When your body is carrying something your mind hasn’t yet understood.

Your body has its own language. It responds to everything you move through: stress, change, loss, pressure, joy, including the things you don't always have words for.

How it shows up

The body speaks before the mind catches up

Sometimes life speaks to us through the body long before the mind catches up. In twenty years of this work, Prue has seen it arrive in the same handful of ways:

Exhaustion that rest doesn’t fix

You sleep, you take the weekend off, you come back tired anyway. The kind of depletion that isn’t really about sleep.

Exhaustion that rest doesn’t fix

You sleep, you take the weekend off, you come back tired anyway. The kind of depletion that isn’t really about sleep.

Tension that won’t let go

Shoulders up around your ears, a jaw that won’t unclench, a body permanently braced for something. Holding on has become your default setting.

Shoulders up around your ears, a jaw that won’t unclench, a body permanently braced for something. Holding on has become your default setting.

Nights your mind won’t switch off

Restless sleep, 3am spirals, waking more tired than you went to bed. Your body is trying to process something it hasn’t been given space for.

Thinking in circles

A decision you keep turning over, a situation you replay endlessly. All that thinking, and clarity never comes, because the answer isn’t in your head.

Grief, or a heaviness you can’t name

A loss, an ending, a hard season, or simply a weight you’ve been carrying so long you’ve stopped noticing it’s there.

The sense that a chapter is ending

Nothing is dramatically wrong, but something is quietly over. You’ve outgrown a life, a role, a way of being, and your body knew first.

What makes this different

Not a spa treatment. Not a standard sequence.

Before you arrive, Prue spends time with your birth chart and records a short personal overview of the themes most alive in your life right now, so the session begins before you’re anywhere near the table.

Once you’re there, she works with where your body actually is that day: not simply where it feels tight or tired, but where energy may be held, where emotions may have become stuck, and where something may be asking to be released, acknowledged or understood. Each session follows its own path.

This work is not about fixing you. It’s about creating the conditions for you to hear yourself again, because beneath the noise, the pressure and other people’s expectations, there is a deeper knowing. Sometimes all we need is the space to reconnect with it.

Who comes

The body has been holding the conversation all along

Some people arrive carrying grief, and some arrive simply exhausted. Some are standing at a crossroads and don’t know which way to turn; others come to mark a moment, a birthday, the end of a hard year, the start of a new chapter, with real care rather than just cake. And some come because they know, without being able to explain it, that they can’t carry on as they have been. What most of them discover is the same thing: the body has been holding the conversation all along.

“Prue has an inner calmness which immediately makes you feel at ease, enabling you to fully benefit from her wonderful holistic personalised treatments.”

About Prue

The work I was born for

Before this work, Prue had another life, a PR career in London that looked right on paper and quietly wore her down, an escape that took her from Thai classrooms to the foothills of the Himalayas, and a difficult return home that taught her the lesson she now passes on to every client: you’re not behind, you’re exactly where you’re meant to be. Twenty years of bodywork, healing and astrology later, this is the work she was born for.

Testimonials

In their words

Real words from people who have worked with Prue.

I have been having regular holistic treatments with Prue for over four years and I really look forward to my massage and reflexology. Prue guides each session according to my needs and she always reminds me that this is 'my time!' Prue uses the most delicious oils depending whether I want to be relaxed and sleepy or energetic. I could honestly stay in that moment as I love her massages so much and I always thank her for her kindness and thoughtfulness and care. Prue is a very special person indeed.

I've been coming to Prue for 2 years through sickness and health, she is wonderful in every way. If you need a straight massage that's what you'll get, if you want spiritual guidance that's there too. She gives the most beautiful, caring sessions I have had. She's firmly one of my well-being team, I would be lost without her.

When I met Prue 3 years ago my life was in a complete mess. My anxiety was sky high and I could just about pluck up the courage to leave my front door. With Reiki, Massage and Spiritual Counselling, Prue has changed my life. Her professional but gentle and mindful approach to our sessions are what makes them so personal and special. Today I am so much clearer on my path, calmer and hugely more confident than I was before I met her.

Having been lucky enough to have had many treatments with Prue, each and every one has created a different and wonderful experience. Her holistic and bespoke approach has enabled me to feel fully invigorated or wholly relaxed, but most importantly very well cared for. A body and mind fuel that I am thankful to have whenever possible.

Prue is simply wonderful! I have been seeing her for holistic treatments for years and would thoroughly recommend her to everyone. Prue always makes you feel extremely comfortable and has such a welcoming and caring manner. Time with Prue always feels so special and you leave feeling so much better and so much more relaxed. She also has a lot of insight to share from her wealth of experience which I really appreciate

I consider myself incredibly fortunate to have found Prue, by chance, when I moved to the area, some 8 years ago. Having experienced many excellent bodyworkers previously, I knew that I had found someone very special, Prue's bodywork is second to none. However, what I have come to know is that Prue is a truly exceptional and giving healer. She has so many teachings at her fingertips, and a deep understanding of mind, body, spirit connections which she incorporates seamlessly. Every treatment is tailored to your specific needs on the day, including selecting the most appropriate essential oils. Prue continues to be an integral part of my own healing journey and, if you are looking for an authentic gifted holistic healer (or are just in need of a fabulous massage!) then I would urge you to look no further.

For the past 20 years I have been to different massage and reflexology therapists throughout the world and from my experience I know what is good. I can say without hesitation that Prue's treatments are first class if not world class. Every minute spent with her is like someone pressing the release button on life's pressure valve. She's relieved so many ailments for me from post-natal depression to post marathon injuries. God only know where I'd be without her.
