Laura Williamson Biggs
About:
“Laura is special. She has magic hands! Each session starts with a simple conversation about why you’re there, what you need, and what outcome you want. And this shapes her approach. So i’ve benefited from some deep-tissue interventions from Laura that are anatomically precise tension release or remedial manipulation; but also more holistic treatments that support broader recovery or wellbeing; and most treatments blend the two. She “tunes in” really deeply – sensing how you respond to the treatment, in each moment, and adapting accordingly – sometimes validating what she detects with a question; sometimes guiding you to focus attention or breath to augment her touch. Her treatments are never “on rails” – but a product of profound attentiveness guiding great technical skill (anatomy, physiology, biomechanics, etc.) Some therapists have a purely mechanistic approach to manipulation. But Laura is always sensitised to (and deliberately invests effort in) the energy-exchange aspects of a treatment – which leads to more profound therapeutic impact. I teach yoga – so the combination of anatomical-function-and-alignment, and energy-flows-through-the-body, are important to me. Laura is expertly attuned to both. I cannot recommend her highly enough” Alex Hamilton-Wright“
"I had a few massages with Laura during my last pregnancy and felt so safe and relaxed with her. Her calm and warming presence made me feel instantly at ease. She is amazing at what she does and I cannot recommend her highly enough." P
"There is something very special about appointments with Laura. I really value her holistic approach and appreciate the knowledge, attention and intuition she brings to each appointment. I highly recommend booking with her." H

Vocal Massage (Manual therapy)
Vocal Massage Therapy, or manual therapy is designed for anyone who has a voice, particularly singers, actors and performers. This specialist massage therapy can help with:
Jaw and tongue root tension, pain, clicking, headaches
Improving vocal delivery
Swallowing disorders
Muscle Tension Dysphonia
Globus, a lump in the throat sensation

Myofascial Release Therapy
Myofascial Release Therapy (MFR) focuses on releasing the fascia in the body from causing muscles to tighten and cause pain or missalignment throughout the body.
Fascia runs throughout the body and is integral for bodily function and movement. MFR therapy encourages a 'release' effect and if effective enables the body to live with ease and optimal potential freedom of movement.
This form of therapy uses no oil. I use stretches and physical techniques, not equipment.

Deep Tissue Massage Therapy
Deep Tissue Massage is firm in pressure, focusing on areas of discomfort and the connective tissue in the body. The strokes are slow, reassuring and targeted in a specific area usually.
Sports massage and deep tissue massage works well when I adopt the idea of mobilising soft tissue in order to help athletes perform effectively and recover from injury.
This type of massage can also help with:
Digestion - abdominal massage
Nervous system resetting - vagus nerve
Rest/sleep/recovery from injury or burnout

Pregnancy Massage Therapy
Pregnancy Massage is designed to aid the mother and baby to rest and relax. This treatment is perfect for pregnant mothers and postpartum mothers as it nurtures the mind and body.

Reiki (Master level)
Reiki is non invasive, safe, holistic and natural healing. It derives from Japan, from Mikao Usui. 'Universal life force energy' can help with physical, mental and emotional diseases.
Reiki is the life energy which flows through all living things. This treatment may help with feeling of anxiety and panic, and bring ease, rest and calm into the mind and body.

Swedish/Relaxation Massage
Swedish massage is a gentle, relaxing, nervous system reset. It is suitable for most people, aiding with deep rest and recuperation.
