 MAHALA GALE Dip. (NLSSM) MCThA BA(Hons)Dance
Mahala has been dancing since the age of two and holds a Performing Arts degree. She stumbled into the world of sports massage whilst trying to gain a greater understanding of the reasons she and her friends were experiencing injuries.
Mahala’s many years of dance has given her a unique understanding of the body; in particular how it moves, how we hold ourselves and how that might cause pain. She has a fascination with the anatomy and physiology of the body and appreciates the fact that every ‘body’ is different.
Whilst her emphasis during treatment is on relaxation and flow with slow strokes, Mahala also incorporates techniques of Swedish, Thai and Deep Tissue to create her Absolute Bliss Massage. The structure and pressure of these massages can be adapted to your needs, depending on how you’re feeling on the day.
Through her dance and sports massage training she has a wide knowledge of stretching techniques and exercises to give professional advice to clients avoid recurring stress or injury. Mahala has also done further specialised training in pregnancy massage and facial techniques including stress releasing therapy for well-being and improved appearance.
Mahala is a full member of the Complementary Therapists Association.
