About us
We collaborate
We respect your time
We really care
We are a membership based (we also accept non-members) independent home studio & home visit massage practice located in Victoria Park, Hackney, East London with an ethos that sets us apart from others in our field.
Our treatments are tailored to you and evolve with you. We believe in partnership with our clients. We welcome all our clients to tell us what they want and where to focus. We always listen carefully and check in before, during and after a session to ensure we meet your needs.
When you book a 60 minute treatment, you will receive 60 minutes of hands on treatment and we will be ready for you when you arrive, or be there promptly for a home visit.
For us this isn’t just a job, it’s a vocation. We take satisfaction from seeing the positive impact we have on our clients' lives and knowing that we have made a difference.

Carolyn Khoo
MFHT
Owner & Therapist
Carolyn grew up playing the piano so her strong and expressive hands has given her an edge and a unique style unlike any other. Before getting trained as a therapist, Carolyn has always loved receiving massages but found it challenging to find a therapist that fulfilled all her needs. She set up Khoo Massage Therapies in her home studio in Victoria Park to offer the kind of treatment and experience she would have loved to have had received herself.
Carolyn is a member of the Federation of Holistic Therapists and is qualified in Swedish/Holistic Massage (ITEC), Deep Tissue, Pregnancy, Chair, Hot Stones, Thai Table, Thai Foot, Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD), Natural Facelift (CTHA) and Sports Massage Level 3 (ITEC/VCTC).
Her style of massage is slow and flows with her carefully curated atmospheric music. She is also deceptively strong and skilled at targeting knots and tension without compromising on relaxation. Those who are more sensitive can rest assured that she is also adept at offering a therapeutic session with gentle calming strokes - like Swedish/Holistic or MLD. She also incorporates hot stones in most of her treatments which can help relax tension without rigorous pressure.
Carolyn believes that the best treatment should be collaborative and led by the client because no one knows their own body better than themselves.
