Sally M says: An excellent class, Ania the teacher is kind, skillful, friendly and very encouraging, A fabulous way to start a Thursday evening and the end of the week. Excellent for all levels of Yoga. (January 2024)
William P says: I have been seeing Ania regularly for over 5 years and can thoroughly recommend her Lomi Lomi massage. She is clearly an experienced, able and professional practitioner and her treatments are exceptionally good value for money. (January 2024)
Craig C says: Ania is a great yoga teacher. I was completely new to Yoga when I started wth Blossom Therapies. I have now being doing Yoga for 6 months, the difference in my flexability and mental state is amazing. Ania teaches yoga in a way that supports you, but also makes you want to challenge yourself to improve. Defo recommend! (January 2024)
David C says: Ania is a lovely lady that really makes you feel welcome. I booked for a clinical massage to help with strained muscles. She knows exactly where to treat and I left with a lot less painful body and very relaxed. I highly recommend her as one of the best massage therapists around. (January 2024)
Isa M says: After graduation I started to work full time as a translator in an American company and a couple of years later I was over-stressed, my heart used to go off rhythm pounding like crazy and I experienced the fear of death for the first time in my life...Luckily, around that time Ania introduced me into yoga as she was on a deep yoga journey in India...which will remain in my heart as one of the most beautiful experiences...Ania initiated me into asanas, pranayamas and meditation both theoretically and practically so that I could continue on my own as I moved to the Middle East. Practising breathing techniques helped me calm down my heart, meditation helped me get over my fear of death, and asanas were keeping my body fit. But to my surprise that was just the beginning of my yoga journey...Yoga is the most holistic way to cure and keep the body & mind healthy, as well as to nurture the soul. Once we develop a deep practice, it’ll stay with us no matter the circumstances. It takes us to the Heart of the Universe and beyond. (September 2021)
Amber F says: I love Ania's yoga classes. Great for the body and mind and connecting the two. She always takes care to make adaptations for those that need it. I would definitely recommend. (November 2019)
Tracey M says: Whilst researching for alternative therapies for gastric reflux, I found that craniosacral therapy was recommended for this condition. It is a very gentle and non invasive therapy that can aid many conditions including neck pain from which I also suffer persistently. Both of these conditions were having a major impact on my daily life. Following a few sessions of craniosacral therapy with Ania, my gastric reflux is so minimal that it is easily managed by diet alone and my neck pain is no longer evident. I would wholeheartedly recommend this type of therapy as its many benefits can promote an holistic state of wellbeing and it has definitely given me back a happy daily life. (May 2018)
Beata M says: I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis 3 years ago, and since that time I have had the sensation of tension inside my neck. Doctors have shrugged and said: "Thyroid problems come with different symptoms", but they don’t have any idea how to stop it. Whilst the hormone balance in my body is under control with hormone supplementation (the only treatment traditional medicine can offer) the feeling doesn’t disappear. During the session of Craniosacral Therapy with Ania (the first in my life!) at one point I felt as if something inside became opened. I even heard a sound of "opening". After it, there was just a feeling of deep relaxation inside my neck. I have to say that besides this effect, it was the most gentle, soothing and relaxing therapy I have ever had. Thank you Ania! Keep it up! I hope all your patients are as thankful as I am. (September 2015)
David A says: Ania works with a fine sensitivity and intuition, producing an extraordinary sensation of being held, embraced, cared for, almost as if, with the long strokes of her massage technique, you are being massaged by the sea, gently rolled around in the shallows. For me, it had the strange effect of releasing my spirit, so that while she worked on my body, relaxing it, so my mind quietened almost to sleep, but never quite - mind and spirit as it were combed out to tranquillity. Ania is a skilled, deeply intuitive therapist, and highly professional. I am so grateful to whatever it is that governs these things that our paths crossed. I should have a hard job to recommend her highly enough, especially to anyone who, for whatever reasons, finds themselves oppressed by those cruelties of life that we all at times must suffer. (July 2015)
Laura R says: I have regular massages with some great therapists around Norfolk. Today I fancied something a bit different and opted for chavutti, with a therapist I had never met before- What an amazing massage, I felt relaxed and at ease with Ania, the atmosphere in the room was calming. This massage was deep, powerful, yet gentle and flowing. Thoroughly recommended to anyone who needs to switch off and have a good stretch out. Thankyou Ania (June 2015)
Vernon E says: Before my appointment if I wanted to stand up it involved a 30 second meeting between brain,calves,knees,thighs and ankles and a lot of luck, now 48 hours later everybody is in agreement and its effortless. (May 2015)
David D says: I am do not normally bother with writing reviews, but I felt the need too. I needed a deep tissue massage, and I was not disappointed. Ania was so controlled with the amount of pressure and the positioning of her feet. It was a experience that I will not forget. Thank you Ania (April 2015)
Aung Myat W says: I love massages in general and I usually try different massages once a week at least. So , I know what I am talking about. Tried 90 mins lomi lomi massage. She is very skilled , professional and pretty too :). I love the environment. Candle lights and music put you in ease. She seems to know yoga too. i felt extremely light and energetic after the massage. Will be visiting next week for sure. P.S. The ending head massage and ear massages were terrific. (April 2015)
Jeremy W says: Having had a few massages before I have to say that the 90 minute Lomi lomi massage with Ania was by far the most relaxing to date. A great experience I will be booking again. (March 2015)
Ben K says: thanks Ania I felt great afterwards........ the massage was very deep especially on the legs and attention was paid to any tightness in my back I could feel the knots being ironed out well done I'd recomend to anyone (March 2015)
