Having grown up in the Scottish countryside, Katie has always had a love for the outdoors and adventure. While studying Sports Science at the University of Edinburgh, she developed a strong interest in anatomy. This interest, coupled with her passion for working with people, made a career as a massage therapist the perfect fit. Having spent most of her life in the mountains, she decided to change things up and give ocean life a try, a decision she has not once regretted. An active person herself, Katie loves nothing more than helping to ease aches and pains with a sports or deep tissue massage. However, she equally enjoys leaving her guests feeling relaxed after a Swedish massage or a luxurious facial.
