Laarni Lorenzo started her life in nursing and midwifery. She has over 20 years' experience in massage in the Philipines.

She gained a Level 4 Certificate in Sports massage and continued her professional development, obtaining certificates in manual lymphatic drainage and myofascial release. 

Laarni joined the team at Hillsborough Chiropractic Clinic in 2020. Being qualified as a midwife Laarni enjoys using pregnancy massage to help pregnant ladies with muscle pains. Laarni's treatments are unique to each client and can be based on deep tissue, sports injury therapy or relaxation. Using a mixture of trigger point therapy and deep tissue release, treatments are thorough yet relaxing, leaving you with the sensation that your muscles have been given a workout. 

For a really relaxing treat you could try a therapeutic massage with manual lymphatic drainage. Laarni treats many of our patients, complementing their chiropractic treatment by helping to keep their muscles more relaxed.

Eddie Carballo first became interested in massage as an adolescent when trying to relieve the symptoms of various childhood health conditions. This interest stayed with him as he studied biochemistry at Lancaster University and into his early working life. Whilst working in high end fashion and hospitality he came to realise that he needed to help people feel great rather than just look great and having a great time. He decided to retrain in Holistic Massage Therapy at the Sheffield Centre for Massage Training.  Eddie qualified in 2011 and has been practising ever since, bringing a sense of well-being to his clients. He has developed his skills over the years, adding myofascial release, deep tissue massage, and passive joint mobilisation techniques into his practice. He believes that holistic massage is about treating the whole person; mind, body and spirit, and using the right technique in a relaxing and therapeutic manner. He has had success in helping clients who suffer with a wide range of physical and mental health conditions. He has worked with amateur and professional athletes as well as people suffering from chronic conditions.

Eddie hopes to see you soon.
