Shireen was first introduced to Complementary Therapy through meeting a Reflexologist whilst training as an Adult Nurse at Oxford Brookes in 2002. It inspired her to want to learn about the preventative perspective of health care and how it was just, if not more, important in helping and educating others’ in dis-ease and health.
Shireen trained in a Complementary Therapies Diploma at the City of Bath College and qualified in 2006. She also qualified as a Traditional Thai Master practitioner Diploma in 2008 at the Highly esteemed Body Harmonics Centre in Cheltenham. As an experienced holistic practitioner Shireen is continually developing her skills and furthering her knowledge in holistic health and nutrition through reading, research, attending talks and workshops and has a deep, extensive knowledge and understanding of the human body through various studies and nursing. Shireen’s practice aim is to tailor each treatment as acutely as possible to address the specific problem areas. This can be achieved through incorporating different massage disciplines, giving a uniquely synergistic and individual treatment.

I’ve been working as a holistic therapist for over 5 years now, specialising in reiki and reflexology. My personal healing journey started when I was recovering from a cycling accident and hip surgery. Seeking deeper healing than what was just offered on the conventional route, I realized that recovery was also linked to mental, energetic, emotional and my spiritual self, thus I learned to self-heal through my reiki, energy healing journey and reflexology. I’m now trained at level 3 reiki or master/teacher level, although reiki has a habit of being the master of my life these days! Through my years of practice I’ve been able to attune to releasing trauma and past life traumas for clients which are stored in our energy fields and in turn can lead to dis-ease, discomfort and health conditions. Limiting self-belief systems and self-narratives learnt in childhood can also affect our energetic fields and cause dense energy build-ups and blockages in the body’s systems. Through reiki/energy healing sessions, the flow of energy can be restored and rebalanced throughout the energetic, emotional , mental and physical bodies. I also incorporate elemental/nature and crystal energies into my practices where guided to.
Training as a reflexologist, I wanted to acquire a deeper knowledge of the physical but also the mental and emotional connections in the body and its systems. Currently specialising in the Vagus nerve (Mindful) reflexology, which is a deeply relaxing and restorative treatment. Each of us lead busy lives at times and in this modern world we can often get stuck in the fight and flight (anxiety and stress) of everyday life situations. The Vagus nerve reflexology can help to calm the body’s organs and nervous system to a place of homeostasis, relaxation and balance. Frequently our bodies can come under unnecessary duress, which affects our holistic mental, physical, emotional and energetic wellbeing. I’m grateful to be able to facilitate healing and support anyone that chooses to undertake their individual healing journey and a firm believer that our bodies are more than capable of self-healing through the healing practices.

Since I first trained as a holistic therapist, I have constantly updated my skill and knowledge. Now I offer a wide range of holistic treatments and, depending on your needs or conditions I carefully choose your treatment plan with you. All my treatments are tailor made to ensure you have a truly holistic experience.
I use combinations of different techniques for my massages which allow me to range from a firm pressure to a delicate touch, which helps to release the tension seated in any depth of tissue.
I have an extensive knowledge of aromatherapy and use this for my treatments. Aromatherapy and holistic treatments work wonderfully together and I take pride in this combination which helps not only reduce physical problems but may also bring emotional relief as well. My treatments are always based on ‘de-stressing’ and you can feel both physically and mentally lighter after my treatment.
Maternity and gynaecological care also feature heavily in my range of treatments. My extensive training in this field brings a deep understanding of the needs of women and enables me to extend my treatments to help with hormonal, physical and emotional changes for any stages of women’s life.

I am an experienced kinesiology practitioner, certified by the Kinesiology Association. After kinesiology helped to get to the root of my son’s health issues over 10 years ago, I decided to change careers and train as a kinesiologist myself. I am a firm believer in the power of the body to heal itself when it is rebalanced and given the right tools and help.
My aim is to empower people to regain control of their health and to provide the appropriate support to help you do this. My recommendations and guidance may include lifestyle changes, taking nutritional supplements and/or flower remedies, eliminating certain foods from your diet, etc.
I see all clients but particularly enjoy working with children and young people and seeing how they and their families benefit from kinesiology. I make sure children’s sessions are informal, relaxed and fun!
Some of the health issues I have helped people with include: stress and anxiety, digestive disorders, back pain, migraines, low energy, low immunity, depression, eczema, asthma, learning difficulties, menopausal symptoms, weight loss/gain.
Feel free to contact me before you book an appointment. I am happy to talk either on the phone or face-to-face to see how kinesiology and/or reiki might help you or your child.

Lucy Peel
Lucy works with various naturopathic therapies to help get your body back into balance. Naturopathy is a very holistic therapy as all aspects of a person are considered, including the emotional, mental and physical.
Lucy graduated from the University of Westminster with a first-class honours degree in Naturopathy in 2010 and with a Masters in Nutritional Therapy in 2017. As part of her studies she learnt about naturopathic nutrition, detoxing and cleansing, therapeutic massage, lymphatic cleansing, naturopathic hydrotherapy, Bach Flower remedies and other fascinating natural health knowledge that everyone should know about! She has also completed her yoga teacher training which she incorporates into her therapeutic plans where appropriate.
Lucy has always been interested in complementary medicine, particularly the effects food can have on mood. She discovered Naturopathy when living in Australia in her mid-20s and a few years later took the plunge into returning to university and retraining. She is also a Reiki level 2 practitioner which she incorporates into her naturopathic practice.
Her approach in practice is very holistic, exploring the mental/emotional, physical and biochemical aspects of a person and how this will be affecting their health. Her treatment plans are based on this holistic approach and she really enjoys working with her patients to encourage them to make the changes that are achievable for them.
Lucy is registered with the General Council and Register of Naturopaths and is fully insured to practice.
