About

Hi, I’m Debbie — a holistic therapist based in South Bristol.  I offer Reflexology, Indian Head Massage and Facial Massage to support nervous system regulation, emotional wellbeing, and gentle restoration.

I work with people who are navigating anxiety, overwhelm, and big life transitions. This might include pregnancy, recovery from illness, grief or loss, or simply coming to terms with ageing. In these moments, it’s easy to feel disconnected from your body, your sense of calm, or your capacity to cope.

Many of my clients are neurodivergent, or are parents to neurodivergent children.  I offer a space where you don’t have to mask, explain or hold it all together. Everyone is welcome as they are.

My sessions draw on 15 years’ experience and are shaped by nervous system and somatic approaches to wellbeing, including Polyvagal Theory.  The focus is on helping your body feel safe again. Unwind stored stress, build resilience, and reconnect with your own inner rhythm.

This approach is also reflected in my holistic facial massage practice. Using gentle, anatomy-informed techniques to release built up emotional tension in the tissues, the sessions support a natural softening that leaves you looking and feeling refreshed, grounded, and at ease.

At the heart of my practice is a commitment to making environmentally-conscious choices. I use gentle, natural products free from SLS and parabens, and prioritise local suppliers, reusable products and sustainable materials wherever possible.

Clients often describe my sessions as intuitive, grounding and emotionally supportive — a mix of relaxation, release and body/mind reset.

If you’re looking for gentle, natural support to help you feel more at ease in your body and your life, I’m here whenever you’re ready.
