Holistic Treatments

Holistic means looking at the whole person. The mind and body are linked. Our emotions affect our physical condition and it can be helpful to look at why somebody may have a physical ache or pain and what it is trying to show them.

With my Holistic treatments, I like to work on a deeper energetic level so that any emotional and mental issues can come up to heal. That's not to say, you can't come for a relaxing session to de-stress and unwind, because that totally will happen. But if your higher being wants you to do some deep healing, you will be coming to the right place for that to happen.

Holistic treatments available are:

Holistic Body Massage
1 hour £55

A deeply therapeutic, relaxing and nurturing full body massage, to release tension in the muscles, calm the nervous system and soothe away any aches and pains. This massage will also help you very gently release blocked emotions and trauma held in the body.

Holistic means to look at the whole of you and with this massage, whilst we gently release knots and tension in the body, we can also work out why there might be blocked energy in certain areas. The body and mind are inter-linked and often we may be feeling pain in a part of the body and it may be due to a blocked emotion. For example, the back of the lungs area, can be unprocessed grief around the lungs meridian.

With my knowledge of the body/mind connection, I can advise if there are any deeper issues that are showing themselves to be released and assist you in the process of letting go. You will leave feeling lighter and brighter physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually.

Sanctuary Indulgence
90 mins £80

A 90 min massage of your whole body, from top-to-toe, leaving you feeling completely re-balanced, relaxed and revived. This full body treatment consists of deeply relaxing and nurturing massage techniques used on the back, neck & shoulders, legs & feet, arms & hands, chest & heart area, and head & face.

Like the Holistic Body Massage, this treatment will help you heal on all levels - physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. Deeper issues may show themselves for healing as your body begins to let go of stress. You will leave feeling like the weight of the world has been released from your shoulders and your worries will be far behind you.

Reiki
1 hour £55

Reiki is an energy healing technique which promotes relaxation, reduces stress and anxiety, and allows for deeper healing, through gentle touch. Reiki practitioners use their hands to guide energy through your body, improving the flow and unblocking chakras and meridians. Dr Mikao Usui developed Reiki in the early 1900s, deriving the term from the Japanese words rei, meaning “universal,” and ki, which refers to the vital life force energy that flows through all living things to keep them alive.

Reiki helps women become more balanced - physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually, and is the most popular treatment over the last few years, because of its ability in releasing past trauma from abuse, relationship break-ups, childhood issues - some of the key issues that are arising for women as a whole.

I have achieved my Reiki Master Level and have over 17 years of experience giving Reiki and therefore the energy transmitted is of a very high vibration. My Reiki sessions are an unfolding process with Reiki flowing through my hands and your consciousness will take what is needed, for your healing journey. I also connect with my higher consciousness and use my intuition to assist with the healing process. I also teach Reiki and offer Reiki Level 1 & 2 Attunements – please see the other ‘Reiki’ page on this website.

Foot Reflexology
1 hour £55

An ancient healing method originating from Egypt around 2500BC, this proven technique of unblocking energy through pressure points on the feet is also deeply relaxing and grounding. Reflexology, uses a targeted, pressure-point foot massage to restore the flow of energy throughout the body. There are close to 7,000 nerve endings on your feet that when stimulated, affect the entire nervous system. 

Reflexology can address anything from headaches to sinus problems to stomach issues. If sensitivity or tenderness is experienced when an area is stimulated, it usually indicates bodily weaknesses or imbalances within the corresponding organ. With repeated pressure and manipulation of nerve endings, reflexology can help to clear any channels of blocked energy by moving the flow of blood, nutrients and nerve impulses. This ultimately improves overall health and balance. 

Your treatment includes a relaxing foot massage and this whole session promotes a sense of feeling grounded and balanced. Treat your feet and you will feel like you are walking on air!

Foot Reflexology Benefits

Facial Reflexology
1 hour £55

Facial Reflexology is a wonderfully soothing reflexology treatment performed on the face to help release toxins and stress in the body. Facial Reflexology is based on the same theory as traditional Foot Reflexology, but with a focus on the pressure points located on the face.  The face provides a beautiful and precise tool to read what is going on within the body’s internal organs, central nervous system and neuro-biological system. The face’s proximity to the brain and cranial nerves makes Facial Reflexology exceptionally powerful in impacting the body systems.