Ian S says: I have had several massages before, and as a health professional myself I am looking for a masseuse who knows what they are doing. My massage with Blossom Therapies was both relaxing and invigorating. Ania clearly knows her stuff, and I have full confidence in recommending her for patients and friends with muscle aches and pains, as well as for the relaxation benefits of Ania’s massage. (February 2015)
James M says: I have massages often and thought I would give Lomi lomi a try after hearing good things from friends. The premise are very nice. The massage room is spacious and private. The massage itself was brilliant, Ania is obviously very experienced. The massage makes you feel totally relaxed and I would recommend to anyone. Many thanks (February 2015)
Chris K says: Having experienced several types of massage in the past I was very much looking forward to having my first Chavutti Thirumal massage, now I'm looking forward to meeting Ania again for a second. The massage although being firm pressure was wonderful and relaxing with long, flowing strokes as well as individual pressure points, I could feel knots being untied whilst I lay there. A welcome shower was offered afterwards. The studio was beautifully decorated and roomy, that it's self made the massage more relaxing. Ania is a very friendly young lady, has excellent knowledge of the body and knows what she is doing. (January 2015)
Valerie S says: My very 1st Lomi Lomi massage I would describe it as a wonderful experience. Ania made me feel totally at ease. I felt myself drift into a lovely tranquil and very safe place. The therapy room was warm with candles and music. I left there feeling completely de-stressed mentally and no longer felt any tension in my body physically. Thankyou Ania. (January 2015)
John H says: It was my first time too! Thank you Ania for putting me at ease. The longs massage strokes were amazing, given that I am well over 6 foot tall! For the first few hours after the massage I was on cloud 9.. (December 2014)
Marian B says: My first lomi lomi massage that I’ve just got from Ania really was magical. Ania is very friendly and clearly an expert at this type of massage…I felt like the massage was not just about massaging my body/muscles, but I also felt completely re-energized. Ania has boosted my energy levels and more importantly I felt like a happier person both during and after the session. The massage (for me) was also a spiritual experience. So, next time I feel like I need a massage, I won’t look for a massage therapist, but will go straight back to Ania. Thank you Ania for amazing experience! (October 2014)
Paul C says: The welcome was friendly and courteous and the facilities very good with a separate shower room. Ania explained everything then started her work and I was soon drifting away. I entered a dream like state with the flowing motion of Ania's hands creating the impression of waves gently rolling over my body. With previous massages I've felt it was either my muscles or my mind that was being worked on but Ania managed to achieve both at the same time. Highly recommended. (September 2014)
William G says: My first visit to Ania and I will definitely be booking again! I've had the odd massage here and there before but this was the most relaxing by far - by half way through I think I was barely awake! Would definitely recommend. (July 2014)
Graham S says: If you get bored with long reviews, here's the summary: Ania is wonderful and the experience is sublime. Ok if you are still reading, I have a lot of experience of massages the various techniques, belief systems, philosophies, etc. I don't want to make out that massage/relaxation is somehow like wine buffery - a massage either works for you or it doesn't. Ania most definitely makes it all work. This was my first visit to Ania and my second of Lomi Lomi. I was not disappointed. Like most people i was initially a little tense but as time progressed (or my case time evaporated) i drifted into that state where you are still awake (barely) but your mind wanders everywhere. It comes with trust i think. As this was the first visit (I immediately booked a second) i do recognise I'm on a journey. But whats so great about finding someone like Ania is that I know that prior to my next appointment, I will start to feel the benefit and relaxation of her therapy even before I arrive. Can't ask for more than that. Thanks Ania. (July 2014)
Megan L says: I've never had Lomi Lomi before but it was a wonderful massage! There was just the right amount of pressure applied and it unraveled all the knots of tension I didn't know I was carrying.A refreshing change and I will certainly be going back. I've spent the afternoon feeling simultaneously both relaxed and energised. (July 2014)
Melanie C says: I have only had two styles of massage before and I was apprehensive to trial something new, but I'm pleased that I did. Having Ania perform Lomi Lomi is the best massage I have ever received by far. The way Ania dances around combined with the relaxing atmosphere she perfectly creates along with the massage itself made me feel like I was floating on the ocean. On leaving I felt completely relaxed and care-free. I would absolutely recommend this experience to anyone and I will certainly return. (June 2014)
Steve A says: Having been fortunate to have experienced first hand the ultimate Lomi Lomi treatment at Aunty Angeline’s homestead, Kupuna, Hawaii, I was unsure whether any other would ever live up to the memory. I am pleased to testify that Ania has all the spiritual elegance and skill of a Kupuna. I would highly recommend this treatment to anyone seeking the ultimate in relaxation. Mahalo nui loa. (June 2014)
Andrew H says: This was my first experience of the Lomi Lomi technique but it definitely won't be my last. It was utterly relaxing and I'm sure I almost fell asleep on a couple of occasions. Not only is it a very pleasurable experience, it's a great way to distress and get rid of your excess tension and those little knots and niggles. Ania is very professional and really knows her way around the human body. (June 2014)
Pamela R says: I'd never had a Lomi Lomi massage before so didn't really know what to expect. Ania asked all the right questions and explained everything I needed to know, with confidence, which instantly put me at ease. The massage itself was such a relaxing experience and the flowing movements Ania made which could only be described as a dance took my mind off to a hawaiian beach and paradise! Not only that but the stiffness in my shoulder and neck from an old injury was eased. I can only recommend you give it a go. I will definitely be going again! (June 2014)
