I’m a curious, conscious, creative and loving being.

Originally from France, I’ve embraced New Zealand as my home for the past several years.

Exploring the depths of humanity fascinates me. This is why I chose to dedicate my life being a health practitioner and my vision of health is simple: we hold all the keys to heal ourselves.

I’ll support you on your path to self-awareness through practices like Somatic Therapy, (e.g. Compassionate Inquiry), Body work, Integrative Medicine & Energy Healing.

Each day, I consciously choose to navigate life with integrity, joy, self-awareness, and gentleness, and I want you to know that you can do the same.

I have more than 10 years of experience working in the body work industry and I am very passionate about the benefits of massage, not only the soothing of muscles but also the relaxation of the mind.

Everyone deserves the healing power of touch.
