Anna was introduced to complementary therapies when studying at Drama School in the mid 90’s. In 2001 she received a shiatsu. Anna found it a beautiful and powerful treatment.

As a therapist Anna feels she is very intuitive and will work sensitively and adapt the treatment to the constitution and energy levels of the client at that particular time. She is able to give a very gentle healing treatment or one which is much more vigorous and dynamic.
Anna is also very passionate about food and nutrition, which featured as a large part of her shiatsu training and will incorporate her own perspective on nutrition as well as general lifestyle advice into her consultation.

“I myself suffered recurrent miscarriages. This lead me into detailed research into all aspects of miscarriage and pregnancy. As a result of my research, I used various natural methods, including; nutrition, acupuncture and hypnotherapy, both before and during my pregnancy, subsequently giving birth to a beautiful baby girl in August 2013. I am passionate about sharing and helping those who are going through similar experiences”.
