ABOUT ME

I started my career as a Sports Massage therapist, as a level 4 SOFT TISSUE THERAPIST this enables me to asses, treat and offer post care advice which is something I have taken through into all my treatments.

I became passionate about the lymphatic system after being misdiagnosed with lymphoedema when I actually have Lipeodema. Both these conditions require MLD - Manual Lymphatic Drainage and throughout my adult life (now at the grand age of 44) I have received many different techniques on myself.  I discovered that two methods work for me, BRAZILIAN LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE and FG-MLD and these are both techniques I offer.  

I am fully qualified in FG-MLD (fluoroscopy guided manual lymphatic drainage) this method is highly recognised by the NHS and by the  Cancer Research UK charity.

Being qualified in Oncology and Scar Therapy has enabled me to adjust my treatments as and when required to be affective yet SAFE. 

I am PASSIONATE about helping my clients from maintenance through to more targetted treatments. I want my clients to feel RELAXED, to enjoy the massage however I also want the massage to have a purpose, for it to be a treatment that you benefit from.

 

I am dedicated to my training and have invested to make sure I offer the best treatment, to become the therapist I have been searching for myself.

 

Abigail

 

"Abigail has a truly unique expertise and talent. I am a woman in her late fifties having just recovered from a year of chemo for breast cancer as well as 45 years of the ravages of type 1 diabetes - so I am not the easiest client! Very stiff, lots of stomach surgeries plus having two kids means my body is challenging to say the least!  Abigail is super experienced in oncology and has taken care and time to work out how to get my body working again. I’ve committed to seeing her regularly and I’m feeling better and better all the time. She literally works wonders. Who knew how important lymphatic drainage was?

 

She is experienced, kind, personable and fun and I couldn’t recommend her highly enough."
