I’m Nina | Physiotherapist & Somatic Bodyworker - My Foundation: The Science of Movement and the Art of Presence

My work is rooted in the belief that true recovery happens when we treat the body as a whole, interconnected system. As a Physiotherapist, I have a deep clinical understanding of how the body moves, but my passion lies in the "somatic" side of healing—listening to the wisdom the body holds beyond just the physical symptoms. With my Japanese heritage influencing my practice, I prioritize simplicity, harmony, and a deep sense of presence in every session.

I view the body through the lens of the fascial and nervous systems. When these systems are in alignment, the body can finally drop its "armour" and return to a state of natural balance. I offer two distinct paths to recovery:

• Chikara (Sports Massage): A focused, therapeutic approach designed to release deep-seated tension, enhance mobility, and support your performance or injury recovery.
• Karada (Integrated Bodywork): A holistic journey that blends passive stretching, breath facilitation, and intuitive touch. This is designed for those looking to reconnect with their bodies, settle their nervous system, and find a deep sense of internal regulation.

• Registered Physiotherapist
• Bachelor of Health Science: Physiotherapy

I create a space where you feel safe, seen, and supported. Whether we are working on a specific injury or a general sense of depletion, my goal is to help your body soften, recalibrate, and return to its natural state of ease.
