Clare Baker Massage

I’m Clare Baker, a deep tissue and relaxation massage therapist in Brighton & Hove

How are you feeling today? What does your body need?

 

Welcome, it's good to have you here

Oh our wonderful, complicated bodies. Trying to hang on in there in this increasingly frantic world of ours.

Tiredness, overwhelm, discomfort, aches and pains, sleeplessness, the list can go on can’t it.

The various ways in which your body can find itself struggling and start to try to get your attention.

I know. I understand. 

So maybe it is now time. To carve out abit of space for yourself.


Time in which you get to be rather than do.


Time in which you can explore what you might need to feel better.


Or just to switch off enough that you can start to reconnect with yourself.

Welcome. I can help support your body with time and space. Calming and soothing away discomfort and stress.

Relaxation massage

Life can be full-on. This affects us physically and emotionally. I create a space for you to switch off. A relaxation treatment provides a calming, soothing place to let your body and mind slow down and find some peace.

Deep tissue massage

Pain and discomfort can materialise for all manner of reasons. Tenderness, tightness, niggles creep in or shout louder when they need some help. I work with your body deeply, though always within your comfort zone, to ease the discomfort you are feeling and help you move more freely

Hi, I’m Clare

I’ve worked as a massage therapist for over 15 years.

In those years, I have had the chance to explore many aspects of bodywork, both through professional development and the lived experience of my own body. My journey has covered much ground and taken many forms. It has now brought me full circle. Back to where I started.

I work holistically. Each treatment is put together for the individual that you are.

No one size fits all.

No specific way to do things. 

Just you and me.

And a depth of knowledge to meet your needs. 

MORE ABOUT ME

How do you know if I am the right therapist for you?

  • Although my work can be deep, that depth can and will vary from person to person. It’s so important that’s a depth that works for you.

  • My pace of treatment tends to be on the slower side. I take my time to sink into your body and give it time to respond.

  • I don’t feel there is a one size fits all approach to bodywork. Different things work for differnt people. This is reflected in how we work together. Finding what is right for you.
Welcome to Clare Baker Massage
  • Chronic pain. Discomfort. Niggles. Stress. Anxiety. Life.  The never ending list of things that can hold us back from fully living. My restorative treatments meet you where you are at.

  • I work with acute pain that may be as a result of longer term issues. A flare up of something that you have had before.

  • I don’t work with acute injury. However I can support you with your road to recovery alongside involvement from other practitioners should they feel that massage would help.

One of those days Recently I have spent hours on One of those days
Recently I have spent hours on the website. Today I started doing more and what was an initial enjoyment of the creativity quickly descended into despondency as the SEO rating for the page I was building was crap. 
After months of learning about SEO. 
And the formatting wouldn't work despite having done so in all previous attempts.
My visibility has been non-existent recently because ... Well I'm not wholly sure really, just that it hasn't felt like I want to show up. 
And massage is so quiet I could cry. In fact, I did. As the SEO score showed itself and Brian tried to support the subsequent implosion. 
Out it all came. 
But it's just a day hey. Tomorrow will bring a clean slate. It might not be any different but equally it might be. There is always that hope.
So with nothing much to say but a desire to be here today, here is a small corner of the treatment room.
Oh and if you are new here, although massage is quiet, I am good at it 😉
Joy Today came courtesy of it being warm enough t Joy
Today came courtesy of it being warm enough this morning to sit in the garden for my first coffee of the day (so funny, I'm feeling the pull here to let you know that that was 4hrs ago just in case you think I've only just got up. Yawn to toxic capitalism!!).
Accompanied by the robin using his voice to make his wonderful presence known.
Hope there is a touch (or more) of joy in your day.

Yesterday​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
I finally had some branding photos done. After 18 years (almost to the day) since I qualified as a therapist. ​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
It feels like all sorts of everything. A culmination of stuff!​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
But for today, I am feeling chuffed. And thankful that @victorialugtonphotography said yes to working with me 🙏♥️. The fact that within a few minutes we were chatting hyper-sensitivity, introversion and eventually patriarchy was an added bonus. The universe working its magic ​​​​​​​​

Unfurl That word has popped up at least three tim Unfurl
That word has popped up at least three times this week - I'm taking that as a signal, something to keep in mind
I had pottered down the road last week to see if the trees had come into bloom yet, but they hadn't. Clearly they've since got the unfurl memo too. Today they are heavy with their beautiful abundance
The bees were feasting on this one
And as I typed this I am reminded that I read recently that @conservatives have just partially lifted the ban on neonicotinoids. This is such a retrograde step in a time where we should and could be steamrollering our way to protecting precious nature (see my stories for ways you can help)
So off at a complete tangent, sorry. Enjoy the beauty that spring is bringing to our doors. Delight in how freely mother nature gives. And do all that you can to protect our precious bees. They are the linchpins of our beautiful, fragile world
