Why I do the work

I’m fascinated with the way our bodies work and I love helping people learn about theirs and find more freedom of movement.



What makes me different

Training courses for complementary therapies are like holidays for me, I love learning different ways to help our bodies out of pain and dysfunction. During a treatment I may blend any technique that I have learnt to support you on your journey of more pain free movement. Offering both hands on therapy as well as yoga, which is very much a self help way forward



What clients come for

Help to relax, unwind and learn about their bodies using Craniosacral techniques

Myofascial release, usually aided by Hot stones, to help soften and release stuck tissue and increase range of movement

Scar work – old or new scars can be restrictive and can be helped to soften

Somato-Emototional release work ( releasing trauma either physical and emotional held within the tissue

Face and jaw problems



Offering

Structural alignment with Myofascial release with hot stones

Scar work

Cranio sacral therapy and somatoemotional release

TMJ (Jaw related) therapy

EMMETT therapy



Fun facts

Fav EO blend by Doterra called ‘Air’ -

Tea – I’m a chain tea drinking given the chance

What helps me unwind – being in, on, under or next to water



The most silly thing.

Obsessed with Phenology - the first sighting of something in nature that year – Frog spawn ticks all my boxes,

Ann has been part of our journey since 2017, bringing warmth, kindness and calm to The Health Barn from the very beginning.

She’s the friendly face that welcomes you in, the reassuring voice on the phone, and the steady presence that helps everything run smoothly behind the scenes.

We’ve had a flurry of new followers recently so we thought we’d reintroduce ourselves again and let you know where The Health Barn came from and where we are now.

We know how fortunate we are doing what we love and serving so many amazing people, surrounded by such a love (slightly bonkers, in a good way) extremely talented and knowledgeable therapists.

In the following post we will be shining a spotlight on our team, long standing and new faces, giving you a little more info about who they are and their stories.

Mother’s Day

Today we celebrate the mothers, grandmothers and nurturing figures who bring care, wisdom and kindness into our lives. The quiet supporters, the encouragers, the ones who hold everything together.

We also hold space for those for whom today feels different — those missing a mother, remembering someone they’ve lost, navigating complex relationships, or longing to become a parent.

However today feels for you, we’re sending warmth and kindness your way.

May you find a moment to rest, breathe and be gentle with yourself.

With love from all of us at The Health Barn

Erchonia low-level laser therapy uses gentle light energy to support the body’s natural healing processes at a cellular level.

The light helps stimulate mitochondrial activity, encouraging cells to produce more energy (ATP), which can assist with tissue repair and recovery.

When applied to bruised areas, this photobiomodulation may help reduce inflammation, support healthy circulation, and encourage the body to clear pooled blood and damaged tissue more efficiently.

Many people find it can help bruises settle more quickly while also easing tenderness and promoting comfortable healing.
