About Papilio Holistic Therapies

Having some time after my children started school and then experiencing the challenges of Covid, I witnessed the mental health struggles of those around me. This prompted me to reflect on what career path would not only fulfil me but also contribute positively to others' lives. Massage therapy, a practice I had always loved, seemed to beckon me during this time of introspection. I embarked on a transformative journey at Bristol College of Massage and Bodywork (BCMB), where I found my passion for holistic massage deeply affirmed.

 

My approach isn't just about physical relief; it's about reconnecting with the self and enabling emotional healing. Whether it's helping someone manage the stresses of daily life or aiding in the processing of deeper emotional experiences, every session is an opportunity for profound healing.

 

My training at BCMB was rigorous, covering not only anatomy, physiology and pathology but also energy work and techniques like trigger point therapy. This comprehensive education allows me to offer informed, effective treatments tailored to your specific needs.

 

In addition to my massage therapy practice, I am also a Reiki practitioner. Learning about energy work at BCMB inspired me to pursue Reiki, further enhancing my ability to provide holistic healing experiences.

 

As a member of the Massage Training Institution (MTI), I actively earn Continuing Professional Development (CPD) points to maintain high standards of practice. Additionally, I participate in a monthly supervision group, which enriches my continued learning and professional development.

 

I am passionate about treating each client as an individual, listening attentively to their needs, and adapting my approach accordingly. Whether you seek relaxation, deep tissue relief, or specialised care such as pregnancy massage, I am dedicated to providing a therapeutic experience that nurtures both body and soul.

 

Simplicity, authenticity, and a genuine desire to connect define my practice. I invite you to explore how holistic massage can support your well-being and look forward to welcoming you to a space of healing and renewal.
