holistic massage
....with Annukka Barrett

Late evening and weekend appointments available!   

 

Testimonial from some of the organizations:
 Of 'positive touch and gentle touch therapies' 
‘Annukka’s approach to training is very hands on and she gets the whole group involved and every one male or female carers have reported to me their enjoyment of the sessions, as not only do we get a little pampering as Annukka goes round and spends time with each individual in the group to check the techniques we have been taught we are doing correctly, but also to give us extra information and this makes it feel personal.

We have booked Annukka for a third session this year, we wanted something different but with something we had already done and she has been able to tailor the session to the needs of the group.
The sessions Annukka provides in the 'positive touch and gentle touch therapies' 
 gives the group a pamper and social session something carers do not give themselves time to do, It also helps Carers share their thoughts, experiences and support for one another plus they get to take away something new that can be used on their loved ones or themselves and hopefully aid in their caring roles and reduce some of the stress they experience.’
Chrissie Brown Carer Development Support Worker organizer of the Campbell House Carers Support Goup/NHS
Annukka has linked with the mental health in-patient occupational therapy (OT) service at Berrywood Hospital on a regular basis for the past three years, providing a variety of holistic massage techniques according to service user need, and adapting her interventions to link in with the overall aims of service provision.  The ongoing link at Berrywood with various complementary therapies is an exciting synergy.  Extending the opportunities to our service users by adding complementary therapies to the therapeutic OT programme has demonstrated benefit to both service users and staff.  Service users can experience a different approach to dealing with their emotions, anxieties, physical health and all sorts of other difficulties, extending the understanding they have about their own body (mental and physical) and hopefully better equipping them to cope in the future.  In an ideal world, complimentary therapies will become commonplace for our mental health service users alongside other treatments, providing more opportunities for maintaining wellness.

‘I was impressed by the training you were able to deliver to our care assistants and volunteers. Not only were they informed on how to safely do touch therapy, but you were able to convey the importance of providing a protected time and space to do the activity, and how to practice good communication skills. They now do this activity with our older clients, who have told us how much they benefit from it and how relaxed they feel. Thank you, we are looking forward to some more training with you’
Vanessa Volpe, Assistant Lifetime Manager – Ace Concern

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you so very much for coming to our support group. It was really a brilliant session and the carers enjoyed it very much. It gave them some light relief from the stresses and strains of being carers 24/7’
E.Churchill, Alzheimer’s society


And some from the clients:
 ‘Your massage was best I have ever had! I was so relaxed and comfortable by the time I got home’ Jane Healy, PA –Berrywood Hospital
‘Absolutely fantastic! I felt myself drifting off a couple of times during the back massage and my whole body just felt so relaxed and so good after the session. I highly recommend massage for everyone!’  Mrs J.S Towcester ‘
‘I don’t like light, gentle massages and I am glad you recommended me to have Deep Tissue Back Massage! I really felt the benefit of it and from now on I will make sure that I will see you at least once a month!’  Ms A. P – Northampton  
‘As a keen and enthusiastic runner I keep fit and in condition by road running and attending the gym regularly. Having regular massages is like giving extra maintenance to the whole body as well as it will help to speed at recovery. I feel more relaxed, lighter and flexible and those little niggles, aches and pains – will be all gone by end of the good massage session with Annukka.’  Martin – Greens Norton
‘I thought I will treat myself with the Hot Stone Body Massage as I have been quite stressed out recently and was not really sure what to expect. However, it was really lovely treatment, just spot on and truly relaxing experience! The heat of the stones with skilled massage just melted the stress and tightness of the muscles away and replaced my body and mind with the bliss! And I had lovely sleep that night.’ M.B. – Northampton
