My story
Some paths we plan.
And then life takes us
somewhere else entirely.
My path to massage began in 2009. Then life led me elsewhere — and years later it brought me back to something that had been in me all along.
How it started
My path to massage began back in 2009. I trained in reconditioning and sports massage, Thai oil massage, Hawaiian Lomi Lomi, Chinese energy massage and a number of other massage techniques.
For several years I did massage professionally, and I discovered that what fulfils me most about this work is something no course can teach —contact with another person, listening, and the chance to create a space where they can switch off for a while.
Then life led me away from massage. I changed field, worked in hospitality, in IT, and finally spent several years in logistics. It was valuable experience. It taught me discipline, responsibility, organisation and working with people. At the same time, I slowly began to feel that something important was missing.
The journey
There and back again
And that was exactly when my path slowly began to return to where it started.

The detour
Hospitality, IT and logistics
Then life led me away from massage. I changed field and eventually spent several years in logistics. It was valuable experience — it taught me discipline, responsibility, organisation and working with people.
Meanwhile
The period that changed me
In the meantime my daughter was born and a period came that changed me as a person a great deal. I had to handle things I had never planned for, and I learned that sometimes you have to be strong at the very moment you would rather rest for a while.
The turn
A visit to my sister
I was giving her a massage, and it suddenly hit me: why did I ever leave this behind? This was where I felt good.
The decision
It fell into place almost by itself
Where the other directions I considered felt like something I would have to push myself into, with massage everything started falling into place almost by itself. It was surprisingly natural.
Today
Wau Wau Massages
A place where you can set down, for a while, everything you “have to” do. Slow down. Breathe out. Not have to explain anything. Or talk, if that is what you need.
The return
I see it as a return to something
that was in me all along.
Back in 2009, during a shamanic ritual, I received a very strong impulse to pay more attention to my hands and to work with them. At the time I had no idea where that path would lead.
Today I find it beautiful that, after all these years,the circle is closing.
I believe in the power of conscious touch, of kindness, compassion and respect. I also believe that caring for a person is not only about the body, but about the whole feeling they take away from that moment.
What matters to me
Three things that never change here
Conscious touch
During a massage I am here — with your back, not with the next client or with whatever the afternoon holds. What fulfils me most about this work is something no course can teach.
Kindness and compassion
Because of my own journey I understand much better today how easily we forget about ourselves. You don’t have to explain anything or apologise for anything.
Respect
I only uncover the part of the body I am working on. I ask before I press harder. And your “that’s enough” is always the last word.
Training and courses
What I have behind me
Massage is not a craft you can learn from a video. I laid the foundations in 2009, and every technique since has shifted the way I see what I already knew.

Why Wau Wau
It is not just massage
Wau Wau Massages is not just a place you come to for a massage. It is a place where you can set down, for a while, everything you “have to” do. Slow down. Breathe out. Not have to explain anything. Or talk, if that is what you need.
Because of my own journey I understand much better today how easily we forget about ourselves. And that is exactly why I want to create a space where you can come back to yourself for a while.
With humility, kindness and respect.

We cannot always change our circumstances, but we can change the way we meet them.
Looking forward to meeting you
I’d love to meet you
Pick a time online, call, or send a WhatsApp message. A first massage is always a bit of getting to know each other — and that’s perfectly fine.
