About Rebalance
I'm a London-based massage therapist and reflexologist passionate about women's health and wellbeing. I offer treatments to relax, restore and rebalance your body.
The healing power of touch
I am Janet, and my career as a massage therapist started while working as a carer for people with disabilities.
I started to intuitively use touch and massage with my client Emily as a way to care for her during her long shutdowns where communication was impossible.
I noticed her shutdowns duration shortened when I used massage and the experience gave me an insight into how powerful caring touch could be.
I started basic training in massage therapy at the London School of Massage and went on to specialise in Soft Tissue Therapy with Susan Findlay at the NLSSM (North London School of Sports Massage).
An introduction to Scar therapy
In 2019 I went through a discectomy surgery for disc herniation and two years of post-surgical pain due to scar formation and adhesions. This led me to train with Emma Holly in ScarWork, an innovative scar treatment modality invented by Sharon Wheeler, a pupil of Ida Rolf.
I now offer this powerful, non-invasive technique to my clients.

My journey with Reflexology
In the last two years my work has focused a lot on women's health and the cyclicality of our bodies. My lifelong challenges with dysmenorrhea made me discover Reflexology and I trained with Hagar Basis in the original Ingham Method.
Today my work is focused on Women's Health: the therapeutic modalities I offer aim at helping women in whatever phase of their life they are in, from period pain, hormonal imbalances, infertility, pregnancy and post-natal recovery, to the challenges of perimenopause and menopause.
Low-tox living and artisan soaps
My passion for soap making and organic and natural products stems from my women-centred work and understanding of how environmental toxins affect our hormones and health.

My monthly newsletter and blog have tips to help you understand the value of a low-tox living to keep your hormonal system in check and promote health and well-being.

remedial & restorative massage
Offering an integrative blend of massage therapy to suit your body's needs.
Since you are constantly building up tension in your body through everyday movement and lifestyle habits we recommend getting a massage every 2 weeks.
If you do sport or go to the gym- it's even more important to have regular massage to keep yourself injury free.
Deep tissue massage works to release trigger points and is great for tension release and relieving tightness in the body.
It's also great for the circulatory system and lymphatic flow.
If you suffer from tension-related headaches, you may find deep tissue massage helpful in reducing their frequency and severity.
Massage is a natural analgesic - when you relieve tension in the body you naturally relieve pain, so deep tissue massage can be a great complementary therapy when dealing with chronic pain.*
*If you are suffering from a pre-existing health condition, always check with your doctor before having any complementary treatment.
Remedial massage is similar to Deep Tissue massage in that it can be used to release deep tension and relieve tightness in the body. In addition to deep tissue massage techniques, Remedial massage also uses techniques from Physiotherapy & osteopathy.
Remedial massage may require the client to be more active in the therapy and may use resistance, movement, passive stretching etc.
Remedial massage may be used if there is a particular imbalance in your body. Your massage therapist will assess your body at each treatment to decide if remedial massage is required and you will often receive a combination of massage techniques tailored to your individual needs.
Experts agree that massage doesn't need to hurt to heal, in fact, painful massage may cause more harm than good.
It is possible to achieve deep tension release without exerting extreme pressure on the muscles or causing pain.
I work with your body to exert just the right amount of pressure to release tension in your muscles.
I may also combine deeply soothing and pain-free techniques like hot stone massage and breathwork to gently relieve tension without the pain normally associated with aggressive sports massage.
Your massage should be a relaxing and restorative experience.
I offer several different types of massage and sometimes I will tailor a unique mix of massage techniques according to what your body needs.
Types of massage include:
Relaxing/ Restorative
Good for when you're stressed, tired or worn out. Relaxing massage is perfect to lift your spirits and help you sleep. It's also the perfect treat after a busy week.
Deep Tissue
Deep tissue massage is suitable for deep tension release and if you do a lot of sport. If you suffer from tension headaches, clench your jaw or feel tension through your body then Deep Tissue massage can help to relieve the tension at a deep level.
Hot Stones
The heat from the hot stones used alongside gentle pressure can release deeply held tension in the body without the need for more aggressive massage techniques that you may come across.
Hot Stone Massage is deeply relaxing and perfect if you don't enjoy more intense massage therapy.
Sports Massage
If you go to the gym, run, cycle or engage in other sports regularly then you may be increasing stress in your body.
Regular sports massage is essential to keeping your body injury free and feeling great over the long-term. I recommend fortnightly sports massage for all regular gym goers and active individuals.
Scar Massage
Scar Therapy massage is a specialised massage technique distinct from normal massage therapy that works to improve skin function when you have scarring on your body.
Scar therapy is offered as a series of treatments and the results are usually permanent.

I'm glad you asked. Massage therapy and ScarWork™ are very different so I do not offer the treatments together.
ScarWork™ therapy can only be offered after a full appraisal and as part of a package of Scar therapy treatments.
If you have problematic or untreated scar tissue I recommend that you speak to me about Scar Therapy treatment.
You can of course continue to book separate massage sessions during this time.
