About bluberri
This space is more than a service; it is a lifeline of stillness in a world that rarely stops (or even slows down). Before we begin, take a breath and settle in. I believe every story has a purpose, and mine was born from walking through the fires of trauma and illness. If my words can help you feel less alone in your own challenge, then every step of my journey has found its meaning.
Are you sitting comfortably? Perhaps with a cup of warm herbal tea in hand?
I believe that every one of us has a story to tell, and I have felt a deep, steady pull to share mine. My hope is simple: if my words can help just one person feel they can navigate a challenge in their own life, then I have done my work.
Since a young age, I have walked through many fires - mentally, physically, and emotionally. From the shadows of anorexia and the gruelling path of IVF to the weight of mental, physical, sexual, and financial abuse. At thirty-four, my body spoke through a diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis. At thirty-eight, I walked away from a seventeen-year abusive marriage with nothing but my resilience. Then, at forty-eight, came the life-altering news of being diagnosed with two completely different breast cancers that had gone into my lymph, which in turn lead to the discovery that I am a BRCA2 carrier.
Looking back, I truly believe that chronic stress was the quietest, yet largest factor in my journey with illness. It is why I am so passionate about the space I have created here - because I know, intimately, the cost of not slowing down.
A focus on Growth
Nurtured Not Forced
Just as nature isn’t rushed, I believe our healing happens best when we move at our own pace. Here at Bluberri we provide a calm, steady presence so your nervous system feels safe enough to soften.
The Ritual of Blooming
We focus on rituals that nourish you from the inside out, the right touch, the right breath, and the right ingredients to help your skin and spirit flourish.
Rooted Community
In our Bluberri club, you are never growing alone. Whether we are walking together on a monthly walk or connecting online, you are part of a community that understands that we are all, in our own way, a work in progress.
Our intention isn’t just to provide a service.
It’s to offer a lifeline of stillness.
I am here because I know what it’s like when the outside world demands you to keep going, even when your body and soul are asking you to stop. For most of my life, like many of us, I moved at lightning speed like some kind of superhero. I now look back and wonder just how I did it all. But life had a way of eventually bringing me to a full stop. Those years so far have taught me that wellness isn’t a luxury we fit into the gaps of a busy life, it is the very ground we stand on.
Bluberri was created because I wanted to build sanctuary of stillness, a place that honours the resilience it takes to grow through difficult seasons. My intention is simple: to provide a safe space where you can finally let go of the pressure to perform, de-stress your nervous system, and rediscover your glow at a pace that feels natural. I’m not here to fix you; I’m here to provide the soil and the space for you to shine.
The Foundation: Three Decades of Expertise
A Legacy of Excellence
With over 30 years of experience in the global wellness industry, my journey has been defined by a commitment to the highest standards of care. Before founding the sanctuary at Bluberri, I honed my craft working with some of the world’s most prestigious names in beauty and wellness, including Estée Lauder. This international perspective allows me to blend world-class technique with the intimate, focused attention of a private studio.

Fibromyalgia Massage: Calming the nervous system through intuitive, low-impact touch.
Menopause Massage: Balancing the internal fire and restoring equilibrium during transition.
Structural & Sports Massage: Targeted recovery for the physical demands of life.

A Note from the Founder
After three decades in the upper echelons of the wellness world, I’ve learned that the most profound transformations don’t happen in the busiest rooms, but in the quietest ones. My time with brands like Elemis, Clinique and Estée Lauder taught me the precision of the craft. However my journey has taught me the importance of stillness.
I created this sanctuary to be a lifeline. Here, I combine every ounce of my clinical expertise with genuine, family-rooted care. Whether we are navigating a complex recovery or simply seeking a moment to breathe, my hands and my heart are fully committed to your resilience. You aren't just a client on a schedule; you are part of a shared journey toward finding your own 'steady glow.'
