My Story
Anastasia
Certified Massage Therapist, London
I believe that skilled, attentive bodywork is one of the most effective things you can do for your physical and mental health — and that it should be accessible to anyone who needs it, without fuss.

How I Got Here
I trained in massage therapy because I'd experienced firsthand how transformative good bodywork could be. I'd had a period of severe back pain in my mid-twenties — the kind that makes you dread sitting down, struggle to sleep, and eventually start cancelling plans. Physio helped, but it was a skilled massage therapist who finally unravelled the tension pattern behind it. I was hooked.
After completing my professional certification, I spent several years working alongside other therapists, learning different approaches and building experience across a wide range of client presentations — from professional athletes managing training load to executives dealing with the physical toll of high-stress careers, to people simply wanting a consistent self-care practice.
I set up independently because I wanted to offer the kind of service I'd always wished was more available: private, unhurried, properly tailored, and honest. No upsells, no pressure, no generic treatments applied by rote.
My Approach
Every body is different. The same holding patterns, the same chronic tension, the same injury rarely presents exactly the same way in two different people. That's why I begin every new client relationship with a proper conversation — about what's bothering you, what you've tried, what hasn't worked, and what you're hoping to achieve.
I then design each session around what I find when I actually put my hands on you. Tissue doesn't lie. It tells me where the real tension is sitting, even if that's not where you thought it was. My job is to listen — to you, and to your body — and respond accordingly.
I work across the full range of massage modalities, but I'm not attached to any one technique. Swedish, deep tissue, myofascial release, trigger point therapy, sports massage, hot stones — I use whatever the situation calls for, and I'm always honest if I think another approach might serve you better.
