I booked my first workshop with Anna in January a time when no matter how I exercised, stretched and tried to recover, my body felt tight. My lower back, my neck and shoulders all carrying stress and tension. From that first workshop I knew this was for me and I began doing the online sessions with Anna twice weekly. My body has responded to the fascia release techniques better than I could have possibly hoped for. I also experienced jaw pain and tightness and working on my feet and legs helped in a way I could hardly believe. The best way I can describe it is feeling lighter in my body. The areas that troubled me still give bother at times but never to the same extent as before. Apart from the physical side I find myself better connected to my body mentally. I have a greater awareness of my body and how I am affected by things. All I can say is if you give deep fascia release a try you may find it is the best gift you have ever given yourself.

"I used to think of foam rolling as something you endured... all grimaces and gritted teeth... but Ania’s classes completely changed that for me! Her approach is so soothing and nurturing, and she creates such a calming and grounding space that transforms what could be a chore into an absolute pleasure. Any tension, whether in body or mind, just melts away. These classes are a little haven at the end of the week, something I genuinely look forward to. Forget everything you thought you knew about foam rolling, this feels entirely different! ❤" Mary

After only one session in a supportive group of women of all ages, my muscles felt like they could relax and release for the first time in months. Anna is incredibly knowledgeable, gentle in her approach and supportive in adapting various movements to meet individual needs. All week after our classes, I'm more aware of my body, my posture, what movements are beneficial and to be gentler with myself. And I look forward to getting back to class. She has different foam rolling equipment for different movements, that are all very easy to follow and so effective in getting deep into muscle tension. I've been nervously thinking about foam rolling for years and now feel confident in using them. There's no pain, only relief as my muscles sigh, and the class is fun with some deep sighs and laughter too. I can't recommend Anna and her massage and classes enough. Grace

I attended Anna's self-massage classes where she introduces you to a range of foam rollers that can be used in the home. I now roll my feet daily, following Anna's direction, which has really helped to reduce aches and pains not only in my arches, but also my calf muscles and hamstrings. I cannot recommend Anna at Ciao therapy enough! Lauren
