Hello you. Welcome to my website. How are you?
Now, close your eyes. Take a moment to scan your body, and listen. How are you really feeling? It won’t be unusual to find you’re holding physical or emotional tension somewhere. Emotions, anxieties and stress are often carried in our physical selves, with muscle pain, tension and tiredness being natural responses. It could be that life events or work pressures are weighing heavily, a medical condition is causing muscle soreness, or physical pain has developed after exercise. These are all areas where holistic massage can help you feel better.
You’re invited to allow yourself to slow down, to immerse yourself in deep and delicious relaxation, to step into a place of peace and calm, away from the stresses and stressors, in a quiet corner of North Somerset, tucked away under a beautiful lime tree.
What do we mean by ‘holistic massage’? Well, in simple terms holistic massage doesn’t just focus on one single symptom. It considers your whole wellbeing – physical, emotional, and spiritual (‘wholistic’). If we focus purely on the physical body, we’re ignoring the emotional body that might be feeding into those physical aches and pains. The body’s natural response is to heal itself. Holistic massage can support that innate response. It works with you and alongside you to rebalance and improve your overall wellbeing. Nurturing, intuitive and instinctive it can be profoundly powerful.
Each holistic massage session is tailored, avoiding standard ‘routines’ and ‘set pieces’ so often found elsewhere. I use a range of massage and bodywork techniques, including classic Swedish techniques, deep tissue, passive mobilisations and stretches, acupressure, and energy work. I’m also polyvagal (trauma) informed.
Beginning with an initial consultation with you, together with my experience and knowledge of anatomy and physiology, we’ll agree a holistic session that’s fully attuned to you and what you need on the day, and delivered with the intention of looking after you as the wonderful individual being that you are.
Sessions of 30, 60, 90, or 120 minutes are available. I deliberately don’t have an online booking system, so Text, Email, or WhatsApp me to book.
Thank you for visiting my website. I hope to see you soon.

Caroline has such wonderful, calming energy and instantly makes you feel comfortable. She checks in before every session to gauge how you’re feeling and if you have any concerns.
The space is very relaxing too.”

“I’ve had the wonderful pleasure of receiving a full body massage from Caroline which made me feel calm and cared for and allowed my muscles a moment of joy.”
Nicola, Bristol (Dec 2022)
“The best thing about going to see Caroline is that she creates a totally calm, relaxed environment. This helps me unwind and best experience the benefits of massage.
Caroline’s starting point is to ask about particular wants at this time, including aches and pain areas to focus on / avoid.
Caroline is super gentle and caring in her attentiveness, both in her communication and therapeutic practice. She is completely professional and trained in the latest practices to the highest standards. I would not hesitate to recommend her.”
