PHILOSOPHY
Hi, I'm Ally, a home based Holistic Massage Therapist with over 6 years experience in bodywork. I work from my cosy front room in the heart of Frome, Somerset.
I truly believe we have the power to affect our own health and wellbeing through the choices we make and the lifestyles we lead. My goal is to bring my clients back into a state of balance and develop an understanding of the positive action they can take to affect their overall health and wellbeing.
In a world that is often rife with stress, overwork and over commitment it is so important that we take the time to take care of ourselves, to re-balance and restore when our energy levels become depleted and our stress levels high.
Being in a prolonged state of stress can detrimentally affect many of the 'housekeeping' functions of the body, including our digestion, the absorption of nutrients from our food, our immune function, healing and the repair of our tissues.
The good news is that there are so many ways to combat the negative effects stress has on our systems. A great starting point is to help the body get into a self-healing state by learning relaxation, and that's where massage can help.
"When you touch one thing with deep awareness,
you touch everything."
- Lao Tzu

GERRY / BATH
"I HAVE BEEN GOING TO ALLY FOR MASSAGE FOR A WHILE BUT I CANNOT TELL YOU THE IMPACT SHE HAS MADE ON ME SINCE I BECAME PREGNANT. STRUGGLING WITH BOTH MUSCULAR AND SCIATIC PAIN, ALLY HAS OFFERED RELIEF FROM THIS AS WELL AS ADVICE ON HOW TO MANAGE MYSELF AT HOME. AFTER A FULL BODY MASSAGE (SAFELY PROPPED UP ON MY SIDE WITH CUSHIONS), I JUST HAD MY FIRST NIGHT SLEEPING THROUGH THE NIGHT IN 6 MONTHS! ALLY SERIOUSLY KNOWS HER STUFF. EVERYTHING IS WELL RESEARCHED AND INFORMED, ALL THE WHILE HER TREATMENT ROOM IS THE MOST RELAXING LITTLE SPACE.
IF I COULD GIVE HER 100 STARS I WOULD... BOOK IN IMMEDIATELY!"
