About Alice
The human body and the reasons why we can end up in pain fascinate me. Trauma, illness, postural patterns, stress and anxiety can all result in acute and chronic pain. Over the years I have completed extensive training - learning different techniques for helping people get out of pain and become more mobile.
Adding ScarWork and Oncology massage to my repertoire has increased my knowledge and skill base - allowing me to support more people in their journeys to improved health and well-being.
As a massage therapist I often felt that a piece of my 'therapy jigsaw' was missing. Using massage therapy to get people out of pain has been very effective for me but keeping people out of pain can be more difficult if you are unable to address the causes.
This is why I decided to train as a Pilates instructor. Pilates is a collection of exercises designed to retrain the body to use the correct muscles at the correct time; thereby correcting alignment and restoring balance. I love Pilates because it provides the scaffolding that supports your body through every day activities.
