Lynnea Shrief
Koala Therapies was founded two years ago after Lynnea completed the training needed to offer a variety of holistic therapies to the general public. Complementary therapies have been the roots of Lynnea's studies and research since she moved to England from America 6 years ago. She was very keen on learning more about the natural ways of healing the body and curing ailments using complementary therapies, massage and natural remedies. After practicing on her friends and family for several years as well as working for London's biggest corporate and events massage company, practicing massage soon became less of a hobby and more of a lifestyle. With experience behind her and the confidence to move forward, Lynnea decided to start her own small/local business giving her clients more of an opportunity to enjoy these special therapies as treatments or prevention methods helping with the day to day stresses of life.
Baby massage has also become a huge part of Lynnea's life and has been a competely enjoyable experience for her since the beginning. As a mum of one, Lynnea has had the pleasure of learning how to massage her daughter Sianna from 10 weeks old during classes taught by the well know baby massage instructor, Chris Woollatt in Walton-upon-Thames. Not long after Sianna grew out of her baby massage classes, Lynnea decided to study as an instructor of baby massage at the Body Basics School in north London. She now runs up to 5 baby massage classes a week as well as private lessons, colic workshops and demonstrations throughout the Greater London and Surrey area. Lynnea is so grateful to be invited into the lives of so many wonderful families.
