel at ease from the moment you arrive.

• Quiet, low-pressure environment

• Clear communication throughout your treatment

• You’re always in control of pressure and pace

• I will never ever “push through pain”

This approach is especially valued by:

• People living with chronic pain

• Women in midlife and beyond

• Neurodivergent clients who prefer a calm, predictable experience

How your treatment works

Every appointment begins with a consultation to understand:

• Your current pain experience

• Medical history and lifestyle factors

• What you want to get out of working with me

From there, your treatment may include:

• Soft tissue therapy and remedial techniques

• Deep or gentle pressure (always your choice and always adapted during treatment to suit you)

• Myofascial release and trigger point work

• Joint mobilisations and movement-based techniques

• Relaxation-focused work where needed

You may also receive tailored aftercare advice, including simple exercises (only if appropriate) or lifestyle suggestions to support you between sessions.

Effective treatment doesn’t have to be painful

Many clients come to me after experiencing treatments that felt too aggressive.

My approach is different.

You’ll be checked in with throughout your session, and you’re always encouraged to ask for adjustments. The goal is to help your body release tension safely and effectively by calming your nervous system — not forcing it.

A premium, personalised service

As a Level 5 qualified soft tissue therapist, I provide a high level of care grounded in ongoing professional development and evidence-based practice.

This is a premium service for people who value:

• Expertise and experience

• Individual attention

• Treatments that adapt as your needs change
