Who I Am and What I Do

About Me

 

Hi, my name is Jo! 

I have been working within the massage and beauty industry for the past 20 years. I have always had a love and fascination for all things complementary, specifically reflexology.  It is a fantastic treatment with so many benefits to overall wellbeing. I was first introduced to reflexology over 15 years ago when I was a case study for a fellow student. I began having regular reflexology treatments from 2012 whilst experiencing hormonal imbalances linked to my recurrent miscarriages. I felt the treatments helped bring balance back to my body. It also helped me emotionally during such a stressful time in my life. It was during this time that I made the decision to become a reflexologist myself when the time was right. I loved my training at Cotswold Academy and came away with a passion for the treatment and its many benefits, which I can now share with my own clients.  

​

When I'm not working I enjoy walking in our beautiful countryside, Pilates and relaxing with a cup of coffee in a  local café. Most of all though, I love spending time with my husband and two young daughters.

​

I am a member of the Federation of Holistic Therapists and the Association of Reflexologists, Holding full insurance with Hiscox.. 

​

My Qualifications

I qualified as a massage and beauty therapist at Cotswold Academy back in 2003, running a mobile business for 10 years, After a short break to have a family I returned to the Academy to study for a level 3 diploma in Reflexology. I qualified with distinction in 2023.

About Reflexology:

Reflexology is a wonderful treatment, which aims to bring balance back to your body and mind. Our feet mirror our bodies, therefore all organs of the body have corresponding reflex points on the feet. By working on these points we can gently help to unblock the area to bring balance back, enabling the body to start healing itself and thus work more effectively. 

​

Benefits of reflexology:

there are many benefits to having reflexology, these include:

• Neutralises and prevents the effects of stress by releasing calming endorphins, creating a state of deep relaxation.

• Helps to improve circulation around the body.

• Aids in detoxing the body by improving the flow of lymph. 

• Boosts the immune system by removing harmful toxins.

• creates an anti-inflammatory response which helps ease any aches and pains within the body.

What can you expect from a treatment?

Your treatment will begin with a medical history and lifestyle consultation, this will enable me to tailor your treatment to meet your needs..

I shall bring all that is needed for a relaxing treatment, including a reclining chair, stool, trolly, oils and blankets.. Once you are comfortable in the chair the treatment will begin. I will work all reflexes during the treatment in order to bring the most balance. A relaxation routine will be carried out at the start and finish of all treatments. The aim is for you to be left feeling relaxed and rejuvenated by the end of the treatment.
