Laura spent many years travelling the world and discovered various massage disciplines. I realised the positive benefits that massage has, physically, emotionally and psychologically. Natural alternative therapies became one of my biggest passions in life and so I decided to make this passion my career.

My Reiki journey began in 2003, and I did my initial training in Holistic Massage ten years ago at Essentials for Health, gaining a Level 4 diploma, the highest qualification for this type of massage in the UK. I then went on to train in Deep Tissue, Restorative, Pregnancy and Postnatal Massage. My Seated Acupressure training was with Touch Pro, the original school of chair massage and I am trained to an advanced level.
I am privileged to have learned from some of the industry's best therapists, such as Gerry Pyves, David Palmer, David Godfrey, Sarah Gregg, Gill Tree, and Sally Morris.

I specialise in treating office workers, as well as people with disabilities, pre and postnatal mums and the elderly. I’ve massaged at offices and events around London and the home counties, and at festivals throughout the UK. Before training as a massage therapist, I worked in the corporate sector for 13 years, firstly as a PA and then as an Executive Assistant. I also offer corporate treatments, and have a fantastic team of therapists who work alongside me. Between us we offer various massage disciplines, Reiki and reflexology, to happy office staff.

In this show we discussed the following:
