Nutrition & Advanced Clinical Massage Therapist

Advanced Clinical Massage Therapy

If you're looking for a functional, personalised approach to healing and treating your musculoskeletal disorder, health or stress-related issue, you are in excellent hands with Nicola.

Nicola, our massage therapist originally qualified over 15 years ago in Holistic / Swedish Massage and Anatomy & Physiology with the International Therapeutic Education Council (ITEC), where she received the highest award a ‘distinction’.

Since then Nicola has successfully completed postgraduate training in Advanced Clinical Bodywork techniques (including myofascial release and trigger point therapy) and Hot Stone Massage at the Jing Advanced Massage Training Institute. She holds a Certificate in Advanced Clinical Massage - the highest massage qualifications in the UK today, and has worked with sports professionals and celebs.

Our massage therapist also holds a Diploma in Facial Rejuvenation (Natural Face Lift Massage) from The London Centre of Indian Champissage International (LCICI) and a Diploma in Seated Acupressure Massage (On-site) from The European Shiatsu School.

Visceral Manipulation

Nicola, our massage therapist is also trained in neural and visceral manipulation with the Barral Institute to help people suffering from functional gut (e.g. SIBO - small intestine bacteria overgrowth, heartburn, constipation, abdominal pain) and respiratory health issues, related to soft tissue restrictions or injury in the abdominal and thoracic area. This has also enabled her to successfully treat pain, injury and lack of mobility elsewhere in the body that could be connected in some way to visceral restrictions. She is the only massage therapist in Cornwall practicing neural and visceral manipulation.

Emotional Freedom Technique & Matrix Re-Imprinting

Nicola is also an Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) & Matrix Reimprinting Practitioner where she obtained certificate level 1 & 2 with the founding EFT master Karl Dawson.

Nutrition & Functional Medicine

Nicola is a Holistic Nutritionist and Health Coach too, and has studied more than 100 different dietary theories with the Institute for Integrative Nutrition (the world's leading school in nutrition and wellness). She's also a Certified Functional Medicine Practitioner (obtained from the Functional Medicine University - a world leader in functional diagnostic training).

It's Nicola's aim to inspire and guide you towards consciously cultivating your best health and wellness yet. Her interest in bodywork, nutrition and functional medicine initially came from her own positive experiences that sparked a desire to learn more and help others enjoy better health.

Nicola is a registered member of the Complementary & Natural Healthcare Council (independent UK regulatory body), Complementary Health Professionals, and the International Association for Health Coaches.

She is fully insured to practice neural and visceral manipulation, massage therapy, nutrition, health coaching and functional medicine to help clients optimise their health.
