Hello, I'm Andrea
Founder, Calm Touch
My name is Andrea, and I am the founder of Calm Touch. I am a qualified reflexologist, and registered midwife. I have been working within a hospital setting for over 14 years, 11 years in the midwifery-led unit.
I am deeply passionate about encouraging the use of complimentary therapy during labour and childbirth, having witnessed first-hand the potential of holistic therapy to many women.
​
My passion has led me to achieving a Diploma in Clinical Reflexology at an advanced level 5. I also have a Diploma in hypnobirthing and Indian Head Massage and a Royal College of Midwives (RCM) accredited certificate to use 6 blends of aromatherapy during childbirth and labour. I have completed my Baby Reflex Course, where I can provide educational classes for parents and carers to treat their own children from 6 weeks to age 4years. These two courses are fantastic in bonding, support and complementary treatment for tiny feet and tiny hands.
​
My passion for holistic therapy and the benefits to the users extends not only for women and maternity, but also for men and women with various concerns. Also educational courses for parents and carers to treat their children at home as they grow.
I am registered with the Federation of Holistic Therapy (FHT) and fully insured to offer Holistic therapy which includes
