I offer a holistic bodywork service for people with autism. I can help you ease physical pain, find more space in your body, learn how to relax, or teach you different ways to care for your body so that you feel better and more in balance in body and mind.
I am autistic and understand that there are often many barriers that may prevent people from accessing bodywork and other types of holistic therapy. Every session that I undertake is tailored to your needs. I offer a free pre-session consultation which can be done online, by telephone or by email. This allows you to meet me and get to know me before any bodywork happens.
Massage works to help regulate sensory input and provides tactile stimulation in a controlled and predictable manner. This can support sensory integration (the process of the brain organizing and responding to information from the senses), improve body awareness, and enhance overall sensory processing abilities. Deep massage can enhance proprioceptive awareness, allowing people to have a better sense of where their bodies are in space. It can also help to calm the nervous system, reduce anxiety, and provide a safe space in which to just ‘be’. All of this can lead to improved mood, better sleep patterns, and increased feeling of being ‘present’ in the body. And of course, we can work together at the same time to reduce chronic musculoskeletal pain, ease headaches and migraines, bring more space to the body and improve your range of motion.
I use various techniques in my work including deep tissue massage, myofascial release, trigger point therapy, passive mobility work, & hot stone massage. I also teach 1-2-1 yoga, breathwork and mindfulness.
