About Pure Holistic Therapies
Specialist remedial, restorative and skin therapy with a personalised, whole-person approach.
Over 12 years of hands-on experience has shaped a treatment style that brings together clinical understanding, therapeutic touch and care that adapts to the person in front of me.
The hands behind Pure Holistic Therapies
I’m Kara.
My work has evolved from traditional massage and holistic therapy into a more specialist, integrated approach spanning remedial bodywork, nervous system support, lymphatic therapy and advanced facial care.
No two sessions are treated as identical. I work with how you’re presenting on the day, adapting the pace, pressure and techniques around what you need rather than following a fixed routine.
My approach
Personalised, responsive & whole-person care
I don’t work from a fixed routine. Each treatment is shaped around how you’re presenting on the day, your goals and what feels most appropriate for your body.
My approach brings together clinical understanding with therapeutic touch, adapting the pace, pressure and techniques as needed, whether the focus is pain and movement, lymphatic support, nervous system restoration or skin health.
The aim is simple: thoughtful treatments that feel specific to you.
Experience & specialist training
An approach shaped by continued training, hands-on practice and a deeper understanding of the concerns I see every day.
My training has evolved naturally around the things I see clients experiencing every day — and, in many cases, concerns I can personally relate to.
Experiences with migraines, anxiety and nervous system overwhelm, lymphatic concerns such as lipoedema, and the changes that come with ageing skin have all influenced the areas I’ve chosen to explore more deeply.
Bodywork & specialist support
My background spans remedial and sports massage, manual therapy and joint mobilisation, dry needling, cupping, manual lymphatic drainage and reflexology.
I’ve also continued to develop specialist approaches for pregnancy, menopause, nervous system support and clients with more sensitive or complex treatment needs.
Facial & skin therapy
Alongside bodywork, I’ve developed my facial and skin therapy practice through training in facial sculpting, lymphatic facial techniques, Buccal massage and restorative facial therapy.
My advanced skin training also includes microcurrent, dermaplaning, microneedling and professional Dermalux LED phototherapy.
Why I keep learning
I choose further training because I want to understand more, not simply add another treatment to a menu.
Continued learning allows me to offer thoughtful, personalised care informed by professional knowledge, hands-on experience and a genuine understanding of how these concerns can affect everyday life.
Continuing to evolve…
My training continues to develop alongside the direction of Pure, with further study in Ayurvedic facial therapy, Brazilian lymphatic techniques, Level 4 advanced skin therapy and Angelic Reiki.
Each area has been chosen to deepen the work I already offer, bringing together bodywork, lymphatic health, skin, restorative therapy and whole-person wellbeing.
