Sarah J. Downing

Sarah Downing was inspired to become a Licensed Massage Therapist (LMT) after experiencing years of chronic illness and pain. Through her own healing journey she realized the importance of a holistic approach to healthcare and was moved to help others in the role of a “wounded healer”. Having seen first-hand the impact of stress-related illness, Sarah knows how vital massage and the nurturing power of touch are for alleviating this. She believes that heartfelt intention is a huge part of healing and her treatments also incorporate her natural intuition, enabling her to customize them to her individual client’s wishes and needs. Sarah specializes in deep tissue, therapeutic/medical massage, sports massage, cupping, Thai massage (“assisted yoga”, an energizing clothed massage), ashiatsu, lomilomi, scar work and is a Reiki Master Teacher. As a 200-hour Certified Yoga Teacher and Yoga Trapeze® teacher, Sarah is excited to use her knowledge of the mind-body connection and healthy alignment to enhance her bodywork services. Outside of the treatment room, Sarah is a professional writer, poet, translator, singer and ghost tour guide and has been blessed to experience life in three different countries (England, Germany and the US), which has opened her eyes and broadened her horizons.
