Kind words
A ninety minute massage with Sofia is a thoroughly relaxing and at the same time refreshing session that relieves stress and tension from head to toe. With a variety of very comfortable and effective approaches she releases tight muscles as well as stretching your joints, then performs smooth sweeping techniques over well oiled regions of your back. You are left with a definite overall feeling of relaxation and renewal.
Her Tea and Stillness session is a calming and uplifting experience of an authentic tea ceremony in which you imbibe the finest Chinese teas in a soothing and meditative atmosphere that can allow you to gently release both physical and emotional tensions in a safely supported setting.
Phillip Corbett (Retired Chiropractor and Teacher), Warburton 2026
I highly recommend Sofia. The intuitive massage is life changing. I was exhausted and very stiff and sore. Not only did Sofia release the tension and stress in my body. But also the grief and loss from losing my son. I actually left the first time feeling light and with joy in my heart. I was so exhausted that my cup was completely empty. But thanks to Sofia. I am learning to receive. I am relaxed and my body has no stiffness or aches. I’m more flexible. I am running again and doing all the things I love to do. My husband thanked me after making his appointment. Sofia is a blessing and definitely gifted.

Sofia is a sensitive and intuitive teacher. She holds a wonderful safe and restorative space, which allows for release of physical and emotional tension and renewed energy and balance to my body and spirit. Her practice style allows for all levels, body types and ages to participate to their own level and to experience her class without pain or embarrassment and to have access to this wonderful practice.
