• Tracey Joscelyn - Traditional Thai Massage01766 770610

  Traditional Thai massage has a long history of therapeutic healing. Its origins go back to India over 2500 years ago, lying in Ayurvedic medicine and yoga. It is often known as Thai yoga massage. Thai massage is a holistic practice working physically on the whole body, and most importantly seeks to rebalance the flow of Prana (life force or Qi) that flows through us– supporting the body’s natural healing abilities, relieving pain and tension. The theoretical foundations of Thai massage are based on energy lines running through the body. When the energy lines become blocked, prana is unable to flow freely. Working on these lines through massage can break the blockages, stimulate the flow of prana, and help to restore general well-being. Blocked energy lines result in aches, pains and discomfort. Thai massage is unlike any other kind of massage. It is a combination of targeted acupressure and gentle yoga stretches, stimulating the energy lines, toning the muscles and tendons and opening the joints. Energising yet deeply relaxing, bringing the body into balance and harmony. It encourages us to slow down and settle into our bodies. It has a spiritual healing dimension and is not just a physical therapy. The massage is suitable for people of all ages and abilities. It can be varied to suit a wide range of physical needs, and can be used as a form of physical therapy to help increase range of motion and muscular strength. The client is fully clothed with the massage taking place on a mattress on the floor. Thai massage can help: • Back pain • Joint pain • Headaches/migraines • Stress and anxiety • Flexibility • Circulation • Digestion • Restore well-being For more information or to book a massage contact Tracey on 01766 770610 or 07809485323

• Rachel Williams - Psychotherapist07546 743238

  Hello, I'm Rachel and I have been a practicing therapist for over 13 years. I realise that accessing therapy may be daunting, even frightening so I aim to make it as calm, warm, safe and nurturing as possible.

  My belief is that healing from trauma is absolutely possible and use a variety of therapeutic approaches to best suit the client.

  I am qualified in Transactional Analysis, EMDR, CBT and like to use the IFS model as an approach as I find it amazingly transformational when working with clients: working with the different parts of the personality to find alignment and taking into consideration the emotional child parts and how to help them. With clients I consistently draw attention to how we hold trauma and past experiences somatically (in the body) and how that is inseparable from any experience we have in the present. Also, how emotional childhood experience links to a wealth of physical diseases and problems in adulthood.

  I am very experienced in seeing clients who bring a whole range of issues such as anxiety, depression, relationship problems, stress, abuse and many, many more.

  Together, we would work with a strong focus on the current issues and what has brought you to therapy, what needs to change in the present and how we can do that, whilst dealing with the causes of the struggle that are linked to past history. I like to make sure clients have a variety of coping techniques to help them cope with what they are going through in the present.

  I would love to meet you and find out what you want from therapy and devise a plan to achieve it.

• Angharad Jones - Shiatsu and Holistic AcupressureInstagram

  Hi, my name is Angharad, and I am a qualified holistic acupressure therapist and final year shiatsu student. I offer a person-centred approach to my shiatsu practice and create a space for you to rest and restore your energy. Shiatsu is a practice that originates from Japan and is generally performed on a futon, fully clothed, on the floor. Where getting to the floor is not accessible, shiatsu can be performed in a chair or on a massage table. Through incorporating pressure, stretches, mobilisations and acupressure points shiatsu helps bring our awareness back to our body and to restore the body’s natural balance.

  Shiatsu and acupressure can help support general health and wellbeing as well as help manage stress, sleep problems, chronic pain, migraines, musculoskeletal issues, emotional wellbeing and menopausal symptoms.

  I combine my shiatsu practice with my experience and knowledge of over 10 years of working as a dancer within community practice where having a person-centred approach is at the heart of my practice. I am experienced in leading dance and movement sessions with people living with Parkinsons’s, dementia, people with additional learning needs as well as leading groups to support mental health and wellbeing.