The unique benefit of Facial Reflexology is that not only does it aim to help you improve your health and wellbeing, it can provide you with a healthy glow which can help you to look better and younger.  The face will look and feel smoother and more toned, as circulation is improved and muscle tension is reduced. Additionally, the body is encouraged to eliminate toxins as the body’s healing mechanisms are stimulated. Not only is this one of the most relaxing treatments I offer, you will have a secondary benefit of having glowing and radiant skin.

Facial Reflexology Benefits

  • Induces relaxation and inner peace and calm

Zone Face Lift
90 mins £80

A combination of Holistic Facial, Facial Reflexology, Japanese Gua Sha and natural face lift techniques.
Trained by Ziggy Bergman in London, who created a world-renowned sculpting and uplifting face massage, I am proud to offer Zone Face Lift,  which journalists have called the “spiritual facelift".

This deeply relaxing treatment will gently release emotions held in the face as you are guided through a transformational healing journey. Some clients call it their ‘natural face-lift’ as Zone Face Lift helps to strengthen layers of the skin tissue and improve skin tone, making possible benefits such as tightening drooping jowls and sagging eyelids, smoothing and softening frown lines and diminishing the effects of the years. Whilst Botox might make people look relaxed on the outside, the added benefit of Zone Face Lift is that it creates a feeling of wellbeing on the inside as well.

Zone Face Lift Benefits

  • Naturally stimulates collagen and elastin
  • Tightens and plumps sagging skin
  • Sculpts the jaw and neck line
  • Smooths out fine lines and wrinkles
  • Clears the skin
  • Increases oxygen and blood flow
  • Helps to release emotions held in the face

White Light Healing
1 hour £55

White Light is the highest vibration of healing colour. It connects us with the Sacred - that place deep within, which, when accessed, guides us to look at those layers of darkness that need to be healed. This session is focused on connecting with what your soul needs, to evolve. This transformational hour consists of a White Light Oracle Card guidance and meditation healing, a mini Sound Healing with Crystal Singing Bowls and deeply healing Reiki.

This session is for those who may have lost their way, or need a little guidance on where their soul path lies, or for those who have deeper issues that need to be released in order to move forward.

With this treatment, you will feel deeply calm and centred with an awareness of what your soul needs at this time. It may help you if you are confused about a job, relationship, or other big life change. It will help you connect with Spirit from the heart and in turn you can access a real intelligence that has a far greater perspective on your life than your head.

Grounding Like A Tree
1 hour £55

A tree’s roots go deep, way down deep, below the earth, connecting into Mother Earth energy so it feels stable, firm and rooted. Sometimes, we need a little grounding if we have been in our heads too much. We may feel dizzy, off-balance, out of sorts, or like our head is too much in the clouds. We may have done too much over-analysing, over-thinking, over-worrying. Our energy quite literally can accumulate too much at the top of our bodies, leaving us feeling ungrounded. It needs to be re-balanced for us to feel centred and whole again. This treatment will help you do just that, and once you feel settled within, your life and external situations that may have previously disrupted your energy, will no longer do so.

A deeply relaxing, 1 hour session focused completely on grounding your energy, this treatment can be beneficial, if you have been through a period of high stress, over-working, home or money struggles or any time where you have been too much in the mind. We start with a short grounding meditation, whilst you are lying down, to help you begin to get connected with your own ‘tree roots’. Once your body begins to relax as you disconnect from your busy life, you receive a relaxing Foot Reflexology treatment to help you begin to let go of ‘head energy’. The session ends with deeply relaxing Reiki at your feet and legs, to draw your busy mental energy down from your head, through the lower part of your body, so you feel totally relaxed, balanced and grounded.

Chakra Clearing
1 hour £55

Chakras are wonderful, whirling energy centers that reside along the midline of our bodies, playing a crucial role in our overall well-being and health. They're like the guardians of our bodily functions, with a direct influence on our physical, emotional, and mental states. Various modern-life stressors, such as environmental toxins, traumatic experiences, insufficient sleep, poor nutrition, and negative thoughts, can block these vital energy hubs. When our chakras are blocked, we might start feeling a bit sluggish and fatigued. If left unattended over time, this could even pave the way for illnesses and diseases to take hold. The question then arises: How do we unblock these chakras, and how can we pinpoint which ones need attention?
 
