About Natalie

I've always loved massage and qualified in Swedish massage 12 years ago. Since then, I decided I wanted to gain more knowledge of the body and went on to specialise in other areas such as sports massage and reflexology.

I can offer you a relaxing massage to help you with the everyday stresses of life if you simply want to relax and switch off or I can work more on any problematic areas and relieve muscular tensions.

I am qualified to use dry cupping which can be great to loosen up any areas and give you a better range of movement, I can add this into your massage.

I will also be offering a little reflexology routine at the end of massages if people would like this. Reflexology is really great for giving you that uplifted feeling, as we are on our feet all day it can be quite nice to pay them some attention!

Whatever your needs I can tailor the massage to suit you!

Can I add a 6th star please?I had a post natal massage with Fi, and I have to say, it was one of the best massages ever. Very professional and great at what she does.Fi listened to me and focused on the areas that were causing Me discomfort (shoulders and back) and focused on them.Cannot rate her and the place enough. Will certainly be back.Highly recommend her. Thank you for such a relaxing hour 😎

I had a fantastic massage appointment this morning with Fi. The whole experience felt safe, professional, relaxing and incredibly helpful for my long covid symptoms. Just what I needed. And I have already booked another appointment. I would highly recommend Fi and Origin massage. Wonderful! 👌🏼

Jen B

Fi is wonderful! The best massages I've ever received, and her knowledge of and interest in birth and pregnancy is incredible. I've loved chatting through my thoughts with her, and sharing the experience of lockdown pregnancies. She's been so generous in providing ideas and advice as well as massage therapy.

Emily C B.

I had the BEST hot stone massage today from Fi. So friendly and great at checking in that everything was just right, which it was. Absolutely 100% recommend I feel all out back together and warm 🥰

Fi is an absolute gem. I had the most relaxing, needed pregnancy massage at 34 weeks. The restless legs were totally soothed. Can’t wait for my next one.

Lauren Leigh C.

I want to Fi for a pregnancy massage and it was incredible. I was suffering with painful back and shoulders as well as needing vital relaxation. Fi took the time to listen and understand my needs, was thorough and thoughtful in her approach.Her knowledge and passion around pregnancy and post natal care is incredible. I felt cared for and safe at all times. From giving me the time to get myself together pre massage, to the cleverly placed pillows for additional comfort and the time post massage. Nothing ever felt rushed or hurried.The massage itself was one of the best I've had (and I've had many). My comfort was considered through out and the environment was so cosy. It was exactly what I needed to help me reset and face the oncoming pregnancy challenges in a positive state of mind.I will definately be going back for my post natal care package 🙂

Jo H.

I have had many massages, but this was by far the best! I spoke at length with Fi before the appointment, explaining how I am struggling with migraines during pregnancy. During the massage, I could tell that Fi really took on board my problem and worked hard around the tension areas. It really felt that she knew exactly how to target the problem areas of a migraine-head! I was so relaxed I almost fell asleep a few times! And I left feeling so much better. Fi made sure I was comfortable and offered extra towels for support under my shoulders which I hadn’t had before. She really couldn’t have done any more. The room was lovely and warm and the towels that had been warming on the radiator were heavenly and were even swapped half way through for an extra treat! Can not recommend enough for a pregnancy massage / massage to help with migraines and tension!

sarah B.

I was so relaxed and comfortable in Fi’s company - she clearly knows exactly what she’s doing. Fi went above and beyond to explain different types of massage and asked how much pressure I liked.I never knew how much I needed a massageand I feel so much better and relieved of tension.The space is absolutely beautiful as well, so cosy and gorgeous.

Beth J.

Fi is incredible, she is so skilled in understanding exactly what you need, and delivers this with the utmost care and professionalism. I felt entirely comfortable and knew what was happening at all times. The room was beautifully decorated, with clean covers, warm towels, and perfectly placed cushions, I honestly could have stayed there for the rest of the night! I don't sleep very well generally, but after my relaxation massage I slept like a baby. Real, quality sleep that I didn't think I was capable of any more! And even better, my neck was fully released and my headaches disappeared. Thank you for the care and love you put into your work Fi, I can't wait to come back! ❤️

Gill T.

A wonderful antenatal massage from Fi. Clearly very experienced and took the time to identify problem areas and tailor the massage accordingly. Very relaxing. Will definitely be back and highly recommend to all!

Victoria D.

Really enjoyed my massage with Fi - very professional and knowledgeable and put me at ease straight away. Felt very relaxed after and will be booking in again before baby arrives! Would recommend 👌

Amy T.

