Meet your therapist
Luiza is a qualified massage therapist with a caring and sensitive approach to her clients. She offers a range of treatments to relax, restore, relieve pain and improve general health and well-being. Luiza believes that massage can benefit people of all ages and walks of life such as athletes, sports enthusiasts, accident victims and everyday people like tired parents and overstressed workers. She treats each person with the respect and dignity that they deserve. Luiza became convinced of the therapeutic benefits of massage therapy as a university student. Combining work and study was rewarding yet challenging at times. Time pressure and workload associated with assignments and exams had taken a toll on her health. She sought out massage therapy for relaxation and easing muscle tension. The fact, that something as simple as touch could have such a profound effect on a person inspired her to become a massage therapist.
Luiza combines her work as a therapist with her other passion - training in psychology. She is particularly interested in health psychology because of its focus on how the mind and body work together to help us stay healthy and cope with illness. This relationship is also present in massage therapy which employs body manipulation techniques that can have positive effect on both, physical and mental make-up of an individual. In her massage practice Luiza combines critical thinking with the caring heart of a healer. She understands the importance of evidence-based techniques, yet she can also engage the intuitive heart for lasting healing.
In her spare time, Luiza likes to keep fit and active. She loves sports and exercise of all kinds, especially running and swimming - to quiet her mind; and badminton, volleyball and hiking - to spend time with friends. She enjoys cooking healthy meals and delicious desserts, reading and art & design. Luiza also engages in regular yoga and meditation practice which helps her to stay focused and positive. She recognises the importance of looking after herself, so that she can reach her full potential for each session.
Luiza's approach to bodywork is based on the understanding that every person is different and requires a unique approach to healing. For this reason, she tailors each treatment specifically to the needs of the client. She firmly believes in quality over quantity, therefore she chooses to provide no more than five treatments a day. Client satisfaction and well-being is Luiza's number one priority. This shows in her unique, enjoyable and highly effective massage treatments. Assisting others on their path to greater health gives Luiza great satisfaction and she considers herself very fortunate to work in a job that she loves.
Luiza values continuing professional development and is always eager to learn new techniques and skills to provide the best care to her clients. She is a full member of the Federation of Holistic Therapists and has full Public Liability and Professional Indemnity Insurance.