Enter the Chakra Clearing session, where I use gentle methods like Reiki, crystal dowsing, and intuition to identify and address blocked chakras. We'll also engage in a brief chat about your current feelings and recent life experiences, aiding in pinpointing the chakras that require additional clearing and balancing. While I work through each chakra, with Reiki, crystals, and Crystal Sound Healing Bowls attuned to each energy center, you'll experience a deeply relaxing and soul-soothing journey. Throughout the process, you'll likely feel a profound sense of calm as I guide you through visualizations for each chakra. Energy may subtly shift within your body, and you might find yourself in a deeply relaxed state. Colours associated with each chakra may appear, and you may release old emotions and energy that have been lingering. Rest assured, throughout this journey of release and letting go, you'll be energetically cradled and nurtured. 
For optimal benefits, consider scheduling this treatment regularly, perhaps aligning it with the energy of the Full Moon, which wonderfully supports transformative processes of letting go.

 

Mentoring

Mentoring Sessions
1 hour £55

Mentoring can take many forms. The aim is to help you become more aligned with your soul's purpose. You may not even know what your soul's purpose is, so you may be on a path to discover just that. There may be layers of conditioning (family, cultural and life) that need to be peeled away first. These layers may exist from unresolved trauma or patterns of behaviour that get stuck in our system.

Negative thinking, self-doubt, over-analysing can all create tension and pain in the body and patterns in our minds that are not helpful for our health and well-being. A feeling of being 'not good enough' can lead us to adopt busy lifestyles, to try to 'prove' ourselves, resulting in stress in the mind and body. We may be so far removed from what our heart wants that we are leading a life in total misalignment from our soul.

Mentoring will unfold as guidance and support that your highest good needs at that point in your life, when you seek mentoring. It will always be in complete confidence with a focus on allowing you to connect with your inner wisdom, your gut feeling and your intuition, to help you evolve. I offer a safe space in which you can heal those parts that need healing, let go of energy which does not serve you and to raise your vibration up so you can be your highest self.

Mentoring may include:

  • Counselling
  • Tarot cards
  • Crystal dowsing
  • Bach remedies
  • Meditation
  • Mindfulness
  • Visualisation
  • Breathwork
  • Reiki
  • Chakra clearing
  • Body scanning
  • Bodymind
  • Meridians
  • Positive Affirmations 
  • The Law of Attraction
  • Emotional Freedom Techniques (E.F.T)

Anxiety Support

Anxiety Support
90 mins £80

A soothing, relaxing and empowering, 90 min session for women who suffer with anxiety, panic attacks and other anxiety-related conditions. It is also for those women who experience occasional anxiety and wish to learn techniques to cope with it. 

The session will include 30 mins of Mentoring (where you can learn techniques such as Positive Affirmations, EFT tapping, Bach Remedies), 30 mins Reiki and 30 mins of guided 1-2-1 Meditation/Breathwork practice. These 3 practices will help you feel relaxed in the moment, allowing the nervous system to release any negative charge it accumulates with the condition of anxiety AND give you techniques that you can use at home to manage anxiety AND work with any underlying issues, allowing them to be released gently, helping the mind and body feel calm and centred.

Having suffered for over a decade with crippling anxiety and panic attacks, I understand how alone you can feel - like nothing is going to ever get better and that you will always feel this way. But there are proven natural techniques that I can share with you, that helped me heal and be free of anxiety.

This Anxiety Support session will allow helpful knowledge to be passed on, healing to happen, and also give you a safe space in which you can offload your worries and concerns, so you can feel heard, listened to and understood, and connect with the light at the end of the tunnel.

We all have within us, the power to heal ourselves. These sessions can help you create long-lasting positive change and break free from anxiety programming.

Emotional Freedom Techniques

E.F.T (Emotional Freedom Techniques)
1 hour £55

E.F.T is a revolutionary treatment method that offers healing of physical and emotional pain and trauma. Without the use of needles, acupressure meridian points are gently tapped to move energy in the body. The theory is that the root of all negative emotions is a disruption in the body's energy system and E.F.T releases these blockages, thus removing the unwanted feeling that is attached to the fear or trauma. It has been used effectively for releasing unwanted beliefs, fears, lack of self-confidence, low self-worth, bad habits, negative thought patterns, physical pain, stuck emotions and much more. It is a gentle, non-invasive process that can help shift old stagnant energy, making space for new energy to come into the system.

