Hello I'm Gwen, founder of Resilience Wellbeing.

I believe there is always something we can do to improve our situation.  It might be something simple but if we don't know that it exists, how can we change?

Massage therapy helped me improve my quality of life after I developed a shoulder impingement.  The time when I couldn't get dressed without pain, wash my hair properly or reach for something from the cupboard was difficult.  I slept badly, didn't have the energy for much of a social life and was no fun to live with.

Gentle contact with the overworked muscles and supporting movement at a pace that was manageable, gradually encouraged the shoulder to move to a place that required less effort to maintain.  There was less pain and more movement, oh and better quality sleep.  

I hadn't planned on becoming a massage therapist but an opportunity to attend a course changed my mind.  I loved discovering I could help my clients rediscover comfort and relaxation after being distracted by pain and restrictions.
 
The physical support given to my clients during massage therapy ranges from tuning into the soft tissues of the body to learn their needs, softening overworked muscles to release tension and facilitating movement.

Connecting mind and body helps with recovery; thoughts and actions affect our physical form so we highlight what’s helpful and beneficial.  

I have a special interest working with women after breast cancer treatment and enjoy the subtle changes that occur as a result of acknowledging scars or releasing residual tension. 

The body can hold onto tension in many places so our assessment and treatment considers headaches, teeth grinding, back pain, arm movement range and mobility related to any scar tissue.

I love working with engaged clients who continue their healing practices outside the treatment room.  

Message me here to book your treatment plan or try a 90 minute assess and release tension session to feel the difference.
