Charis Hobley

SCMT Dip., MTI reg., CNHC reg.

I trained with Sheffield Centre for Massage Training and I’m fully qualified in Holistic Massage with Anatomy, Physiology and Pathology. I’m a registered member of the Massage Training Institute (reg no. 4629) and the Complementary and Natural Healthcare Council (reg no. CNHC08828), which exist to drive up standards within our profession.

I discovered the benefits of massage as a gymnast, and my practice is informed by a solid understanding of how our bodies work and how we move. I have a strong background in meditation, which offers wisdom into the mind-body connection, and an ability to be present and work intuitively with you. I have done additional training in Deep Tissue Massage, including: assessing postural imbalances, myofascial and soft tissue release, trigger point work (muscle knots) and friction techniques.

I love giving massage, and I’m endlessly inspired by the deeply relaxing and healing power of touch. I focus on empowering you to know your own body, know what feels right, speak up about what you want and know how to care for your body in between treatment sessions. Clear communication and consent are foundation stones of my practice. I’ll work with you to ensure you’re as comfortable as can be, and that you leave the session feeling relaxed, fulfilled, and grounded within your own body.
