The Heart Behind the Name

Elbie’s Align Therapies is named after my son, Leo Elbie.

Leo is the heart behind the name, and his journey has shaped the way I see the body, care and recovery.

Supporting him has shown me how strong the body can be when it is given the right support, patience and consistency. It has taught me that progress is not always loud or obvious. Sometimes it is found in small changes, better movement, more comfort, more confidence and the ability to keep going.

That understanding sits at the centre of Elbie’s Align Therapies.

The name is personal, but the work is about you.

It is about helping your body feel supported, easing tension, recovering from physical demand and moving with more ease.

Leo’s story is part of the reason this practice exists, but every client who walks through the door has their own reason for being there.

That is what matters in the treatment room.

My Approach

My approach is calm, practical and therapy-led.

Your session begins with a conversation about what you are feeling, what has brought you in and what you would like support with. Treatment is then adapted to your body, comfort level and goals.

Treatment may include sports massage techniques, deep tissue work, soft tissue techniques and, where appropriate, Bian stone body gua sha.

The aim is to ease muscular tension, support better movement and recovery, and help you feel more comfortable in your body.
