Take Care - Holistic Therapy

About

I am a nurse by background and have worked in the NHS for 38 years, as nurse, Matron and Manager, before training to become a Complementary and Holistic Therapist.  I have always been passionate about caring for people from a holistic perspective and it has always been a central focus of my patient care and work within the NHS.  This ethos has continued into my Complementary Therapy practice. ​I believe life is a continuous evolution which involves lifelong education, teaching, coaching, supporting and nurturing; being kind and considerate, treating everyone with respect and dignity. Take Care has been lovingly developed using these principles with my main aim of helping everyone who comes to see me to feel good about themselves; loved and cared for and getting them to share that love. I have completed my training at the NHS Natural Health School in Harrogate and Im a member of the Federation of Holistic Therapists (FHT), the Association of Reflexologists (AoR) and The Guild of Holistic and Beauty Therapists. I began my Holistic Therapy journey in 2017 studying multiple modalities. I bought the bungalow (which became The Healing Garden) in January 2020 just before lockdown and have lovingly created it to be what you see today. The Healing Garden is a little sanctuary in a quiet cul-de-sac. From the moment you walk through the door, you will feel calm and welcomed - not to mention the beautiful aromatherapy that greets you. I will not rush you, you have time and space to relax before & after your treatments. Treatments can be taken in the bungalow, in the garden room and weather permitting, even in the garden. I have recently added Group Sound Relaxation Therapy to my portfolio so host monthly soundbaths for wellbeing and relaxation. I also run regular workshops at the bungalow ranging from making your own products from herbs and flowers from the garden, getting crafty or learning a new skill - watch out for those on my Facebook and Instagram pages. I am more than happy for groups of friends to take over the bungalow for bespoke events, spa days, get togethers etc, which I will help design for you and deliver to the highest standard.
