Carlisle Therapies was established by Ruth Irving in 2012 as a base for her thriving Acupuncture clinic.She converted this listed Georgian townhouse into a bespoke 2 storey holistic health centre, comprising three consulting rooms and one studio/meeting room. The centre is conveniently located in the heart of Carlisle city at 34 Lowther Street, CA3 8DH. It is just a stone's throw from Carlisle bus station, a few minutes’ walk from Carlisle train station and near main car parking sites. Since 2012 Ruth has steadily built a team of experienced, professional and dedicated natural health care practitioners offering a broad range of complementary and alternative therapies. Some live locally, many travel to Carlisle Therapies to hold their weekly or monthly classes and/or workshops. All are self-employed and dedicated to promoting natural healthy-living choices, wellbeing and mind-body balance. People come to Carlisle Therapies for many reasons:

• to unwind and relax – enjoy a massage, practice Mindfulness
• for nutritional advice – to aid weight loss, hormonal balance
• to relieve muscular aches & pains – acupuncture, massage
• with a sports injury – aid recovery & improve performance with acupuncture &/or deep tissue massage
• when pregnant – pregnancy yoga, hypnobirthing, moxa for turning breech
• to join a regular yoga class. Whatever the reason, people enjoy visiting the Centre. Often people come for a treatment and join a regular class – or vice versa. Our consultation rooms are tranquil, safe and have ample natural light. Our first floor Meeting Room/Studio hosts our busy timetable of popular weekly yoga classes and weekend workshops which focus on self-development and wellbeing. For a list of upcoming classes and workshops see our Event Diary. If you’re interested in joining our team or running a class, course or workshop from the centre please contact us on info@carlisletherapies.co.uk.