I came to Fi as a first timer to massage and I'll definitely be coming back soon! She was really good at explaining things and clearly knows her stuff. In addition to an excellent massage that loosened up my tight shoulders she also helped loosen my tight injured back up. Fi gave me some good tips and advice on where to seek further help to avoid injuring myself again which I really appreciated. I walked away very happy with my experience and couldn't recommend her more!

Dom W.

What a treat! I had a 90 minute pregnancy massage with Fi and she is just fabulous. I left feeling physically and mentally lighter and very calm and refreshed. She is a true professional and expert at what she does. I will certainly be booking in another massage (or two!) before baby arrives. Having not had a massage for a long time it made me realise that my well-being should certainly be prioritised more often and it was worth every penny. See you again soon Fi! x

Jennifer H.

Had a wonderful massage with Lucy. She was warm and professional, and spent time beforehand checking what I was looking for, any areas of tension etc. I felt really comfortable, the room was soothing, the pressure was just right (she checked during the massage, which I always appreciate because too much pressure makes me sore and achey for days after and it's not always easy to pipe up and say so at the time), and as the hour went on I could feel the tension melting away. I went for stress relief and relaxation, and came out feeling like I was floating. I'll definitely be back.

Fi was great, she was so welcoming and considerate to your needs and it was the best massage I've had! It was good to completely switch off and relax. I will definitely be back! Thank you

Claire R.

I had never had a hot stone massage before, Fi explained in great detail what it can do for me and how it should feel. Totally made me feel at ease. The treatment totally surpassed all my expectations. The stones glide so well over the body, that combined with the warmth they give out and the expert handling of them made me feel more relaxed then I’ve been in a long time as well as making my aches and pains feel better, relaxing my tense muscles. This is one treatment I will aim to have on a more regular basis. Thank you so much Fi

Emma H.

Just been for a post natal massage. First time having a massage and was made to feel very comfortable. Loved the heated towels.

Rachel S.

Had a wonderful full body massage with Fi. The whole experience was incredibly relaxing. I felt totally nurtured, with lovely warm towels and felt so comfortable. She is professional, respectful, listens to your needs and gives the appropriate treatment. She has a very special touch and I would highly recommend. Thank you Fi for such a special treat 🤗

Pamela B.

I had the BEST hot stone massage today from Fi. So friendly and great at checking in that everything was just right, which it was. Absolutely 100% recommend I feel all put back together and warm 🥰

Cat R.

Absolutely incredible massage from Fi today. After having a really difficult week Fi was able to literally reset my nervous system, I left feeling 100x better than when I arrived. Fi has such an intuitive style, I felt like she read what I needed from my body perfectly. At 37 weeks pregnant I didn’t know how massage would feel on my aching limbs and pelvic girdle pain but it was absolutely magic, I feel so incredibly relaxed and the pelvic pain has even improved slightly. Fi also gave me some helpful advice with some things I’ve been struggling with through my pregnancy. Highly recommend this wonderful woman.

Rheanna G.

Fi was incredibly respectful and professional and the massage was gorgeous and so relaxing. The space is beautiful and tranquil, I was offered everything I could need, and the obvious focus on boundaries and consent made me feel totally at ease. Couldn’t recommend Fi enough. 🥰

Update - had a hot stone massage with Fi which I was a little apprehensive about as I hadn’t had one before.. and oh my goddd I would never get anything else now!! Fi was communicative and always made sure the stones were the right temperature and that I was comfortable. Amazing experience. Next time I want an Indian head massage. 😍

Sophie A.

Terrific massage - extremely relaxing. I'm definitely going to make a habit of this!

Erica S.

I've suffered with sciatica and a stiff achy back and shoulders for many years which was considerably worse during and after my pregnancy. I booked in for a postnatal massage with Fi Hennessy who took time asking me about problematic and sensitive areas, welcomed me to the Sheffield Wellness Centre (amazing place!) and made sure I was comfortable and well looked after.Fi is a remarkable lady who exudes warmth and definitely knows her way around a postnatal body. The relief was incredible, I felt relaxed and peaceful and thoroughly enjoyed being pampered. I had a 1hr session and booked my second appointment before leaving - these sessions have now become part of my self care routine. Fi has a way of making you feel body confident regardless of size or wobbly bits which was inspiring. My mind and body are very thankful for these sessions with Fi 🙂

Sarah R.

Had a lovely relaxing pregnancy massage! I had never had a massage before- Fi made sure I was comfortable and really made me feel at ease. Can't recommend enough and looking forward to coming back soon.

Katy H.

Had an antenatal massage with Fi, was so calm and relaxing, just what I needed. Would highly recommend!
