Notice · Nov 5th · I am working during lockdown 2.0! I'm following government and SMA guidelines on screening and hygiene protocols and have a treatment space within Trinity Practice and Wimborne Osteopathic clinic. Please contact me for more info - paula@bodymobile.com - thank you.
Bodymobile provides sports massage and soft tissue therapy with friendly and knowledgeable support for all.
The amazing movement of the body and a love of anatomy has inspired me to study many methods of massage and soft tissue therapies and develop a specific approach to treatment based on reducing tension and building better movement patterns to achieve the best performance for each client.
I use techniques from Sports massage, Thai yoga massage and myofascial techniques including Barral Institute visceral and neuro-meningeal manipulation to ease the body into unwinding tensions stuck in the fascia that connecting everything. As an avid Pilates follower, I encourage clients to keep the benefits of treatment by moving and provide exercises as part of treatment programmes where needed.
I have a special interest in hypermobility, digestive dysfunctions, jaw dysfunctions like TMJ, woman’s health, whiplash and scar tissue rehabilitation.
Sports massage for athletes getting ready for a specific race or game is a great honour and passion whatever the level. I have worked with many types of sports person from first time marathon runners to competitive triathletes to Premiership football players. In 2012 I worked at the Paralympic training camp with teams from Morocco, Tunisia, Angola, Ivory Coast and in 2014 with world best diving teams at the Glasgow Commonwealth Games.
Sharing knowledge and experience is vital for my client focused approach. I am experienced in working with and collaborating with other modalities like osteopaths, physios, dentists and functional GPs, acupuncturists and nutritionists to create the best treatment plan for a client.
Book directly with me or book online via the venue websites. I have clinics in Shaftesbury and Wimborne in Dorset. I also consult in London in Bounds Green.
If you have any questions or would like to speak to me before an appointment, please give me a call on 07957 224 633

All the therapies I practice can improve your well being, but for a pamper session try Swedish deep tissue massage with blended aromatherapy oils. I use premixed aromatherapy oils which can calm, energise and uplift you through their various properties.
Eat something light before a treatment, drink a glass of water after a treatment and rest for at least a half hour for best results.

It's a special time and with so many changes taking place in your body and your emotions, taking care of yourself should be the number one thing to do on your list.
