Lymphatic drainage massage:
Joanna Puddle is a Natural Wellness Specialist with over 10 years experience in bodywork and a previous background in mental health. My lymphatic drainage treatments are designed to activate our waste systems, strengthening the immune system and allowing the organs to detox and shift not only physical but also emotional and energetic blockages. My bodywork treatments are individually curated and seek to empower each client to engage and connect with their body to improve their health naturally and effectively, with a focus on root cause over symptomology.
Why body work?
I fell in love with massage whilst living in Malaysia in 2014 and observing how it is an integral part of Asian lifestyle and a natural aspect of daily relations between friends, family and community. Children naturally rub grandmothers sore feet, friends massage the hands and shoulders of broken-hearted friends and everyone regularly visits local massage establishments as part of their general health practices and as a first port of call for alleviating stress, pain and inflammation.
As a psychology graduate taking some time out to find clarity on my career path, after a few years of difficult work in the mental health and social sectors, I continued to integrate and observe Asian culture and recognised in myself how massage brought me a higher mind-body connection. I was noticing where I felt tension in my body, what or who triggered it, and how regular massage not only improves physical inflammations; but my awareness of my body's needs was more refined and this knock-on effect helped me to start noticing the value in nutrition choices, sleep and exercise practices
