Vicky Beaton  ITEC, MAR - I am a fully trained therapist with over 20 year’s experience, an Aromatherapist, Reflexologist, and offer holistic La Phyto facials.I am a member of The Association of Reflexologists. I also offer Vertical Reflexology (VRT) that I incorporate into treatment. This is applied when the client is standing for a few minutes and reflexes are worked on at the top of the foot, allowing deeper access to the body’s meridians, providing access to many new reflex points that stimulate the immune system and calf reflexes to help ease back pain and chest congestion. I studied with Lynne Booth in Bristol who discovered this method. I have studied lymphatic drainage massage for Reflexologists and incorporate this into my treatment when necessary and recently trained in Ear Reflexology. I also offer La Phyto facials this is a totally natural range of French skin care product and treatments. La Phyto is based on Chinese Medicine, Reflexology and colour therapy. I felt drawn to these facials as they are more than skin deep. Their aim is to restore natural balance and promote the body’s own healing process.I have worked with social services massaging carers.

Lotty Merry  reg.ESEBT,cert ECBS,MBTER, ITEC dip,I am a qualified Equine and Human Bowen Therapist. I also did Swedish Massage through ITEC, I am discovering Bowen is an amazingly effective therapy, with a mounting number of very successful cases.Although my ultimate aim is to predominantly treat horses, the more humans I treat the more I can see the benefits of treating both.  So many horses are limited by their owners and vice versa.  How many times have you seen horses blamed for being one sided when their riders are themselves stiff in the shoulders, back, pelvis, knees etc.By treating both together it is possible to reduce the stress put on both, allowing them to use themselves correctly.This in turn builds up the correct muscles and eliminates the need for either to compensate.I treat clients anywhere within a 50 mile radius of Glastonbury.
