Meet Jackie GIllick
Tailored massage for every body.
My name is Jackie. I’m a Californian massage therapist working in Thanet, Kent. Your home becomes my studio for the space of your treatment. At Exhale, massage is tailored to your body and your stage of life. I offer deep-tissue, pregnancy-safe, sports-informed massage and reflexology designed to ease tension, support recovery and help you properly switch off. A calm, supportive space where you can rest, re-set and feel cared for.
I am deeply grateful to have been able to offer intuitive bodywork to the Thanet community since 2021. It’s a privilege to support people through many stages of life — working with all kinds of bodies, from babies and children to adults navigating pregnancy, stress, injury or oncology treatment. Creating a safe, respectful space where people feel listened to and at ease is at the heart of everything I offer.
My services
Deep Tissue Massage
A transporting journey through your body’s soft tissues. Individual-centred and non-formulaic, each massage is the unique result of the communication between therapist and client. Pressure is constantly adjusted, focused on finding and healing.
Reflexology
A concentrated treatment of the feet or hands which positively affects the whole body. Reflexology has been proven to be especially helpful for chronic conditions (MS), pain management and the improvement of specific issues such as headache, inconsistent sleep and digestive problems.
Head, Face, Neck & Shoulder Massage
Deeply relaxing treatment of scalp, face and upper body muscles and skin. This is a common area for stress to be held by the body, causing headaches and tension. Let that melt away and you’ll be ready to face the world again.
Pregnancy and Recovery Massage
Benefiting both mother and baby and so the ecology of the whole family, massage in the second, third and fourth trimesters feels transformative. As an experienced mother, I offer a space where you can connect to your changing body and growing baby.
I have completed a MamaBabyBliss CPD Diploma in Pregnancy Massage, and I'm fully qualified to conduct pregnancy massage treatments. See my certificate here.
*Adjustments can be made to accommodate the various needs of clients undergoing oncology treatment or who have specific medical needs.
Mobile Massage
I offer mobile massage services, bringing a calm and professional experience directly to your home so you can relax and feel completely comfortable in your own space. Suitable for nearly all homes and workplaces. Contact me if you have questions about finding the right space.

Jackie creates such a calming and professional experience from start to finish. I always feel completely relaxed during the session and noticeably better afterwards. Having a mobile massage is such a game changer, and Jackie makes it feel effortless. I wouldn’t go anywhere else.

I love going to Jackie after playing basketball, she really helps ease any soreness from long games and keeps me feeling my best. It’s also such a great chance to properly relax, and I especially appreciate that she can come to me, which makes the whole experience even easier. She’s incredibly friendly and always makes me feel completely comfortable. Highly recommend.
