Reflexologist for Women's Health in Saffron Walden, Essex and Cambridge

Stress, Insomnia and Anxiety Relief, Pregnancy, Fertility and Peri/Menopause Support.


Are you feeling overwhelmed?

Stress often results from juggling a busy work and home life - or you may have other caring responsibilities. Or perhaps you're struggling with a health condition that is causing you extra difficulty?

Reflexology is a very gentle and calming holistic therapy that is suitable for all age groups. Each soothing session encourages deep relaxation and will help you to unwind and escape from the stress and pressure of everyday life.

Treatments may help in the management of many different health complaints including Back and Joint Pain, Digestive Issues, including IBS and Insomnia.

As a Women's Health Reflexologist - with over 23 years experience - I'd love to help optimise YOUR wellbeing, whatever stage of life you're at...

Fertility Issues may trigger a myriad of emotions and high levels of stress may negatively affect the ability to conceive. But reflexology can be the perfect way to relieve stress and ease the anxiety you may be feeling. Treatment sessions will help you to unwind fully and may encourage natural hormone balance and regulation of the menstrual cycle. Reflexology can also help prepare you for diagnostic procedures and Assisted Conception (including IVF). I'm here to provide a listening ear and to support you - whatever your fertility journey.

Pregnancy may cause discomforts such as Nausea, Constipation, Back and Pelvic Pain and Mood Swings. Treatments may help to bring relief and will be a nurturing experience, allowing you some peaceful time to connect with your little one. I'd love to help you prepare for the best possible birthing experience and you can find out more here.

Peri/Menopause may bring numerous challenging symptoms including Hot Flushes, Increased Anxiety, Brain Fog and Sleep Disturbance. Reflexology sessions help to ease increased anxiety and provide quality restorative time - allowing mind and body to rebalance. Treatments are particularly suitable if you're keen on a natural approach to the menopause transition and I can provide holistic tips that have worked for me! Reflexology also works well alongside HRT and provides additional calming support.


"Clare is just wonderful and provides so much more than a simple reflexology session... she looks at your overall health and guides you in the right direction for any problems you might have with detailed advice. Could not recommend more highly, always float out after a session!"

Ilse L.

    Reflexology Treatments Available

    Reflexology for Menopause sessions may help if you’re navigating the menopausal transition. My own perimenopause challenges inspired me to carry out additional reflexology training and I love being able to support clients throughout this time.

    Maternity Reflexology may help to address many common pregnancy issues including Morning Sickness, Insomnia and Anxiety. Treatments help to relax mind and body and will help you to prepare for labour. Postnatal sessions help to restore natural balance after the birth of your little one.

    Reflexology for Fertility sessions may help if you're planning to start a family or are trying to conceive. Perhaps you’ve had a diagnosis of Unexplained Infertility, or are struggling with Endometriosis or PCOS?

    Reflexology can be gently supportive - whatever your fertility journey - and prepare you for Assisted Conception, including IVF.

    Facial Reflexology is a soothing treatment with all the wonderful benefits of foot reflexology, but especially suitable if you find it difficult to switch off a busy brain! It’ll boost blood circulation and lymphatic drainage, bringing a radiant natural glow to the complexion.

    Zone Face Lift includes all of the above but is a more intensive rejuvenating treatment, that uses massage and the use of specialist tools to target fine lines and 'lift' and sculpt the face.

    Both of these facial treatments are a wonderful way to boost your wellbeing and restore confidence - which may be especially beneficial during the menopausal years.

    Perimenopause and Menopause


    *Research has shown that reflexology can reduce vasomotor symptoms (hot flushes/night sweats) and help improve the quality of life for menopausal women

    * (E. Gozuyesil, M. Baser, Complement Ther Clin Pract. 2016 Aug;24:78-85. doi: 10.1016/j.ctcp.2016.05.011. Epub 2016 May)


    Hot Flushes, Increased Anxiety or Brain Fog?

    Menopause can be a time of great emotional upheaval and may create many physical challenges too…

    There are numerous symptoms that may occur during Perimenopause, including:

    • Irregular or missed periods
    • Scant or heavy flow
    • Hot flushes
    • Night sweats
    • Insomnia
    • Bloating
    • Loss of libido
    • Brain fog

    • Strange body odour
    • Vaginal dryness
    • Dry eyes/mouth/skin
    • Hair thinning and loss
    • Stress incontinence
    • Anxiety
    • Low mood
    • Lack of confidence


    Symptoms may fluctuate, but are seen as a normal part of the ageing process and if you’re over 40, declining hormone levels are usually the cause.

    Reflexology has been shown to relieve stress so it's a great way to ease the anxiety you may be feeling.

    Lifestyle choices have a considerable impact on symptoms and during your initial consultation we’ll explore beneficial changes you can make that could make a difference.

    Reflexology works very well alongside Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) and provides additional calming support.

    If you feel that your quality of life is being severely affected, I'd encourage you to talk to your GP to discuss all of your treatment options.

    Reflexology treatments during Menopause may help to:
  • Promote restful sleep
  • Encourage deep relaxation
  • Relieve anxiety
  • Reduce hot flushes and night sweats
  • Lift low mood
  • Enhance overall wellbeing

    Reflexology for Fertility


    Struggling to conceive?

    It can sometimes take even a healthy couple up to twelve months to conceive.

    So if you’re feeling anxious because things haven’t happened for you just yet, why not give reflexology a try?

    Stress may have a negative impact upon the entire reproductive process and the deep relaxation that reflexology provides can help ease tension and naturally relieve stress.

    Treatments can be especially beneficial if you’re undergoing Assisted Conception, providing support through each stage of your IVF cycle.

    Over my 15 years as a Fertility Reflexologist, I’ve been delighted with so many happy outcomes!

    Reflexology may help enhance fertility by:
  • Relieving anxiety
  • Reducing stress hormones
  • Promoting better sleep
  • Lifting low mood
  • Supporting Assisted Conception (IVF, ICSI, FET)

    Welcome. pregnancy-3-he

    Maternity Reflexology


    * Research has shown that regular reflexology treatments in the later stage of pregnancy may lead to women requiring less pain relief and having faster birthing times

    * G. Motha and J. McGrath - 1992 "The effects of reflexology on labour outcome".


    Reflexology can be a wonderful way to relax and connect with your little one...

    Treatments are a nurturing experience for any mum-to-be and will allow you to have some much-needed relaxation time during pregnancy.

    Reflexology may also help ease common discomforts including Nausea/Morning Sickness, Constipation, Heartburn/Acid Reflex and Pelvic Girdle Pain.

    Pregnancy Reflexology treatments may help by:
  • Promoting better sleep
  • Easing physical discomfort
  • Preparing you physically and emotionally for labour
  • Relieving muscular tension - towards the end of pregnancy this may encourage the natural onset of labour

    Welcome. smiling-woman-he

    Balancing Hormones


    As women, we’re governed by hormones that will fluctuate throughout our lives.

    The action of hormones causes powerful changes within the body that may sometimes cause a condition that may make conception more difficult:

  • Irregular Menstruation (infrequent/absent periods)
  • Dysmenorrhea (painful periods)
  • PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome)
  • Endometriosis
  • Adenomyosis


    Reflexology may help by:
  • Easing muscular tension - helping to reduce pain
  • Calming cortisol production - encouraging natural hormone balance
  • Promoting deep relaxation
  • Lifting low mood


    Feedback from affected clients, who have attended regular reflexology sessions has shown:
  • Reduced PMS
  • Regulation of the menstrual cycle
  • More condensed menstrual flow
  • Reduced bloating
  • Improved mood
