Meet Anya Voakes
Thai-trained, with over 13 years’ experience
Anya loves helping people step away from busy days and feel looser, calmer and more comfortable in themselves. Her approach is friendly and intuitive, always guided by what feels right for you.
Before your session, Anya asks where you notice tension and whether you prefer a gentle, medium or strong pressure. She keeps listening during the treatment, adjusting her work so your massage never feels one-size-fits-all.

Small details make a real difference
Thoughtfully tailored
Pressure, pace and areas of focus are shaped around how you feel that day.

A private home studio, fresh linens, subtle aroma, warm towels and a peaceful atmosphere.
