Lyn Breakwell
Treatments offered:
With over a decade practising bodywork I have developed an intuitive understanding of what each person needs to improve their well being or relieve their pain.
This is my passion and with ongoing training I constantly deepen my knowledge of the body and increase the variety of treatments I can draw on to help people move more freely, feel more energised and relaxed, and enjoy life more fully. I am a great believer in developing my skills and have trained with some of the top practitioners in her specialist areas. Experts such as Art Riggs (remedial and deep tissue massage), Noah Karrasch (bodyworker), Ruth Duncan, Tom Myers and James Earles (myofascial release).
I love a challenge, and many clients get referred to me to give them another angle on a problem that proves difficult to treat.
Five things that define my approach:
- Maintaining wellness is as important as treating injury.
- Giving the right treatment depends on listening carefully with the ears and with the hands.
- The body and mind are one - helping people make connections between physical and emotional pain is vital to their long-term well being.
- Search beyond the obvious for the source of pain, for example, a problem in the right shoulder can have its source in the left hip.
Specialist areas
- Maintaining and improving people’s general wellbeing
- Relieving and preventing recurrence of stress-related pain
- Healing chronic and acute sports and other injuries
- Relieving and preventing recurrence of a wide range of posture-related problems
- Alleviating pain and enabling movement in people with conditions such as fibromyalgia

⭕️ The Acupuncture Collective - This Monday ⭕️
We often talk about health as a marathon, not a sprint. With winter (and El Niño), and all its demands on our immune system, on its way, now is the perfect time for a pre-emptive tune-up.
In Chinese medicine, our immune system is made up of layers of defence, and Acupuncture is our Holy Grail in fortifying these defences.
From a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) perspective, strengthening your Wei Qi (Protective Qi) now is the best way to prevent winter colds and keep your foundations strong.
Whether you've been managing chronic digestive issues, navigating hormonal wobbles, or seeking support for your mental well-being, our Collective haven is here to help you.
We'll be working to build that natural inner vitality so you can greet the colder months from a place of strength.
We are also delighted to let you know that with Dr Sunila taking a step back, as she prepares for the arrival of her little one, we welcome Jules Simonneau to the Moon Women's Health practitioner family.
Our next Acupuncture Collective is taking place between 3pm to 8pm on Monday 12th October

Despite the warmth, Autumn is now well and truly upon us: the farmers’ market is full of squashes and conkers shimmer underfoot.
With the season change comes an artwork change to adorn the wall of Moon’s studio space.
Local artist Jen Cable has continued her generosity and loaned us her work ‘Hidden Connections’ - a piece that highlights the interconnected world of trees.
Mature trees are able to pass nutrients to shaded or struggling saplings through their underground fungal networks. During drought, trees share water with their neighbours, helping younger trees thrive when resources are scarce.
Trees don’t simply look after themselves - they’re part of a bigger, connected community. We see this reflected our own community, the small acts that keep us together. A kind word, checking in on a neighbour, sharing what we have, lending a hand when someone is struggling.
When times are tough, these small acts of care can make all the difference. So, when you next pass a tree in your street, give it a drink. A little water from each of us can go a long way.
