She is now also a qualified Thai Massage teacher.
In addition to her clinic work, Sarah offers On-site Massage in various businesses throughout Edinburgh. She also enjoys working at marathons and sporting events with Athletes' Angels.
Sarah chose to study massage after several years of living with ME (Chronic Fatigue), having found massage hugely beneficial in easing her symptoms during this time. After initially working from her clinic at her home in the Highlands, she now live and works in Edinburgh.
Sarah feels hugely passionate about her work and enjoys learning new techniques and putting them into practice. She can easily empathise with clients affected by chronic pain and illness, having experienced the benefits first hand during her own convalescence.

Testimonials
"I have a long standing rugby induced neck injury. This plays up from time to time, aggravated by long hours behind the computer. The resulting neck and shoulder muscle spasm often triggers migraine too. I have found Sarah's massage therapy extremely helpful both in treating and preventing symptoms. Sarah is friendly, yet very professional, making the massage session very comfortable and relaxing. I have no hesitation in highly recommending Sarah as a massage therapist." M from Edinburgh
"I enjoyed the massage I had from you and I felt that it was very effective in loosening tight muscles in my back and legs without giving pain or leaving me with pain or feeling washed out. The pressure was just right! I was surprised to learn that you have only been working as a therapist for a relatively short time - you have a great touch and good technique which can only get better as your experience increases." L from Edinburgh
"That was the best massage I have ever had. The pressure was perfect and I feel totally relaxed now. I can't thank you enough, I will definitely be back." A from Edinburgh
