Knead to Let Go - Somatic Massage Therapy — Massage therapist in Brighton, England

Had such a lovely hot stone massage with Nicola. We chatted before so I knew what to expect and she explained how she worked with the body to get the most out of the massage. It was a great experience and I left feeling very relaxed and rejuvenated! Would definitely recommend.

I'm finding it difficult to find the words that can adequately describe my experience of Somatic Therapy with Nicola, it has been truly amazing. I have had a lot of talking therapies, but none have made such a difference to my everyday life, as working with Nicola. She has a calm, empathic presence and intuitevly knows what my body needs. She has a relaxed and flexible approach that immediately instills confidence and trust. She is also able to normalise my experience by clear explanations and the sharing her own experience. I would highly recommend Nicola.

I had the most incredible experience with Nicola. She was recommended to me by a family member, and although I arrived feeling a bit nervous, I felt completely held and comfortable from the moment I walked in. Nicola took the time to explain everything so clearly - what somatic massage involves, how to connect mind and body, and what to expect at each stage. That level of care instantly put me at ease. The session itself was really moving. I left feeling grounded, lighter and genuinely changed in a way I didn’t expect. It’s rare to feel that safe and understood without having to explain anything, but Nicola creates that space so naturally. I can’t stop recommending her to people - it was a very special experience.

This was a truly amazing experience. Nicola is very knowledgeable, spent a lot of time explaining her approach before the massage and guided me through it with such skill - amazing results. I feel totally different and connected to my body like never before. I could not recommend more highly.

Such a safe space is created by Nicola, to enable aplace to really connect to your body, listen, love and let go. The treatment felt very powerful, deep and full of compassion. I’d seen Nicola’s work when we collaborated on a somatic sauna ritual; and knew I needed to show myself the same love and care that was received that day. I now feel Much lighter and calmer, but also really in awe of how our bodies work and how when we listen to what they are saying, we can help ourselves heal - thank you 💜

I took part in a wonderful somatic massage and sauna ritual a few days ago. Nicola was very focused ( in the heat of the Sauna !) and created a very healing space with her work. I can highly recommended her healing touch and commitment to helping people to reconnect to themselves .

I had my first treatment with Nicola recently and was keen to leave a review as the treatment and time spent with Nicola was just so wonderful. I have never experienced a Somatic treatment before but had been recommended Nicola by a work colleague. I knew that I would benefit from the session but I wasn’t sure how much. My gosh- it was just magic what I was able to release with Nicola’s guidance and expertise. Nicola is so warm and friendly and extremely knowledgeable. I felt reassured, safe and cared for throughout. It has been so eye opening and enlightening receiving a somatic massage and I will definitely return. What a wonderful human Nicola is. Thank you again for the time you spent helping me, on so many levels that day Nicola. I feel more calm and lighter already.

I had a 90 minute somatic massage with reflexology with Nicola today and it was frankly life changing. I have had massages all over the world but never had one that felt like true therapy with a deep full body & mind connection. I think she is a magic because she managed to make my overly tense body feel fluid and happy again. She intuitively knows which areas you need help with. She is just wonderful. If I win the lottery I’m building an extension and moving her in as I’d love this care daily. Thank you so much Nicola and see you soon. Xx

Nicola is one of the most informed therapists I’ve met when it comes to the understanding of the body and mind and how they interlink. I’ve had my second massage with her now and the way she can put words to my physical muscular tension and make sense of it all has really helped me to understand why my body is holding onto certain things. I go in feeling heavy and bogged down and I come out feeling so light and warm. She really does have the magic touch and I would really recommend to anyone who’s looking for a healing release. Treat yourself with Nicola’s love.♥️

Nicola is truly an amazing person and has the kindest soul. I had my first experience of a 2 hour somatic massage session yesterday. I was really nervous and didn’t know what to expect at all, but Nicola made me feel at ease instantly and I felt comfortable. I cried even before the massage started as we were talking and Nicola explained everything about the mind and body connection; which all made so much sense and I could relate to it all. Nicola is truly amazing, so knowledgeable and passionate about her craft. She is caring, compassionate and it was just such an amazing experience. I knew I would need more than one session as I have decades of built up stress and trauma; lots of which melted away just after one session however, I’m already excited about my next one. I’m so pleased I found you, Nicola. Thank you so much! ☺️
