Body, Movement & Meaning
Understanding your body shouldn’t feel confusing or out of reach.
This section is where I share clear, evidence-informed guidance on pain, movement, recovery and Soft Tissue Therapy — rooted in clinical knowledge, ongoing research, and real-world experience.
Every article here reflects the same approach I use in practice: grounded in anatomy, guided by contemporary pain science, and always tailored to the complexities of real life. My aim is to help you feel more connected to your body — and more confident in how to support it.
Whether you're managing long-term discomfort, preparing for a physical goal, or just trying to move through daily life with more ease, these insights are written to help you make sense of what’s going on — and what might help.
If you have a question or there’s a topic you’d like to see covered, please don’t hesitate to ask. I’m always happy to help
Do I Need to Have an Injury to Benefit From Soft-Tissue Therapy?

What should I wear to the session?
Not sure what to wear to your first session? Here’s everything you need to know about clothing, modesty, and what to expect — so you can walk in feeling confident and at ease.
Is Soft-Tissue Therapy Safe for Pregnant Women?
Yes — Soft Tissue Therapy can be safe and supportive during pregnancy, depending on your stage and symptoms. I’ll always assess carefully and adapt the treatment for comfort.
What If I’m Ticklish?
Ticklish? You’re not the only one. I’ve worked with many clients who were nervous about treatment for this exact reason — and it’s never been a barrier. Soft Tissue Therapy can be adapted to feel calm, safe and effective, even for the most ticklish bodies.
