My name is Natalie. I enjoy supporting people on the path of fostering a deeper connection between body, mind, and spirit. Finding fulfilment in assisting during times of physical, emotional, and mental discomfort, through the practice of Shiatsu and other holistic body and facial massage therapies.

I am a Mum of three- four including my dog- and I live in Glasgow with my Husband and family. The experience of learning Shiatsu has been incredibly healing and transformative for myself and my family. I am guided by a desire to share the therapeutic skills, knowledge, and experiences I have acquired with those who seek out my support.

I am the Founder of The Health Collective in ‘The Old Schoolhouse’, known as Urban Office in Kinning Park, Glasgow. I have worked at this clinic space for almost three years and love welcoming people into this tranquil setting for bodywork treatments. You can find me here two or three days per week.

I also hold a weekly residency at FACESPACE studio- also at The Old Schoolhouse, where I offer specialist, facial massage treatments. An exciting addition to my offerings as my interest in aging with confidence, as naturally as possible deepens with personal experience. My work in Shiatsu and Traditional Chinese Medicine has supported me through adversity and various experiences and stages of life- as for getting older with as much grace and ease as possible- I am forever grateful for the traditional methods and celebrate the beauty of moving through all of the stages of life, expressing this via my Shiatsu Facial series.

My therapeutic career began at the Australian College of Massage in 2012 after the birth of my second child. I continued to deepen my knowledge and skills at The Glasgow School of Shiatsu in 2015, following the birth of my third child. Each educational experience having a profound impact on my approach to pregnancy and postpartum, personally and professionally.

I am now honoured to teach and share my knowledge and insights with the brilliant students at The Glasgow School of Shiatsu- qualifying as a Teacher with the Shiatsu Society UK in 2024, following enjoyable (and extensive) training with incredible Mentors.

My approach to my offerings is open-minded, and inclusive, ensuring that each person feels welcomed and at ease.

I would love to hear from you.
