My name is Audri, I live in Burford with my husband and my two teenagers. I am a Clinical Massage therapist and Pilates Studio owner located at Oxleaxe Farm in Filkins.
After a severe episode of spasmodic lower-back pain. I had a demanding role in IT and was on the career ladder ascent when two incidents happened to close colleagues with life-changing consequences to them. It grabbed my attention about where I was heading. I set forth a path to be of service to others.
My journey began when I enrolled on the Comprehensive Polestar Pilates in London. My curiosity led me to seek to understand the issue(s) in the body I aimed to solve with an exercise. Anatomy Trains introduced me to Tensegrity and Myofascial lines, combining tension and stability to any physical structure to create balance. It changed the lens through which I see the body and I am interested in fascial manual work and nourishment through movement. I trained with the British Wheel of Yoga, Anatomy Trains in Movement and Fascia Movement®.
During lockdown, I trained in Clinical and Sports massage (JING) expanding on chronic musculoskeletal pain conditions. Trigger Points often mimic common pain conditions such as Frozen Shoulder, Plantar fasciitis, Sciatica, and tendinopathies. The research in my final year developed my confidence to treat complex conditions when assessing headaches and jaw pain (TMJ).
Fascial work can be used for scars to break up adhesions and lessen tension. I work closely with those affected by cancer treatment and rehabilitation. Through hands-on massage or nourishing movement, I offer advice to address a specific outcome. I believe in sharing knowledge generously and teaching to self-treat so it can be practised safely and independently.
