Holistic Therapist
Hello
My name is Victoria, I’m a body therapist working in deep & soft tissue massage with intuitive blends of myofascial release, compression work & passive stretching. I am also trained in Holistic Fascia Release.
Our pain or stress can come from many places, which is why I work holistically, treating the whole body, rather than just the perceived issue or injury. Soft tissue massage involves stretching the muscle fibre to promote & maintain flexibility, while deep tissue massage concentrates on relaxing & releasing strain patterns within muscle, tendons & fascia.
My list of treatments are below, all are performed on a massage table in a restorative environment. Each session is tailored to your needs on the day & we will always discuss which methods & areas we will focus on before the massage begins.
Myofascial release & Holistic Fascia Release are gentle, yet powerful methods of freeing restrictions in the body’s fascial system (connective tissue) using deep, slow or still pressure. The intention is to relieve pain, resolve structural dysfunction or subconscious holding patterns .
Qualifications:
Foundation in Advanced Clinical Massage - Jing Advanced Massage Training.

I am a fully insured practitioner & member of The Federation Of Holistic Therapists (FHT). Customer testimonials can be found on my Google Business Page.
My treatment room is in Brighton’s South Lanes at The Practice Rooms, 57 Ship Street, BN1 1AF.
Soft or Deep Tissue
A blend of massage, compression work, passive stretching & myofascial release. Soft tissue massage involves stretching the muscle fibres to promote & maintain flexibility. The restorative benefits are decreased tension & stress release, but soft tissue massage can also relieve & prevent pain, improve flexibility, promote better circulation & improve sleep patterns. Deep tissue massage concentrates on relaxing & releasing strain patterns within muscle, tendons & fascia. It involves deeper techniques targeting specific areas of tension. It is especially helpful for contracted areas such as stiff necks & shoulders, back & leg pain & chronic pain. The movement is slower & the pressure is deeper. My treatments begin with compression or myofascial work to help you drop into your parasympathetic nervous system & because is each session is tailored to you, I often combine soft & deep therapy as required. Back, shoulders, neck & head, arms, legs are the typical areas worked in a full body massage, however you may prefer me to apply more focus on certain areas or less or none on others.

Holistic Fascia Release
Holistic Fascia Release is a massage technique that works specifically on the connective tissue (fascia) around the muscles, as well as working the muscles themselves. The intention is to undo unhelpful postural habits & subconscious holding patterns, bringing relief from chronic pain or discomfort. The experience is highly personal & can create long term stability and a higher awareness of self. The body responds best to this method in a series of sessions, as specific anatomy trains are worked per treatment. Read more.
