About Me
Hi, my name is Laura (she/they) and I am a massage therapist and bodyworker based in Bristol, UK.
After graduating from a music degree in London I spent three years working in management and administration in the complementary health industry while completing my training, firstly in Thai Yoga Massage and then Holistic/Swedish massage. Working part-time as a massage therapist from home, I began to notice how much I valued working with clients from a diverse background, and how the complex relationship with the body can be so influenced by our identities, and the different issues and struggles that can arise in different groups. I decided to begin to educate myself on the issues faced by different groups of people to create as inclusive a practice as I could and completed CPD trainings to support this. I feel hugely privileged to do the work I find myself doing now, and I look forward to continuing to learn and develop as a therapist, practitioner and human.
My interests include plants, ethical living, feminism, music, non-fiction books, podcasts, swimming and being outdoors.
I look forward to meeting you!
