Sarah Downing
The Intuitive Healing Specialist
My Approach to Healing
Not only do I perform relaxing massages, but I also assist clients in their rehabilitation. I have worked with individuals facing a wide range of conditions and goals, from teenage athletes to paraplegics to geriatric clients, as well as those who are simply overworked and in need of making regular relaxation a part of their lives.
Many of my clients have shared how massage has transformed their lives. They have come to me with chronic pain or injuries and, over the course of several sessions, were amazed and overjoyed to experience restored mobility and the relief of being completely pain-free.

My Story
I was inspired to become a licensed massage therapist after experiencing years of chronic illness and pain. Through my own healing journey, I realized the importance of a holistic approach to healthcare and felt moved to help others in the role of a “wounded healer.” Having seen first-hand the impact of stress-related illness, I know how vital massage and the nurturing power of touch are for alleviating it. I believe that heartfelt intention is a crucial part of healing, and my treatments incorporate my natural intuition, allowing me to customize each session to my client’s unique needs and wishes. I specialize in deep tissue, therapeutic and medical massage, sports massage, cupping, Thai massage (“assisted yoga,” an energizing clothed massage), ashiatsu, lomilomi, scar work, and I am also a Reiki Master Teacher.
As a 200-hour Certified Yoga Teacher and Yoga Trapeze® teacher, I am excited to bring my knowledge of the mind-body connection and healthy alignment into my bodywork services. Outside of the treatment room, I am a professional writer, poet, translator, singer, and ghost tour guide, and I have been blessed to live in three different countries: England, Germany, and the United States. This experience has opened my eyes and broadened my horizons.
