What My Clients Say
“I would recommend Elaine after going for pregnancy massage treatments.
I never had massage before and it was amazing.
Elaine worked on me and we talked so much during the treatment and I felt when I was leaving that I was so refreshed and so relaxed “
Monica
“I went to Elaine when I was pregnant with my first baby.
I was 22 weeks pregnant when I went for the first pre-natal massage. I had pain in my right hip and Elaine worked on it and I felt so much better. She made me feel so relaxed and explained everything to me.
I returned to her for more treatments as it really made me feel so relaxed about the birth and I wasn’t as anxious after having my baby.“
Annonymous
“I recently went to Elaine for treatment as I had an injury to my quads.
I found Elaine’s Gift of Touch on Facebook. Would highly recommend her.
She does not rush, listens and explains, and loves to get feedback on what worked or didn’t work so she can try different techniques to improve mobility and flexibility.
After the second treatment I began to feel better and by session 5 I could return to football while doing exercises and stretches “

“I brought my baby girl to Elaine’s Baby Massage. All I can say is WOW. It was the most relaxing, calm, caring and loving environment I could have ever wished for. The room was set up beautifully and with such warmth and welcome.
Elaine is very kind, caring and welcoming and made us mammies feel so at ease. The babies were so relaxed after it and my little lady had the biggest sleep. I continued doing it with my daughter and it always made her very relaxed and calm.
Would highly recommend this programme to any mother and baby. It is amazing. Thanks Elaine.”
