ABOUT Massage in Motion
Qualified Massage Therapist
Over 20 Years Experience
I am a fully qualified massage therapist with over 20 years of experience. I trained with the Academy of Natural Health in London and whilst establishing my business, I gained a tremendous amount of experience. I was privileged to work with MIND, the mental health charity; did a stint at the top London hotels, and part-managed a holistic therapies centre.
I relocated to Colwyn Bay in 2006 and developed my client base with private clients of all ages and physical conditions in their own homes or workplace. I have provided massage to NHS patients with additional learning needs and mental health challenges. I have also enjoyed working at festivals, including BBC Radio’s Big Weekend and Glastonbury.
I am passionate about my work and know that I will never stop learning about the human body or cease to marvel at its capacity for self-healing.
My approach is to give treatments in the way that I would wish to receive them by using the right amount of pressure, acknowledging that we are all mind-body-spirit, creating a safe and nurturing atmosphere, and being present with my client. I work intuitively, tailoring my treatment to the client and respecting confidentiality at all times.
I enjoy attending training courses to incorporate new skills into my work, such as stretching, pulsing, trigger points and healing touch. A few years ago, I qualified in a cutting edge therapy called Emmett Technique, developed by Australian practitioner Ross Emmett. This involves light finger touch to very specific points on the body which may assist in releasing muscle tension; improving mobility and reducing pain. Please see www.emmett-uk.com for more information.
I am a member of the Complementary Therapists Association.
What Our Clients Say
“I have used this massage service for the past 13 years. For myself and my son. Our monthly massages have kept me mobilised, relaxed and balanced. Deborah has the magic touch, seeking out and finding muscle knots and then releasing the trapped tension. I have also recommended Deborah to the guests staying in my holiday rental cabins and they have raved about her ability. My son has grown up to understand the importance of monthly massages and always falls asleep during his. Thank you Deborah for your soothing and healing ministration to keep us well. ”
