“Reflexology is not a new concept; it has a rich history that spans thousands of years. This therapeutic practice can be traced back to ancient Egypt, China and India. The essence of reflexology lies in the belief that specific points on the feet, hands and ears are connected to various organs and systems in the body. By applying pressure to these points, practitioners can stimulate healing responses and restore balance.

The Benefits of Reflexology

May Help with Stress Reduction:

Reflexology is championed for its ability to reduce stress and promote relaxation. The gentle pressure applied during a session may help calm the nervous system, allowing the body to release tension and anxiety.

May Improve Circulation:

Reflexology is said to enhance blood circulation, which is crucial for delivering oxygen and nutrients to cells.

May Promote Pain Relief:

Many people turn to reflexology to alleviate chronic pain conditions, such as migraines, back pain and arthritis. By targeting specific reflex points, reflexologists can help reduce pain and discomfort.

May Enhance Wellbeing:

Regular reflexology sessions may lead to a sense of overall wellbeing. Clients often report improved sleep, increased energy levels and a greater sense of balance in their lives.”

My energy healing journey took me close to where I grew up yesterday; the tiny school where I spent many a happy day. The beautiful church full of harvest festival & Christmas memories; also where I played my flute for an audience for the first time aged 10 😊

Although energy work seeps into all my treatments if you have any questions & or would like more of a focus during your sessions with me just ask 💛



I still have my cup in the day retreat from 1988

The summer holidays can be wonderful but also exhausting between work, housekeeping, children’s activities & the additional taxi services.

Don’t forget to book yourself some time to
‘Practise the Pause’

Day time (Mon-Fri) & evening (Wed) appointments available.

I always come back from my own Complementary Therapy treatments feeling nurtured, grounded & rejuvenated, which helps me look after my own well-being and helps me give the best of myself to my children and others.

Some of my favourite ways to take time out for myself between my treatments are:

1. Waking early to do a free online yoga session (link in comments)

2. Listening to a podcast or audiobook in the car or whilst making dinner (lots free on BBC Sounds App)

3. 5min Breathing Exercises (link in comments)

4. Guided Meditation(link in comments)

5. Sitting on the back step with a cup of tea & something to read (yesterday a lovely woman recommended the book by Christian Lewis Finding Hildasay: How one man walked the UK's coastline and found hope and happiness)

6. Picking myself a bunch of flowers from the garden and arranging them for my room

If you’d like to discuss or book a treatment pop me a message or use the contact page on my website: www.encilmelangell.com and I will get back to you.

It was lovely to be invited to participate in the Flower Festival at St. Mary’s Church, Llanfair Caereinion.

Such a peaceful morning creating this foam free display and meeting lots of friendly people.

My creation is inspired by Melangell whose story you can read beside the display & on my website https://www.encilmelangell.com/melangell

A huge amount of effort has gone into the preparations to raise money towards repairing the clock and it all looks beautiful.

Dad and I are planing to visit for tea and cake at the weekend & the children have already been in to look at some of the beautiful displays.

It will be lovely to welcome your guests to the day retreat www.encilmelangell.com

Beautiful Yurts ~ well worth looking into for your holiday or for when family and friends visit

Knowing how hard it can be for small businesses to survive, its great to see so many setting up and thriving within a few miles of us. A few days ago I went to a presentation given by Amber at Encil Melangell / Melangell's Retreat which is in Llanfair Caereinion, just 2 miles from us.
Amber offers many ways to relax and unwind, including sessions of reflexology, aromatherapy, massage and gentle release therapy. It was fascinating to hear Amber's story, and mind blowing to find out we taught in two of the same schools in Somerset in our past careers!
Booking is essential as Amber's services are highly sought after, so if you're coming to stay with us and fancy a pampering session for your senses, please get in touch with her as soon as you can.

I had such a lovely welcome at Llanfair Caereinion W.I. last night.

Having felt slightly nervous at the prospect of giving an hour’s speech, I was soon greeted by some familiar and some new friendly faces, leaving me much more relaxed when it came to the talk about treatments at Encil Melangell ~ Melangell’s Day Retreat.

I was pleasantly surprised to meet another teacher who had taught at the same school I did; during one of my teaching placements many moons ago in Somerset (it’s a small world)

The delicious Bara brith and cup of tea, whilst chatting to all the members at the end was a real highlight… so much so I am planning to go back to join the group on their summer outing.

I have copies of the programme of events for the year in the day retreat should you wish to pick one up at your next appointment. I had forgotten how lovely it feels to be apart of a group of women in this way; I fell out of the habit during the covid lockdowns.

Photo: a beautiful rose taken on my lunch time walk in Berriew this week. During the talk we discussed how Rose essential oil can support you in times of grief / loss; it’s a very nurturing oil. A few drops in a little milk, in the bath or in a diffuser can be very soothing.
