Testimonials

  • "Louise is one of the most gifted bodyworkers and healers I have ever worked with...

    Her depth of knowledge across so many modalities - including physiotherapy, acupuncture, cranio-sacral therapy, massage and yoga - gives her very special insight and skill. Ultimately though, it is her beautiful, kind energy that allows you to trust, open and heal - this is her true gift!”
    Callum

  • "Lou takes physiotherapy to a new level.

    She has an in-depth knowledge of the human body and how it functions, and draws on traditional Chinese acupuncture, cranio-sacral therapy and shiatsu to tailor truly holistic healing sessions. She is a gifted healer and I highly recommend her.”
    Mennie Scapens

  • "At first glance it is clear that Louise is equiped with a wide range of techniques and blends them seamlessly.

    Beneath the surface I have come to realise that she connects with and feels the body, ensuring she is working on the right spot, often before I know where that spot even is. Her intuition, ability and knowledge, culminate to the most potent healing experience I have ever been able to part of. I could not recommend more highly.”
