Natural Holistic Treatments

​

 Nurturing and therapeutic, time and space to relax and focus on yourself

​

I am a caring and experienced Clinical Reflexologist with other specialist training.  I consistently maintain ongoing professional development and research.  I am very privileged to have trained with highly skilled and reputable teachers.  My passion is to help you to feel better, and to support you with self care techniques that you can use in-between treatments.  

 

I specialise in Stress Management and supporting the Nervous System, Women's Health, Pain Management, Lymphatic drainage, working with chronic long term medical conditions and general wellbeing and relaxation. 

​

We need to recognise when we are experiencing prolonged and sustained stress levels, we may notice changes in our emotions and our physical health.  When did this start, can we even remember? When we remain constantly stressed in a state of 'fight', 'flight' 'freeze' or 'fawn'  the body has incredible capacity to keep us feeling like we are just coping, chemicals and hormones flood our bodies making it so difficult for us to remain in balance.  Reflexology treatments encourage the body and mind to slow down to a more natural state of 'rest and digest'.  When our nervous system becomes more regulated we can really feel the shifts as our body can then focus energy on healing. Stephen Porges founded the Polyvagal Theory which is fascinating.  He explains how the Polyvagal theory and the function of our Vagus Nerve can help us to improve our health and wellbeing.

Your appointment is always about you and how you feel.  What is affecting you right now? I am here to support you on your journey with whatever you are dealing with, or would like to work with. I often hear words such as 'I don't feel seen', or 'I don't feel heard', 'I have regular pain' or 'I just don't feel like myself anymore', this needs to change.  We owe it to ourselves to live our best lives, whatever that may look or feel like.

​

My treatment room is a sanctuary, warm and welcoming and beautifully presented, completely private with its own garden backing onto woods.  Before you arrive for your first appointment, I will contact you by phone to talk through any current medication and any medical conditions.  We can talk through your expectations and what you would like to achieve.  When you arrive for your first appointment, I will complete a consultation form with you and can answer any questions you may have.  

​

Should you feel unwell or something changes preventing you from attending your appointment, I do ask that you give a minimum of 48 hours notice of cancellation so that I can offer your appointment to someone else.  If you cancel less than 24 hours in advance of your Reflexology appointment then I ask that full payment is made unless I am able to fill your appointment.  All treatments must be paid for at the time of the session, card or cash payments are accepted.

​

Reflexology does not claim to cure or to diagnose.  Reflexology is frequently used alongside conventional medical treatments supporting your wellbeing journey.  I will always put your health and wellbeing needs first.  I work fully in line with my Professional Body, AOR (Association of Reflexologists) and my Insurers.  Please see my Privacy and GDPR Statement

​

I look forward to hearing from you.
