Hi, I’m Miranda

My approach to helping clients focuses on relieving discomfort and restoring balance within the body. Each session is intuitively guided and tailored to meet the unique needs of the individual, recognizing that the body is constantly changing. This dynamic process evolves with each treatment, ensuring that each session remains relevant and responsive to the body's needs.

My early career as a dancer sparked an interest in the moving body, which naturally transitioned into massage, soft tissue therapy, and Pilates. Over the years, I have honed my skills and developed a broad range of therapeutic techniques, deepening my understanding of the interconnectedness of the body, mind, and spirit.

Currently, I reside in the wilds of North Devon working from clinics in Bideford and Barnstaple .

Movement continues to play a vital role in my life, and I understand the challenges of returning to a movement practice after a period of inactivity. To further support my clients, I also offer mat-based Pilates sessions as a BASI-trained instructor. I am currently training with Karin Gurtner in FAMO fascia movement therapy, integrating this approach into my classes and sessions to provide an even more holistic movement experience.

I am passionate about enhancing well-being through bodywork, massage, and nature-based practices, and I am committed to contributing to your wellness journey.