Step 1 – We identify the presenting problem and explore its roots – when did it start happening and what was going on at that time.

Step 2 – We determine on a scale of 0-10, how the issues make us feel (other issues may arise upon exploring the initial reason for EFT).

Step 3 – We tackle the biggest issue first with an aim to reducing the intensity of how it feels now.

Step 4 – We ensure you feel relaxed, grounded and calm with a short breathing exercise.

Step 4 – We use gentle tapping techniques on meridian points around the face and hands, to reduce the energy associated with issues.

Step 5 – We assess how this makes you feel now and normally there is a reduction in intensity of emotions.

Step 6 – We tap again and continue until we reduce the emotional intensity to a low grading, ideally 0.

Step 7 – Once the energy has been ‘tapped out’ it remains out of the system mentally, emotionally and physically. Previous events/people/places that triggered these emotional responses, will no longer do so, resulting in ‘emotional freedom’.

E.F.T can be used to help RELEASE negative emotions associated with:

  • Anxiety, depression, OCD, PTSD
  • Over-thinking/over-analysing/worrying
  • Fears such as public speaking/travelling/starting something new/driving/childbirth
  • Food cravings and weight loss
  • Pain in the body and health concerns
  • Negative self-image and low self-worth
  • Constantly being busy and stressed

Pregnancy treatments available are:

I also have specific treatments for pregnant women with the aim of creating a cocoon of nurturing energy to help mother-to-be feel relaxed, free of pregnancy aches and pains and have a quiet and calm mind in preparation for birth.of getting pregnant

Pregnancy Massage

The perfect time to treat your body and mind, a Pregnancy Massage will help you feel relaxed, help your body cope with the ever-changing demands with being pregnant, and help your mind switch off from any pregnancy worries.

A side-lying, gentle and nurturing massage, your aches and pains will be soothed away and tension in the back, neck, shoulders, hips, legs and arms will be released with this Pregnancy Massage.

Pregnancy Massage Benefits

  • Reduced stress hormones and anxiety
  • Improved mood and sleep
  • Increased blood flow and oxygenation
  • Reduced pain and inflammation
  • Improved immune system and digestion
  • Hormone regulation
  • Reduced swelling

Beautiful Bump
90 mins £80

If you are feeling like you need a little extra pamper-time and would like your feet massaged and your heart/chest area, face and head massaged too, then this Beautiful Bump treatment is the one for you. Including everything from the Pregnancy Massage with additional foot massage, neck & face massage and scalp massage, this 90 min session will leave you feeling truly pampered and completely relaxed from top-to-toe.

For all my pregnancy massage treatments, I use Songbird Naturals Zest Massage Wax, which is a light, gentle, refreshing and uplifting citrus massage wax containing lime and mandarin essential oils. It has a subtle and zesty scent and is suitable in pregnancy as the essential oil content falls well below the latest regulatory requirements for a ‘leave on’ product. Coconut Oil is also an option if you prefer.

Maternity Reflexology
1 hour £55

Maternity Reflexology is aimed specifically at women during pregnancy with specific techniques for helping you feel relaxed as your body changes in pregnancy. Reflexology can help the body and mind find balance and calm, amongst all the emotional, hormonal and physiological changes, and can help or prevent discomfort arising from this imbalance, and restore the body’s equilibrium.

Research has shown that regular reflexology treatments during pregnancy can shorten the duration of labour, with many women requiring less pain-relief. From week 38, you can have ‘Priming Reflexology’ where we use certain techniques to naturally increase the flow of the hormone oxytocin, with a view of stimulating labour and preparing the body from birth. Whilst this doesn’t guarantee that labour will begin (Mother Earth always has her own plan!), it will help prepare the body, mind and emotions so that you feel more positive and less stressed, resulting in reduced cortisol. The most important emotions that you can feel towards the end of pregnancy are surrender, relaxation and calm, rather than stress, worry and anxiety, and this treatment will help increase the feel-good emotions and decrease the negative emotions.

