Testimonials
"Monthly visits for reflexology have become my treat to myself. I would highly recommend Catherine, although my experience of other therapists for different treatments have been as equally professional and knowledgeable.
Reflexology has made such a difference to my sore aching feet and back. I've been totally amazed. Even better, through my health plan I receive half my payments back so bonus.....even more lovely treatments for me. If you're not sure about having a treatment ring them first, the staff will put your mind at ease, answer any questions and give you advice on the best treatment for you.
Given the restrictions due to COVID 19 I felt completely safe with the measures in place."
