Q. Where do you work?
I offer massage from a number of locations across North and West Yorkshire: a peaceful heated space in Chapel Allerton, North Leeds, overlooking the Gledhow Valley Woods; a cosy rustic loft space at Bivouac near Masham, Ripon; at the Leeds Wellbeing Centre on Eastgate, Leeds City Centre.
Here’s my invitation to beautiful places.
Q. Do you offer mobile appointments?
I don’t offer a regular mobile practice however I do make the occasional exception. Only available to women at appointments within 20 miles of LS7.
Q. What is Hawaiian Lomi Lomi massage?
Lomi Lomi originated in Hawaii where families would use massage as a tool for healthcare. Like so many cultures, ancient Hawaiians understood the powerful effect massage can have on the mind and body.

Q. I’ve never had a massage before. Can you give me an idea of what to expect?
Appointments begin with a consultation. We’ll discuss what will happen in the treatment, your current health and what you’d like from your massage. I’ll leave the room to allow you privacy to change and get onto the massage table. I only offer draped massage. If requested, I use additional draping to cover a woman’s chest when massaging their stomach. Once the massage is over I will leave the room to allow you to dress again.
All sessions include a 5-10 minute dressing allowance as needed per client. To ensure you receive the most for your money, it is important to arrive on time for your appointment and undress and redress quickly.
If you’re not sure whether Lomi Lomi is right for you, get in touch. We can chat about what you need from your massage and answer any questions you have.
Q. I’d like to treat someone to a massage, do you offer gift vouchers?
I offer gift vouchers for one and two hour appointments. Please, take a look at my Gift Vouchers and Policies pages for more information.
Q. What do you use to massage?
I use fairly traded, organic coconut oil from Shea Butter Cottage who source quality ingredients directly from farmers, producers and community projects in Ghana. They donate 10% of the purchase price to their adopted workers co-operatives to pay health insurance, build public conveniences. Their products are vegan friendly too!

Q. Does taking medication prevent me from having a holistic massage?
It’s more likely a condition rather than a medication that would prevent you from having a Lomi Lomi massage. There are some conditions for which I legally require written approval from a doctor. If in doubt, get in touch with your doctor and check.
