About Jo
Hi there, I'm Jo, Founder of Massage and Me.
Welcome to my world of calm…
I set up Massage and Me in 2016, after working the busy 9-5 (or rather 8-7) London commuter life for 10 years. Whilst I loved my job working in events, it had started to take its toll both physically and mentally.
The 'me' in Massage and Me is all about YOU! I'm here to help you, whether it's 20 minutes or 1 hour. I look forward to sharing my warm, cosy and safe space with you. I’ll hold that space for you during your appointment and make sure you are the focus of my time.
To feel the full benefits of massage and reflexology therapy, you don't have to book in for a treatment every day, nor do you have to do three hours of yoga every morning or drink a litre of carrot juice for breakfast.

Don't get me wrong, those things might help! However, I'm not going to preach to you and I'm never going to tell you that you have to change your life. I can simply offer some tips, if you would like. Recognising that you want to take a little slot out of your hectic day to enjoy a massage or reflexology treatment is a great sign.
I'm a big fan of quiet time, so am great at giving you the space you need to switch off and have some time to yourself. I know how rare it is. Hopefully, as you switch off and let me take care of releasing your tension, we can make the most of this time in my treatment room for your wellbeing.
See you soon wonderful humans…
