The body is the most intelligent form of technology

A journey into the deeper layers of the body.
Working with adhesions, tissue that has adapted to injury, stress, repetition or prolonged holding, nerve mobility, myofascial restriction, joints and deeper holding patterns.
This work may include myofascial release, trigger point work, acupressure, active release, muscle energy techniques, myoskeletal + joint mobilisation, nerve flossing and cupping.
A more focused and physically specific approach to working with areas of restriction, tension and limited mobility.
Offered in 3 tailored blocks - 60, 90 + 120 minutes.
-
Your body guides the session. A temple style fusion experience. An unravelling exploration of dynamic, table work, where bodywork flows through touch, sound, breath, inviting you to meet the elements both within and around you.
Offered in 3 tailored blocks - 60, 90 + 120 minutes.
-
These sessions include the seat of the soul, the sacrum, the backdoor of the womb + heart, the front body, breasts, abdominal cavity, womb and ovaries. This work is external.

Trust your body, connect with your baby.
For those in the prenatal portal, from week 1 through week 40+, Heidi offers multi modal pregnancy bodywork
The work incorporates release work, jiggling, rocking, pulsating, breath and movement, supporting the nervous system to soften, surrender, and find ease. Each session is a tender, grounding experience honouring the miraculous unfolding of your body and the life within.
how i work
There is no fixed way this work unfolds - a multi modal approach
I don't work from a set structure or sequence
Sometimes we flow.
Sometimes we listen + hold.
Sometimes the work is deep, focused + intense.
Sometimes it becomes dynamic + movement-based.
Sometimes you're completely receiving… Other times you're an active participant in the work.
Sometimes you hang off the table. Sometimes you're seated, sometimes you lay.
Sometimes with oil, sometimes without.
The approach changes according to your body, your intention + what is present on the day.
Share where you are at, and trust the work to unfold from there.

Behind the work
Meet Heidi, an integrative bodyworker + somatic movement guide.
I’m interested in the in~between.
The space between tension + ease, movement + stillness, sensation + perception, structure + experience.
The places that aren't always obvious, but can be felt.
This work is grounded in the understanding that the body is continually shaped by experience, environment, movement + relationship.
How we move, breathe, hold tension, orient ourselves and respond to sensation is a reflection of how we sense + perceive the world.
My practice brings together bodywork, movement, breath + sensory awareness, creating space to explore the body as an interconnected, changing system.
My path into this work began through loss + grief, + physical pain. Out of this, Love From Me was born , a practice grounded in curiosity, connection + a deepening relationship with the body.
I see the body not as something to fix or correct, but as something to listen to, observe, explore + develop a relationship with. From this relationship, change can emerge.
This work may meet you as a single session, or become something you return to over time, an ongoing process of unwinding, unravelling + embodying yourself.
Love From Me, To You. REMEMBER

THE HEART OF MY WORK
Rooted in Therapeutic Intimacy
𖦹 Blend of modalities
Each session is an intuitive weaving of practices, learnings, ancient traditions, and wisdom. There are no fixed sequences, only attunement to your body’s story.
𖦹 consent + boundaries
This is a safe space for you to feel empowered to speak your truth + your boundaries.
𖦹 Listening
To initial dialogue, the bodies dialogue of subtle gestures, and first touch to session flow ~ sometimes listening during a session may mean being with an area with stillness.
𖦹 SPACE + INTENTION
Drawn into. I don’t hold space; we become the space together. The guide for each session with presence.
𖦹 Silence
Quietude is honoured. Words arise only for initial dialogue, dropping in or sound of release, this space is not for casual connection, small talk, or getting to know me. I like to suggest that after a session it is also quiet, perhaps a short share, whilst not attaching to stories.
𖦹 Organic, Low/No tox
All oils, herbs, balms, mists used are as clean as possible, low to no tox, biodynamic where possible or organic. Heidi uses certified organic coconut oil, castor oil, in most sessions as well as essential oils.
This mentorship is less about learning a method, and more about developing your own way of sensing, feeling, seeing, thinking and working with both your own body and another.
As you become more attuned to your own body, movement, breath and patterns, your capacity to listen through touch naturally deepens. The body becomes less something to fix, and more something to enter into relationship with.
Rather than teaching you what to do, this mentorship invites you to cultivate presence, curiosity and discernment, qualities that allow you to respond to the uniqueness of every body you meet.
Learning + Mentorship
-
This work is for experienced bodyworkers, physical therapists, dancers, talk therapists.
You may feel curious are a pull towards this if....
You sense there is more to bodywork than muscles, techniques and protocols.
Perhaps you're seeking inspiration, a fresh perspective, or a more integrative way of working. You may wish to deepen your understanding of the body, refine your touch, or develop the confidence to work with greater creativity, intuition and adaptability.
This mentorship may be for you if you wish to:
Refine the quality, sensitivity and presence of your touch.
Feel more creative and intuitive, responding to what is present rather than relying on fixed structures or routines.
Be with the interconnected nature of the body.
Integrate movement, breath and body awareness into your work.
Move beyond a muscle-by-muscle approach and begin seeing the body as an integrated whole.
Explore the emotional, energetic and relational dimensions of touch alongside the physical body.
Develop confidence working with complex or persistent presentations.
Bring touch into your existing practice, whether in movement, dance, Pilates, yoga or talk therapy.
Reignite curiosity, creativity and inspiration in your work.
Continue evolving not only as a practitioner, but as a participant in life.
