About Me

My name is Annabel and I am a level 3 qualified Massage Therapist. I am passionate about my work and enjoy getting to know my clients and creating a space where they can feel comfortable, cared for and able to fully switch off. 

In my spare time, I love spending time by the water which made Bell by the Water a natural choice for my business name. I also enjoy the outdoors generally, particularly hiking and camping, so I understand the aches and pains that can come with an active lifestyle! This perspective shapes my approach, allowing me to offer treatments that are both relaxing and effective.

Inspired by the natural rhythm of the sea, my approach combines therapeutic techniques with intuitive, responsive pressure, allowing treatments to be adapted to your body’s individual needs on the day.

Whether you are experiencing tension from the effects of a busy lifestyle and in need of time to rest and reset, or you have a specific area of pain and muscle soreness you would like me to address, my sessions are designed to target your needs, support your overall well-being and create a calm and restorative experience.

Taking time to slow down and reconnect with ourselves can have a meaningful impact on our ongoing physical and mental well-being. For me, massage isn’t always a one-off treatment — I enjoy working with my clients regularly to build an ongoing treatment plan, becoming a supportive part of their continuing self-care. 

Consciously slowing down and finding time to relax on a regular basis, helps to regulate the nervous system, reduce tension, and manage the effects of everyday stress, creating a natural rhythm that helps you feel your best.
