Britta Wegener, Massage Therapist
“Britta joins her experiences and variety of methods beautifully to a holistic massage experience, with the aim of revitalising and healing on all levels. You will feel the benefit of a treatment, no matter, if you are physically or mentally overworked.”
Hello, I’m Britta. I am passionate about alternative and natural ways to maintain and re-introduce health and inner wellbeing. Through holistic therapeutic massage, I will help you find the natural harmonious balance in your body which can lead to a healthy, happy life. I aim to create a warm and safe space for you to recharge, rebalance and re-energise.
By taking a creative, intuitive approach in my treatments, I feel that the connection of human touch through massage can help us nurture our inner strength, emotional balance and physical well-being. I focus on your individual needs and concerns, treating mind, body and spirit. Whether you want to restore, rejuvenate or relax, my goal is to leave you feeling wonderfully restored and deeply relaxed.
My background is Kindergarten Teacher and Social Work, with the main focus on the support and the wellbeing of girls and women. Intrinsic to this work are themes like self-care, self-development and the relationship to ourselves and this is what brought me to consider bodywork and massage as a way of supporting others.
During my pregnancy with my daughter, I received regular massage treatments. It was a special space for relaxation, bonding and pain relief - and that’s when I knew that I wanted to offer this support to others. A year later, I qualified as a Swedish Massage Therapist.
I strive to live a healthy, joyful life. For the past 15 years, I have also been involved in a vegetarian health food restaurant in Edinburgh. In my spare time I enjoy regular walks with our dog, I love cycling and crafting, especially with wool, and I engage in regular meditation. I have completed a teaching course in guided meditation.
