#Elaurian Massage And Healing

[elaurianwellness]

Hi, I'm Rachel, lengthy intro ahead!

I am a late diagnosed autistic, queer woman, massive geek, dog lover (animal lover generally!), crafter, gardener, witchy souled, mental health warrior. I live in Musselburgh with my wife and two sweet, mildly hectic staffies.

I studied Massage at Edinburgh College 2021/22, it was hard but worth it! I'm currently doing a certificate in Meditation too and hope to continue to add to my skills and knowledge of Holistic wellbeing practices so I can work towards my goal of helping in some small way towards Neuroqueering Wellness.

One of my big reasons for trying to get into this line of work is to bring wellness therapies to neurodivergent folks like me through the lens of what makes us amazing, inspired, passionate, and unique. Working with clients, and hopefully one day small groups, to develop ways of finding well being that work for us.

Wellness therapies based on your passions and interests.....

Do you have a love for crustaceans? I'll help you develop meditations centred round those fabulous creatures.

You adore Avatar: The Last Airbender? How about a series of affirmations like "Uncle Iroh would be proud of me."?

I really want to help folk find some joy, or at least some peace and self acceptance, in the neurodivergent experience. Celebrating our passions is one way to do this. I thought another might be through joyful movement, alone or in small groups where we listen to music and just move, an awesome way to work on interoception and to find stims.

I want to help create spaces where we can celebrate ourselves authentically and with joy. Where we can work together to find coping mechanisms, life tips, health and wellness approaches that work for us. Some of the general well being advice out there definitely can apply to everyone but a lot of it simply doesn't work for neurodivergent folk. And much of the advice online is targeted towards kids and their caregivers. I'd like to work with other ND adults to create well being advice that works for us.

Even the name of my business embraces this spirit of honouring and accepting all the aspects of myself and others. Let's just say I'm a big Star Trek fan, and you can do the googling.....but it's also a hint towards my approach.....

I PROMISE TO REALLY TRY TO LISTEN, TO REALLY TRY TO HEAR YOU.

If you have a specific condition or situation in life that impacts you I will do all I can to educate myself about it prior to first consultation so you don't need to waste time going over the basics and we can focus on how it affects you in particular.

Then, we can work together to develop coping strategies, massage treatments, meditations, ways to eat better, healthier routines, whatever it is YOU need.

I hope to provide massage and wellness therapies to anyone who needs my services. I want to be accessible to as many folk as possible. If you have worries or questions about accessibility/pricing, please drop me a message. My goal is to provide completely tailored treatments and services based on your needs.

I'm also on FB, Insta, YouTube and Pinterest.

Please don't hesitate to get in touch!
