Philippa McGill

Hi, I’m Philippa. I am a member of the Federation of Holistic Therapists having qualified with a Diploma in Reflexology in January 2023 from Angel Haven School of Complementary Therapies. I am certified in Cancer Care and Pregnancy Reflexology.

Earlier this year I completed an “Advanced Women’s Wellness Reflexology” course specialising in fertility, pregnancy and menopause. The healing practice of reflexology benefits women and men of all ages with its stress reducing and restorative powers; improving circulation and sometimes relieving pain.

It can be particularly beneficial to those on the Autistic Spectrum in reducing anxiety and I have several, regular autistic clients who find the relaxing attributes of reflexology an important factor in their coping strategies. I have many years’ experience working with young people in my main job as a secondary school teacher and I understand the stressors that young people today experience.

Reflexology can give young people much needed relief from the stress of modern living and help stabilise emotions and promote relaxation. I offer a 25% discount to young people under the age of 18 throughout the year and to students during examination time.

I practise from Body and Mind on Thursday evenings, and I am willing to travel to clients’ homes at other times should the client have mobility issues which affects their ability to attend the wellness centre.
