At the Bodywork Centre we have a number of Holistic Therapists specialising in many different types of massage and holistic therapy.
Holistic and Yoga Therapist - Rachel Orange
​
Rachel's Holistic Therapy training started in Newcastle in 2009. Since then she has worked for Tynedale Hospice, Minsteracres and for the charity, Mind. Rachel has also trained as an occupational therapist. In 2017 she developed her passion of Yoga & Meditation, investing in a two year teacher training course in Scotland to learn the style of Dru Yoga - a gentle yet potent, Hatha based Yoga that flows to support our layers of being. She likes to teach to music and uses pranayama (breathwork) & Tibetan sound bowls in her sessions to help clients access deep states of relaxation and healing. Rachel has a passion to offer a full holistic package combining the benefits of Dru Yoga with her range of holistic treatments which include Swedish Massage, Reflexology and Shiatsu as well as Thai Yoga Massage and Yoga Therapy. Treatments are designed to be tailored to help nurture the body, to cleanse and detox whilst boosting vitality to restore natural health and vital lifeforce energy.

Holistic Therapist - Valerie Widdowson
​
Valerie has always had an interest in the mind and healing, studying psychology in her teens. During the covid years, Valerie’s interest in holistic healing took off when she developed a passion for crystals and energy healing - training courses in crystal healing and reiki began.​ Valerie is now a reiki master in a number of reiki disciplines and continues to explore these and other energy healing practices, recently training in Violet Flame Therapy. Adding Access Bars to her toolkit in 2021 has proved popular and effective among Valerie’s clients.
​
Building on the early years of studying psychology, Valerie became qualified in Clinical Hypnotherapy in 2022, swiftly followed by an additional qualification in Past Life Regression through hypnotherapy in the same year. Valerie believes illness often begins in the mind, so it follows that healing also begins here. She emphasises that holistic therapies are not only great for treating specific problems but are also a wonderful general maintenance tool - providing stress-release, relaxation and re-balancing.
​
Therapies are available on Mondays by appointment.
