Violet offers you a nurturing space for deep relaxation and self-care; supporting you to release patterns of stress and tension held in your body. Every Massage session is unique; unfolding creatively and intuitively in response to your body and individual needs.
A whole myriad of traditional massage strokes and techniques ranging from subtle energy work to deep tissue release are combined with beautiful, organic, skin nourishing oils. Your massage session is tailored to you.
Upon arrival, we take some time to check in with how you are and what kind of session would be most beneficial for you on that particular day.
I have gathered over 14 years experience working with women with a wide range of needs; some seeking regular support for chronic long term health conditions or challenging life experiences and others needing a safe space to gently recover from anxiety and trauma.
Many women come to me who want to prioritise their own self care and well-being on a regular basis.
Please feel free to reach out and connect with me for a chat and to discuss your individual needs.
TESTIMONIALS
"Arriving in Violet’s therapy room means allowing myself the long sigh out of letting go and entrusting my mind and body to the loving hands of a healer. Violet holds the space beautifully - making it safe, emotionally warm, supportive and filled with kindness. In that space I felt myself opening to the places in me which had been holding on, contracted, fearful or ashamed. Just letting them be, no longer aversively pushing them away, allowing them to be felt made the process of self-awareness happen. If you are in need of a place and time to go more deeply into relaxation, healing, or self care, you have arrived at the hands and heart of the right woman. Many blessings await you." S.A
"I struggle with stiffness in my joints, particularly the left hip and neck. I have seen Violet for a while now for massage and find the sessions immensely beneficial and healing. Violet works in a definite yet intuitive way and her touch and sense of the person in front of her is fantastic. She really focuses on you and a session with her always feels like a real treat. I always come away feeling calmer, more centred and ready to face the world." H.L
"Violet has treated me with a wealth of practices, for ailments of the body and mind, and also for relaxation. She is a true healer, her hands have brought great comfort to my body when it has felt sore, her kindness and compassion have strengthened my spirit when it felt low. I just wish I lived closer to her so I could visit more regularly. I would wholeheartedly recommend her healing hands to everybody." C.O
Violet works creatively and intuitively, her holistic work transcends what I might consider a conventional massage, to instead invoke a meeting between two bodies, two energies. I write that, but I want to be direct, for one of the joys of seeing Violet is that she responds directly to what I ask of her: "I want to be energised," "I want to rest,” "My shoulders are sore," "I’m so tense," "I’m exhausted," etc… She opens a space for the general as for the specific, for the terrestrial as for the spiritual. She attends, as in she listens and she cares, she attends so well - it is a joy, a luxury and a necessity to be massaged by her. O.H
Violet has a rare gift and brings real warmth, kindness and sensitivity to her exquisite treatments. A healing session/massage with her is a truly blissful experience - restorative, nourishing and deeply relaxing and with a real emphasis on comfort which is very healing. I invariably feel cocooned and cared for, nurtured and cherished, able to blossom again. There is a deep sense of release and renewal in body mind and spirit. Violet brings many beautiful additional elements to her treatments including crystals, flowers, healing essences and aromatherapy oils, angelic words and music, heart-centered insights and attentive focus - all greatly enhancing the healing process."

I have a background in the Creative Arts and began my studies in London at Central Saint Martins gaining a Degree in Textile Design in 2006.
In 2008 I started working at Neals Yard Remedies in Norwich which introduced me to a whole world of holistic medicine and healing therapies..
I began a lifelong love affair with crafting and blending my own natural skincare products which I have been making and selling ever since..
In 2010 I studied for a Diploma in Holistic Massage and an A-Level in Anatomy, Physiology and Pathology with the Massage Training Institute (www.massagetraining.co.uk).
It was here I felt like I had arrived home and found my calling..
The key values of this school are integrity, sensitivity and creativity; teaching a diverse range of skills and techniques but with an intuitive approach; rather than through a series of routines like many traditional massage schools.
The holistic nature of this training brings awareness to the whole person; not just the physical body; but includes their mental, emotional and spiritual wellbeing also.
After completion of my studies in 2011 I began offering 1:1 sessions in Cambridge at the Bodywise Studio and also volunteering at the Cancer Help Centre, supporting cancer patients and their families.
In 2012 I gave birth to my beautiful daughter Myrtle and moved to the pilgrimage village of Walsingham in North Norfolk. Here I set up my 1:1 Massage practise which I ran until 2019 alongside working at wellbeing retreats and running women's retreat days and circles.
From 2016 - 2019 I completed an Apprenticeship and Facilitator Training in Womb Awakening with Seren and Azra Bertrand - Authors of the Award Winning books 'Womb Awakening' and 'Magdalene Mysteries'. This work continues to support and inform my sacred vocation in the Feminine Healing Arts.
Over the years I have completed many additional trainings including Gaia Energy Healing, Flower Essence Therapy, Indian Head Massage, Kansa Vatki foot Massage, Crystal Therapy and Chakra Balancing, Menstrual Cycle Coaching as well as many 1:1 Mentoring sessions with leading therapists in Advanced Massage Techniques.
In December 2019 I moved back to my place of birth to be closer to family and in 2022 gave birth to my beloved son Enki!
I look forward to welcoming you!
With Love, Violet
