Garden Room Reflexology

Hi all my lovely clients and friends, it's with a certain amount of sadness that I have to let you know that I'm retiring from Reflexology at the end of this month. I had a dreadful year last year after the loss of my husband and now feel that I need to take time for myself, to heal and to move forward. I've loved and cherished every treatment I've done over the past 29 years and have felt privileged to have been given the opportunity to help you. And thank you for all your friendship and kindness. I am truly blessed for having met you all.

With much love and hugs,

Barbara xx

Hi all, hope you're all safe and well. Unfortunately I won't be opening up for treatments this side of New Year due to family issues but I hope that you all have a really magical Christmas with those you love and that 2021 will be a kinder year for all of us. With much love and hugs # # #

I want to age like sea glass.
Smoothed by tides,
but not broken.
I want my hard edges to soften.
I want to ride the waves
and go with the flow.
I want to catch a wave
and let it carry me
to where I belong.
I want to be picked up
and held gently by
those who delight in my
well earned patina and
appreciate the changes I went
through to achieve that beauty.
I want to enjoy the journey
and always remember that if
you give the ocean something
breakable it will turn it into
something beautiful.
I want to age like sea glass.

It’s been a while since I wrote an update here but I hope that everyone has managed to stay safe and well. It’s been a really tough time for many people and my heart goes out to anyone who has been affected by this awful virus. I’ve had the privilege of helping some of my clients with Bach Flower Remedies, gently easing the emotional burden of the last few months. The remedies help so much to untangle the barrage of feelings that we’ve all been facing.
However, at last, I’m now able to start Reflexology treatments again, having ensured that my treatment room is Covid-19 secure, that I’m wearing PPE and spacing out the appointments to keep you all safe.
Please do call or email if you would like to make an appointment. It’s been a long road but I’m so looking forward to seeing my lovely clients again!

Hi lovely people, I recently qualified as a Bach Flower Remedy Practitioner and would like to offer consultations by Skype for anyone who is struggling to deal with this very unusual situation. Bach Flower Remedies work on the emotional level and can assist in dealing with stress and anxiety in these difficult times. Please do message me if this is something that I can help you with. Keep safe and well # # #

It's with a heavy heart that I have to close my practice and adhere to the Government guidelines during this dreadful Coronavirus epidemic. To all my lovely clients, stay safe and I will re-open once the restrictions can be lifted. Much love to you all xx

Merry Christmas to all my lovely clients. Have a peaceful time and here's to a blessed New Year. 🙏 X # # #

Hi all, I just want to share a very happy and encouraging story with you. It’s a bit long-winded but bear with me ....
I was recently treating a lady who had been told that she had diminished ovarian reserve. She’d had 3 cycles of IVF which hadn’t worked and was preparing for her fourth. She was having the next cycle in Greece and after a blood test, was told that she had a deep seated infection which could have been there for a long time, hence the inability to conceive. She was given a very intensive course of antibiotics and we worked together for quite a while. Her IVF cycle was successful but she miscarried at 8 weeks, mainly due to stress in her life – break-up with her partner, working long night shifts – oh and I forgot to say she was a midwife – double whammy!
She decided to accept her situation, came to me for more treatments, mainly to stabilise her system and then we kept in touch for chats and the occasional treatment.
However, last year she sent me a scan picture; she was 12 weeks pregnant naturally!! As you can imagine it was a fairly emotional phone call and I’m so pleased to say that she gave birth to a beautiful 7lb 9oz baby boy last Saturday. She’s more than happy to share her story as she wants to give hope to all those ladies who are on the wrong side of 35 and diagnosed with DOR. She was told that she would never have a child naturally but here’s the proof that she could. She very generously included me as part of her journey as she felt that Reproflexology had not only helped her system to reset but emotionally she felt more in control.
Getting news like this makes me realise just how much I love my job!
