INTUITIVE HOLISTIC THERAPIST – Advanced Precision Reflexologist, Aromatherapist, Bodyworker & Massage Therapist and a Certified Reiki Master Practitioner.

Mobile To Home/Workplace In Bristol Areas. Fully qualified, accredited and insured.

If you were drawn here – welcome. I look forward to working with you.

I am an intuitive healer and practitioner with a biomedical science background. I offer:

  • Precision Reflexology
  • Reiki Master Practitioner
  • Massage and Bodywork
  • Indian Head Massage
  • Cupping
  • Lymph Drainage and Myofacial release techniques
  • and much more

What to expect from me:

I connect to each client on an energetic level.  I am passionate about the mind/body/spirit connection and psychology – and spent years studying what influences our wellbeing and how subtle changes can have profound effects on our behaviour and therefore overall wellbeing. As a Holistic Therapist I aim to treat you on all levels, to release physical and emotional pain and tension and restore balance. 

I am mobile to your home or workplace. I have a luxury extra-large massage table (with heated underblanket in the Winter).  I make up bespoke oil blends for each treatment, using quality essential oils.

I am one of the few Precision Reflexologists in the UK. I specialise in general back, neck, hip and knee pain; also post-partum hip/back issues and Somatic emotional release using Precision Reflexology, Chinese Acupressure points and Reiki.  

Precision Reflexology is Advanced Reflexology – connecting with the client on an energetic level, linking the body systems and energy meridians to work more precisely on individual clients – a form of energy healing, working together using your body’s innate healing ability.

I also use Reiki in my Massage techniques to aid the stimulation of acupressure points on the meridians and rebalance the flow of energy. I aim to relax tense muscles using whatever technique is appropriate for each client – without leaving you feeling sore for days afterwards. Previously I used my elbows and forearms to sort out knots and tense muscles, but thought there must be a better way to do it than leaving clients sore and in pain. If muscle are tense they are already stretched – it didn’t make sense to me to stretch them further and cause more pain. My technique has been honed over years of research and practical application – leaving you knot-free, but also pain-free.

Some clients in pain can benefit more from Precision Reflexology than Massage, as the actual area can be too painful to work. Working on the reflex points on the feet enables me to manipulate that area much easier and with less pain than if I touched the area on your body. I few seconds of pain on your feet can be hours of relief on your body. This is good for frozen shoulder, stiff neck and similar issues.

If you’ve never had Reflexology before, this can be hard to believe. But trust me, when your pain is gone – you don’t care how I did it, just that I did.

Some feedback from my lovely clients…

I have been using Caroline services for quite some time now and every treatment I have received from her it’s been amazing!

Caroline is a bit witchy, in a very good healer way. I completely felt at ease and the reflexology/Reiki was very powerful. It was just bliss.

I was skeptical about Reflexology, but Caroline said to give it a go. I love her massages so tried it.  Wow, amazing!  Sorted out my shoulder in one session and to be honest I think better than a massage would, as left me with no soreness at all. Bloody brilliant!
