Remedial massage, manual therapy and mindful movement, shaped by many years of practice. This is the foundation of every session at Causeway Treatments in Castlerock, and on home visits across the Coleraine area.
"Only those who listen closely can begin to sense who is really in front of them."
— Lady Susan
This principle has guided my work since the early 2000s. My path began in Germany, where I practised Interactive Medicine, a field founded by my mother, Lady Susan. It treats a person as a living, responsive system: one that answers to precise impulses, rather than being passively managed. At the Centre for Interactive Medicine, we combined deep medical knowledge with naturopathy and psychology.
Today, at Castle Anam Cara in Castlerock, where that training meets my Irish roots, I bring the same depth to a genuinely restorative experience. As a massage therapist specialised in manual therapy, my goal is to bridge the gap between structural alignment and deep physical relief.
Your body knows how to move freely and release tension — chronic stress and pain simply obscure that knowledge. My work does not force change from the outside. It follows a core principle: before anything can be released, something must first be supported. I stabilise before I let go — working from your body's natural centre outward, so that every shift is held, not lost.
Gentle movement is never exercise. It is a reminder. A gentle prompt for your body's own intelligence to reawaken — to recall a freer, more natural way of moving that was always there.
The subtle presence of bespoke herbal oils completes the picture — grounding the session through scent as the body settles into stillness.
Techniques like Clinical Reflexology and Eastern Acupressure act as a clear catalyst for the nervous system, offering a specialised approach to pain relief and deep relaxation.
Whether through touch, movement, or silence, each session is shaped by what I observe — not just what is said, but how the body speaks.
While I work with specific manual impulses, words can simply rest. You observe how the tension begins to fade, making space for a profound sense of ease. Your system is quietly invited to re-orient and realign, finding a new, healthier balance from within.
Located within the peaceful atmosphere of Castle Anam Cara and kindly supported by Lady Susan’s Challenges, the environment itself becomes part of the process. The sweeping views of the dunes and the Atlantic provide a natural backdrop for your recovery, allowing your system to settle completely while we work together to reactivate your inner resources.
