Gentle and holistic approach to enhancing your overall wellbeing
Vacuum cupping is a therapeutic technique that utilises a vacuum force created using a small silicone or plastic cup applied to the skin’s surface. It’s main aim is to improve blood flow to specific areas of the body. It can also help to remove toxins from tissues and reduce pain as a result.
Cupping is a form of chinese medicine and can facilitate the flow of “qi” meaning energy. It can help balance yin and yang which is thought to help the body fight pathogens, increase blood flow and reduce pain. It can leave you with what look like bruises in the shape of circles. This is however the blood that has been brought towards the surface of the skin and out of stagnant muscles.
Cupping is used to complement other forms of therapy to promoting healing and reduce pain. Best avoided if you take blood thinners, skin conditions, varicose veins.
Ready to experience the benefits of Cupping? As with all out therapies, cupping can also be used as part of a session. Book your session with Katie and she will personalise your treatment with what you need / want.
While my treatments are available for individual booking, I often combine various approaches, including massage, dry needling, cupping, hot stones therapy, and craniosacral therapy, to create a holistic treatment tailored to your unique needs. If you prefer to stick with just one service, let me know, and I will ensure your session is customised to meet your preferences.

Real Results, Real People
For decades I have had varying degrees of lower back pain and tried everything from injections to traction. I resigned myself to taking painkillers for many years. Recently the pain was more severe and I couldn't turn over in bed or get out of bed to go to the bathroom without it hurting. I was recommended to go to Katie by a family member after he had a serious back injury. Am I glad I did. After some weeks of intense treatment followed by monthly appointments and suggestions for exercises as well as advice on stress causing pain together with diet, I am now pain free and not taking any painkillers. If it reoccurs in the future I will have booster sessions. I have no hesitation in recommending Katie to anyone with back pain.
I’ve been seeing Katie for a while and the difference to my day to day life is absolutely incredible. I was not a cripple but suffered most days with back pain and aches. I had accepted that this was life. Katie challenged this in multiple ways. She didn’t just go through the motions and tried many ways to help. Also encouraging me to help myself. I can’t recommend Katie highly enough. A brilliant innovative professional service. From someone who has a passion for her job and wants too really help.
I had back and neck pain that was a constant struggle and this triggered almost daily headaches. After just 1 session everything was so much better and the headaches have improved dramatically.
First CST (Craniosacral therapy) session - I think I was aware of it for babies but this was new for me. Subtle and intense, a release of stress, tension, pressure. What I thought was 15-20 minutes was over an hour. Katie - a calm, professional presence as always.
