If you’re thinking about starting Pilates, this is a good place to begin.

• Monday 10.45am – 2 spaces
• Tuesday 7pm – 1 space

New classes:
• Thursday 6pm
• Friday 9.30am

Message me if you’d like to book, try a class or would like to ask me anything.

I was recently asked by a client if I could offer a yoga class that she could come to straight after work.
So I’ve added a 6pm Wednesday evening class.

To launch it, tonight’s class is free for anyone who’d like to try it and see if it might work for them on a weekly basis.

The class will be run by our very lovely Nikki, and it will take place in the Well Retreat Studios.

If you’re free this evening and see this before 6pm, just drop me a message and I’ll get you booked in.
You can also book via the Events section of the website if that’s easier.

I’d really love to see you there.
And if you ever have ideas about how I could help you move more, or feel more well, I’m always open to hearing them.

The wait is over….. our most popular seasonal special is returning for ❄️

⚠️ Don’t read on unless you are willing to be tempted ⚠️

Our seasonal special is on the menu for the winter and it's been named 'Cocooned'. You will be enveloped on our heated massage couch with soft blankets and the furs are spritzed by our aromatic linen spray, 'Downtime'.

You'll be warmed with hot stones and a luxurious blend of essential oils specially selected by our clinical aromatherapist for this treatment, that boost your circulation and release tension. You will lay in a darkened room as you listen to the sound of winter on our playlist.❄️

The massage strokes will be gentle yet tension releasing, ironing out stress and inviting in relaxation. Warm stones will be placed strateqically around the body to draw the mind to warmth and comfort. The scalp massage will distract the mind from the busyness of the season. Just when you don't think it could get better, the therapist will gently stretch the muscles that have been released so that there is no effort at all to lie on the couch. 💤

This treatment, the blend, the hygge of it all.... It's an hour of PURE BLISS

Book your treatment through the website or message me and I’ll get you booked in

January can quietly drain energy.
The days feel long, the month feels even longer, and the darker weeks can feel like a bit of a slog.

This is a daytime magnesium we stock at The Well Retreat.

It contains magnesium malate and citrate, along with active B6 and B12, nutrients that are commonly associated with energy metabolism, muscle function, and nervous system support.

It’s a gentle, daytime-appropriate formula for those who are looking at supporting energy and focus.

You can purchase though our website or pop in to see me at The Well Retreat

As we have two beautiful venues in our lovely market town, you may not be sure where the new Courtyard Well is hidden off the high street.

Between the Red Lion pub and Gems stationers, you’ll find a road leading to a courtyard of lovely businesses including our second venue, The Courtyard Well.

I hope this helps and we see you soon

We’re pleased to share that our friend and long-time supporter John Davis, Chartered Physiotherapist, is back in Brackley and will be running a specialist triage clinic at The Courtyard Well.

This clinic is for people dealing with ongoing or recurring injury, unresolved back or neck pain, or recovery following surgery where progress has stalled.

Appointments are extended, allowing time for a thorough assessment, treatment where appropriate, clear advice, and direction on next steps.

If you’re unsure where to turn or need a second opinion, this clinic offers a practical starting point.

To begin, John offers a brief phone conversation to check whether the triage clinic is right for you. So if you’re not sure, DM me and let’s goer a phone call organised.

A follow-up phone call is included within four weeks of your clinic visit, and your assessment report will be sent to you within three days.

I am so excited to finally have John with us, John, Welcome to Team Well. It’s been 5 years, but we got there! 💪🏼

January was never meant for reinvention.
It’s dark. The light is short. Our land is quiet.
Nothing in nature is rushing to become something new.

Somewhere along the way, we decided we knew better than the seasons.

We placed the “new year” in the middle of winter and wondered why our mind and body resists it.

Why motivation feels thin.

Why rest feels necessary.

Wintering, a term I learned a few years ago, wasn’t a trend — it gave a name to something we’d forgotten.

This is a time to be a little hidden.

To soften the edges.
To move gently.
To keep the lights low and let the nervous system settle.

At The Well, January isn’t about pushing forward.
It’s about easing in.
Honouring physical and emotional energy as it actually is.
Storing steadily for spring — the true beginning.

If this month feels slower, heavier, quieter…
you’re not failing.
You’re remembering how we’re meant to live, as part of the land not apart from the land.

If you’re looking for me, I will 100%, be under a blanket….

The final day of 2025 — and what a year it’s been.

This year, we’ve welcomed new members to our team, allowing us to expand and deepen the services we offer.

We’ve grown our wellness range, adding more commercially tested in-house products and expanding our medicinal aromatherapy offerings.

We’ve deepened our educational work too, with new courses and CPD opportunities, strengthening knowledge and professional practice.

We travelled to Türkiye to explore how aromatherapy is being used within their healthcare system, and to learn more about the research currently taking place in laboratories using essential oils.

We made the decision to expand locally, opening a second venue in Brackley — The Courtyard Well — so we can offer more to you, our community.

And most importantly, we’ve welcomed more of you — friends, families, newcomers, and long-standing clients — through our doors, trusting us to support mind, body, and spirit.

2025 was a year of expansion — of skills, team, knowledge, and place.
And it was meant to be our quiet year…

What will the year ahead hold? We don’t yet know.
But we do know how grateful we are to have you walking this journey with us.
