Rose Hardman
Having discovered the power of massage for herself, during a phase of burnout while working in the NHS, Rose decided to train in Holistic Massage. Prior to this, she worked for more than a decade as an NHS diagnostic radiographer.
Rose moved to Bristol in 2025 to complete a diploma in Holistic Massage at the highly regarded Bristol College of Massage and Bodywork (BCMB). Here she discovered how powerful touch can be for creating safety, allowing rest and repair, reducing pain and improving overall wellbeing.
Rose is particularly interested in how massage can contribute to the wellbeing of those with burnout and fatigue, having experienced the benefits herself.
She is passionate about reducing her environmental impact and blends her own organic massage oils.
Rose now balances a new NHS job at the BRI with her massage practice. Outside of work, you can find Rose hiking, tending to her allotment and making her own clothes.

Rose was really calm and welcoming, and I appreciated how easily she could tailor the massage to my needs. She was very attentive and checked in with me regularly about pressure. I left feeling completely relaxed! I would thoroughly recommend, and I look forward to my next massage.
“I highly recommend booking a massage with Rose. Her strong massage skills are beautifully complemented by her calm, warm, respectful presence, and I always came out of the massage feeling better in both body and spirit.”
“I really benefited from Rose’s massage and breathwork when I was going through a stressful time. She has a gentle and attuned presence and a good variety of techniques. I would highly recommend her.”
Rose is a highly knowledgeable and skilled massage therapist. She listened carefully and the massage was tailored to exactly what I needed. Rose gently checked in and ensured I felt comfortable and knew what was happening. The massage was excellent – I didn’t want it to end! I highly recommend Rose and look forward to another massage soon.
