My Therapy
Over the past 20 years I have slowly been crafting my own form of healing. It may have started as massage, but today it is a much more complex scientific art form.
The Therapy
Therapy with Elisa creates balance, harmony and fluidity in the biomechanics of the body. By releasing the soft tissue (muscles, tendons, fascia and skin), more space is created in the joints. This takes the body towards a more natural posture: rediscovering harmony on a physical, emotional and energetic level.
Influences
Its foundations are in reiki, oriental massage, acupressure and biomechanics. With influences from osteopathy, physiotherapy, Rolfing, yoga, dance and much more, it takes into account the effects of gravity and life experiences/emotions on our structure.
How this therapy came to be...
I began healing in 2003, over time, certain life experiences and injuries, deepened my understanding and perception of the human being. These were the effects of emotional trauma, hypermobility and respiratory allergies.
The Therapy
Each patient and each therapy is different, accommodating the needs of each moment. From very subtle movements to deep tissue, the body and being are guided towards a new space.

The Concept
"...creating space within the weave of the bodies soft tissue, gives space for the joints to move freely. This allows the lungs to have space to expand. And consequently more space to be able to process emotions and life experiences."
"The more body awareness we have, the more we can help ourselves."
"Each treatment is a communication with the person's body, guiding it to a more comfortable position."

“Elisa is by far my favourite masseuse. I see her once a month and when I don’t I have pain. She is gentle and firm all at the same time and can feel exactly where my body needs work. She is also incredibly lovely and easy to talk to. I always look forward to my appointments with her. My partner enjoys treatments from Aldo. We have both had ceremony with them. If you want the real deal and to be healed this space is worth the trip.”
Audrey, 2024
“I so look forward to Elisa’s massages, she has incredible healing hands, is so knowledgeable as to the workings of the body and helps me with my painful hip. She is very caring and I feel like I am in safe hands… I have recommended her to many of my friends.”
