I CAN’T WAIT TO MEET YOU

About me

I’m excited to bring my holistic therapy business to you and to Herefordshire

Hi, I’m Rachel

I have over 20 years’ experience as a holistic therapist, alongside almost 20 in the NHS (I know, I don’t look old enough!) where I worked in Mental Health Services as a Community Psychiatric Nurse.

Initially I juggled building up my own business with the demands of a very stressful full-time career, before leaving the NHS over seven years ago to concentrate on running my own therapy business full time. I have never looked back.

After building up my own business in Oxfordshire, it was time for a change.  In 2020, my husband and I moved to rural Herefordshire, where despite the challenges that lockdown brought us, we created and built The Therapy Shed.

It was important to me that my cabin should have a calm and welcoming vibe and be surrounded by nature.  The large windows overlook apple trees and a garden filled wildlife.  Clients may also enjoy a guest appearance from one of my cats or my spaniel.

I specialise in The Bowen Technique (a fabulous gentle remedial therapy which is great for muscular skeletal problems, pain conditions, hormone balance as well as emotional issues), MSTR (a scar release technique which can address pain, tightness and altered sensations associated with scar tissue) and Reflexology (deeply relaxing and stress busting). 

I qualified earlier this year as a Touch for Health Kinesiologist, a form of energy healing, and I find this modality absolutely fascinating, particularly when working with it to support emotional health.

I also offer a range of holistic treatments aimed to increase relaxation and boost well-being, including Facial Reflexology and Reiki.

My approach is simple – I tailor each treatment to your individual needs with the aim of helping you to feel better.   I am grateful for my loyal client base and love introducing people to the benefits of a holistic treatment.

I look forward to welcoming you to my beautiful Therapy Shed.

  • The Therapy Shed is such a lovely, calming space with large windows onto Rachel's beautiful garden...and Rachel has a wonderful presence about her so you immediately feel at ease.

  • Rachel has been an absolute angel to me over the past few years. Always ready to help heal the best way possible, which changes each time. Positive support, super caring and accommodating, couldn't recommend higher!

  • My multiple visits with Rachel over the last 6+ months have confirmed to me that she is not only a very skilled therapist but really is a genuinely lovely person that has the ability to make you feel at ease and calm before even laying a finger on you.
