Georgie Burtinshaw
Discovering yoga in my mid-twenties was a turning point in my life, instigating a lifelong
healing journey back home to myself. I knew from my very first yoga class that I had to share
these ancient wisdoms with others so that more people could feel the incredible physical,
mental and emotional benefits. My teaching reflects my personal journey of slowing down in
recent years, to help students gain greater depths of awareness and to help soothe busy minds.
I teach deeply nurturing classes with a big focus on the breath, that help unwind and calm your
nervous system to release tension and create a greater sense of ease. I truly believe yoga is for
everyone at any stage of your life and I love tuning in to what you need as you come to your mat
to practice whatever maybe happening in your life. I particularly love teaching yoga that
reflects our inner and outer cycles/ seasons. I teach a variety of styles of yoga including Gentle
Slow Flow, Hatha, Yin, Pregnancy, Post Natal and Restorative. I look forward to planning a
bespoke yoga practice just for you.

Reflexology
Kate Cracknell
I am Kate, a local reflexologist living close to Tree Space. Before reflexology, I was a busy, stressed

reflexology and loved the cloud-nine feeling it gave from head to toe - I wanted to give this amazing
treatment back to others.
I have specialist training in supporting the wellness of women, particularly those suffering from
anxiety and the symptoms associated with menopause such as; tension headaches, insomnia and
mood swings as well as relieving foot pain related to plantar fasciitis.
I have an ITEC Level 3 Diploma in Reflexology, I am a member of the Association of Reflexologists
(MAR) registered with the NHS and recently completed my First Degree Shoden level in Reiki. Sit
back, relax, and enjoy the unique restorative benefits of reflexology in the tranquillity of Tree Space.

Maxine Dee
Hello, I'm Maxine and I run Metaxia Therapies. I am a Reiki master/teacher, Kinesiologist,
Massage therapist and Pendulum Therapeutics therapist. I started out on my holistic therapies
journey, training in massage and soon followed this with Reiki training over 20 years' ago.
I was originally taught a Greek massage technique, handed down 'master-apprentice style'. It's
deeply relaxing, but also effective at releasing muscle tension. Kinesiology and Pendulum
Therapeutics achieve similar aims, but one is 'hands on' (Kinesiology), whilst the other is 'hands
off' (Pendulum Therapeutics). Pendulum Therapeutics is a deeply relaxing approach to releasing
energy blocks, and then increasing beneficial, positive energies, using charts and a pendulum to
identify these.
Kinesiology uses muscle response testing (biofeedback) to determine the interventions needed
to return to health and well-being. Guided by the client, emotional, physical, and bio-chemical
aspects, and the interplay between these are considered in terms of enhancing well-being.
I can use one or a combination of therapies I've trained in during a session.
Massage 1hr: £160.00
90 mins: £190.00
Pendulum therapeutics, kinesiology, reiki: 60 mins: £160.00

Fascia Release with Alison
Fascia is deeply connected to your nervous system and emotional body. It stores unprocessed stress and trauma
when there has been no safe outlet. It connects directly to the limbic system via sensory receptors, which is why
unresolved emotions can live in the body as chronic tension or pain. As we begin to unwind old patterns and stories,
posture changes. Emotions move. Focus sharpens. Choices feel less reactive. When people release the body's core
holding patterns, they don't just move differently, they live differently. Fascia release rewires both the nervous
system and the brain. This is how we stop living the past and start choosing a new experience for ourselves. A
regulated body rewrites old stories because we were never broken, we were just holding on.

£160 (2 hours+ an integrative call 1 week after your stay)
Couples massage course - a half-day session { 2.5 hours) during your stay.
In this course, your intention is yours to define. Generally, the focus is on connecting with your partner, being present
in the moment, and attuning your touch to each other’s needs. It is like entering a non-verbal dialogue or a dance with
one another through your touch.
When this occurs, the recipient can relax deeply because they feel truly met, which in turn can bring joy and a sense of
ease to the giver. This approach can deepen your connection with each other, enhance your communication, and might
even take your relationship to an even more meaningful level.
There are no complex techniques to learn. By following a few simple principles and ensuring both partners are
comfortable, this approach can be deeply pleasurable for both of you.
The course includes:
- Initial connection exercises to set the tone and intention.
- Self-massage practice to feel your own touch and to learn basic principles.
- Guidance on finding comfortable positions to massage one another.
- Ample time to explore massaging each other within the comfort of the retreat.
- Time to integrate the experience and share reflections.
- A follow-up check-in call one month later to address any questions as you integrate these practices into daily life.
Cost: £250 (including the check-in call)

Ellie Bebbington
I'm Ellie & I'm a Breathwork Coach. I offer a one-of-a-kind deeply immersive breathwork session using
silent disco headsets & eye masks so clients can fully let go. Guided with my voice and the music
throughout, but not hearing or seeing anything else external at all. We breathe in sequence through
rounds of breath, which vary in intensity and speed that then induces an altered state of consciousness as
the body is flooded with oxygen. It is then that clients float into magical guided meditation where they can
release what is needed & are able to find peace, calm & clarity. Integration follows with a final track where I
offer hands on reiki for healing & then I gently bring clients round, lighter and more able to face the world.
This incredibly powerful style of breathwork is suitable for all & always has a huge impact.
For a 75-minute session which includes blue lotus or mushroom tea at the start it is £222 total either 1:1 or
2:1 Indian Head massage that can be added onto the end of this session directly
