I will meet you where you are
A place to stop, breathe, be heard, and give your body a little space.
Over the years my work has grown to support people through all sorts of stages and experiences in life. Holistic Woman grew from that work, and while women are still at its heart, men and children are very welcome too.
Whether you're trying to conceive, pregnant or a new mum, moving through menopause, living with or after cancer, neurodivergent, grieving, or simply running on empty, so much of what you're carrying isn't just physical. You don't have to explain all of that to me.
Welcome to my world...
Unhurried, and entirely yours
What every session with me looks like, whichever treatment you choose.
Your body leads. It's your body doing the releasing, not me.
My treatments sit alongside your GP, midwife or clinic, never instead of them.
Support through every season of life
Gentle Release, including my vagus nerve work, is where many people start. It's fully clothed, very gentle and led by your body, which is why it suits so many people at so many different stages.
Read the booklet, An Invitation to Gentle ReleaseBroken sleep, shifting moods and a body that can suddenly feel unfamiliar. A quiet hour that is just for you.
Gentle, fully clothed sessions that sit alongside your treatment and recovery, at whatever pace feels right.
Calm, predictable sessions with no pressure to talk or make eye contact. Vagus nerve work is at the heart of these sessions.
For when you've been running on empty for so long that it has started to feel normal.
Space to be with whatever you're carrying, at your own pace, including the loss of a pregnancy or baby.
Short, gentle sessions for little ones and young people, with a parent close by.
Ways we can work together
Every session is shaped around you, and what your body is ready for at that moment in time.

More than appointments and protocols
Your fertility journey is about far more than tests and treatment plans. When you come to me, we have time to look at the whole picture, and I'll fit sessions around your clinic's timings, whether you're preparing for IVF or right in the middle of a cycle.
I've been there myself. It took us five years, and IVF, before our daughter arrived.
Fertility & IVF support
Hello, I'm Helen
My life changed in 2011, when I left a career as a traffic engineer to train in complementary therapies. Over the years my work has grown to support people through all sorts of stages in life, with women's health and fertility still close to my heart.
I work intuitively and let the body lead. I'm also the founder of Gentle Release Therapy, which I now teach to practitioners in the UK and internationally.