Maternity Reflexology Benefits

  • Increases endorphins which are natural pain-killers
  • Increases oxytocin which reduces stress
  • Increases serotonin which increases feelings of happiness
  • Increases energy levels
  • Eases physical aches and pains
  • Effective in managing SPD (symphysis pubis dysfunction)
  • Effective in managing backache and sciatica
  • Reduces heartburn, nausea, morning sickness symptoms
  • Relieves oedema (swelling, mainly of feet and ankles)
  • Reduces ligament and groin pain
  • Helps with insomnia and sleep problems
  • Helps prepare the body for labour

Fertility Reflexology
1 hour £60

Thinking about getting pregnant?

Want to optimise your chances of getting pregnant?

Have you been pregnant before but finding it hard this time round?

Have you suffered from miscarriages with no known cause?

Are you undertaking assisted conception such as IVF or IUI?

Have you been trying to get pregnant for a while, but with no luck?

If you fall into any of these categories, then you may wish to use Fertility Reflexology as a support for fertility. Getting pregnant is not easy for some couples and you may find yourself feeling extremely stressed and despondent, which can then lead to a cycle of negative thinking about the whole situation.

I am trained in a specialised form of reflexology for fertility and conception called Reproflexology. It is a deeply relaxing and effective treatment, which can help the body and mind feel balanced, which in turn affects the balancing of the endocrine system (the hormones). Reproflexology is a great treatment to have when you are trying to conceive, irrelevant of whether you have any problems. It is a wonderful way to prepare your body and mind for pregnancy, and to help you feel relaxed and calm throughout the process.

There are many reasons why it might be difficult to conceive, which we will explore in your session, but one of the key factors is stress. Research has shown that women whose saliva had high levels of alpha-amylase, an enzyme that marks stress, took 29% longer to get pregnant compared to those who had less. Stress can also mean someone might drink more alcohol, have problems sleeping, or eat more unhealthy foods, all of which can affect the chances of conceiving.

With my Fertility Reflexology sessions, I use the Reproflexology techniques, enabling the hormones and body to be at their best energy levels, to allow for conception. I also offer guidance on meditation to help you feel more relaxed, The Law of Attraction to help you have a positive mindset, and Bach Remedies to help release any negative emotions that may be getting in the way. I adopt a holistic approach so that your body, mind and emotions are all functioning together, and you can begin to feel empowered as you make small, but important steps, to create the best positive energy for conception.

Before your treatment starts, we’ll talk about your medical and gynaecological history and any previous pregnancy experiences. I’ll ask about your lifestyle, diet, sleep patterns, energy, and fitness levels. When you’re happy that Fertility Reflexology is right for you, we’ll plan your course of reflexology treatments. Ideally, it’s best to have two treatments before ovulation, with weekly treatments thereafter. At every appointment, I will check in with your stress levels and where you are in your menstrual cycle.

Regular treatments throughout the menstrual cycle are recommended to promote the ideal conditions to support and develop a healthy egg through to ovulation, aid implantation, and help support a pregnancy.  However, if you wish to have monthly treatments instead, with a view of increasing relaxation and decreasing stress, this is also possible too. I am a qualified practitioner in Seren Natural Fertility, trained by the renowned Fertility Reflexology expert Barbara Scott. At the very, VERY least Fertility Reflexology promotes deep relaxation and offers a gentle, human touch combined with peace, quiet and the chance to switch off from the stress and worry of it all.

Fertility Reflexology Benefits

  • Promotes deep relaxation, maximising the chances of conception
  • Helps to regulate the menstrual cycle and correct hormonal imbalances
  • Helps clients undergoing IVF treatment as the increased blood circulation could enhance the effects of medical fertility treatment
  • Clears toxins from the body, such as environmental toxins that may affect fertility
  • Helps with sleep, which is important in ensuring all the pregnancy hormones are working well
  • Provides effective stress relief so that cortisol (which interferes with fertility) is reduced
  • Guidance on manifesting a healthy pregnancy with your thoughts and ‘The Law of Attraction’
  • Reduces and releases negative emotions associated with not getting pregnant
  • Prevents negative cycles from re-occurring by creating a new positive mindset and positive habits
  • Calms the mind, balances the emotions, and allows you to relax into the process of getting pregnant
