GEORGE MARCOULIS
Say hi to therapist partner George!
With a background in nursing, particularly in the Intensive Care Unit, George brings a wealth of knowledge and compassion to his role as a massage therapist.

Drawing from his nursing background, he approaches each client with empathy and understanding, recognizing that true healing involves addressing the mind and spirit as well as the body.

He prioritizes open communication and collaboration with his clients, ensuring each session is tailored to their unique needs and goals.

EMILY MC CARTHY
Introducing our new therapist partner Emily!
In 2020, a decades-long curiosity about massage and bodywork prompted Emily to begin her journey into the field of bodywork.
Her initial training was in Swedish and holistic massage, before she went on to further her studies in Level 5 Advanced Clinical Massage with the Jing Institute in Brighton.
Emily incorporates the soothing, flowing style of Swedish and holistic massage into all of her treatments, combining this with more advanced techniques, such as direct and indirect myofascial release, trigger point therapy, deep tissue work, and more.
She has volunteered for 18 months in the NHS, and is insured to work with clients with cancer.
Bringing clients into a deeply relaxed state is a cornerstone to all of Emily’s treatments.
She believes in treating every client as an individual, and will adapt each treatment to your needs - whether you are looking to completely zone out with minimal communication; or are in search of more clinically focused work where dialogue and feedback are an important part of better understanding, and treating, your pain condition.
Read more about Emily, her background and what makes her tick in this introductory blog post.
Emily is a registered member of the Association for Soft Tissue Therapists (SMA) and will be available for bookings on Friday mornings from September onwards.
In addition to Fridays at Clinical Massage London, Emily also does mobile work throgh her personal practice, Massage By Emily. To book a massage with Emily, click the link below!
DIANE CROSKIN
Say hi to our new therapist partner Diane Croskin!
Diane has always been passionate about the body and how it works. She first started to explore that passion with a degree in Genetics, before getting into the mechanics of movement as a teacher in pole dancing.
After teaching for five years, Diane was seeking ways to work directly with people and further her knowledge, and in 2021 decided to take the Level 5 diploma in Sports Massage and Remedial Soft Tissue therapy with the North London School of Sports Massage, followed by a MSc Physiotherapy (Pre-Registration).
Diane aims to work collaboratively with the people she treats and to empower people to take charge of their health. You can expect a listening ear during your consultation and collaborative goal setting to help you to recover from whatever you might be experiencing.
Diane takes a holistic whole body approach, through exploring not only physical, but also other stressors or external factors in life that may contribute through impacting biomechanics, the nervous system and pain perception.
She uses her knowledge and experience to get to the bottom of aches and pains - the areas of the body that are ‘noisy’ in terms of pain are not always the areas that are generating the issues that people experience.
Diane is a big fan of techniques like assisted stretching, myofascial releases and trigger point release, and is especially intersted in Pain Science, and empowering cliets through education.
Diane is also in the process of setting up her own practice - you can read more about what drives her personal interest in movement, manual therapy, pain and the human body via this Blog Post.
Diane Croskin is a member of the Association for Soft Tissue Therapists (SMA).

Here’s What Some of Our Clients Had to Say

I went to George as I had some lower back pain. He was very professional in his approach. Responded to where I said the problem was and did not try to rush to a diagnosis/ plan but took it at my pace to stretch my back and relax the muscles so I could release the tension. I definitely helped my flexibility and reduced the pain. He took time to show me some stretches to do on my own and sent me helpful exercises.

Just had an excellent 75 minute, deep tissue massage (including pre massage consultation) with Emily. It was needed. There were a couple of specific painful areas of my body that needed extra work and she did a great job in targeting those areas as well as doing an excellent full body massage overall. I'm very happy with the results and immediately feeling much better. Thank you Emily.

Recently had a brilliant massage with Natalie. I booked with her initially because I imagined that someone who had set up their own small, local business in massage would probably be really passionate about it, and that definitely came across! From the atmosphere she created in the clinic, to the level of personal care, and the overall fantastic quality of the massage itself, it was just 5* all round.
