Zoë has a special way of listening to the body, and the life within & around it. A unique and integral part of many sessions is her ability to articulate the medicine unfolding as the session evolves. With that being said, quietness naturally happens for those needing deep, restorative rest during session.

While one-off treatments are wonderful, Zoë truly excels when she guiding you through a series of treatments or by ongoing care. By devoting yourself to care for your body & life’s energy flow over time, you will get to experience each treatment’s uniqueness as Zoë meets you where you are at each time. Bespoke Sessions naturally become an option for those returning in this way.

As well as a Diploma in Wellness & Relaxation Massage, Zoë is certified in Face Up™ sculpting massage, fascial unwinding, scar release, the C‑Section Release Method™ & abdominal massage. She has also undertaken personal studies in womanhood studies, menstrual cycle awareness, Chinese medicine, Holistic Pelvic Care™, energetic patterning & trauma-informed care, Contact Care™ and belly self‑care.

“I’ve had two amazing sessions with Zoë and have left both feeling blissfully relaxed and restored. Both times were slightly different, as she works with what you and your body are feeling at the time. Zoë is so welcoming, creating a safe and rejuvenating space that’s just magical. I’m fascinated by how fascial unwinding works and all the body’s different connections, and she’s always happy to explain and talk through what she’s doing/done.”
— Maddy
“I feel put back together - physically and spiritually. After three caesarean births, the scar tissue and adhesions had left me with ongoing tightness, pain and numbness. Seeing Zoë for treatment helped to release the tightness & pulling (which I learned had contributed to my ongoing back & shoulder pain) and I am genuinely able to move and breathe more freely and easily. When I touch my belly now, I don’t notice my scar, it’s smooth. It’s integrated. I am so grateful - not just for the work Zoë puts in, but her beautiful, kind, healing energy. This really is a must for all c-section mammas.”
— Ellen
“I had such a beautiful , transformative experience through Zoë’s massage and I don’t say that lightly. Zoë has a warm and open nature which extends through her practice. I felt very nourished and my body and face feel relaxed and renewed. Highly recommend.”
— Emma
