Hi, I’m Rachel.
I’ve been a nurse since 1999, after qualifying with a BSc (Hons) in Adult Nursing. Over the years, I found myself drawn to how powerful therapeutic touch can be – I saw, time and again, how calming it could be for patients.
In 2019, I trained to teach baby massage, and could see how much this affected both parent and child in a positive way. This paved the way for my path into discovering more complementary therapies. I qualified as a reflexologist in autumn 2021 and haven’t looked back since.
I began with Reflexology with Rachel, but as I kept learning and expanding, Cherry Tree Holistic came to life. I’m now qualified to offer treatments in Reflexology, Indian Head Massage, Reiki, Gua Sha Facial Therapy, Acupressure Facial Therapy, Mian Dui Facials and support for Perimenopause. I’m really intentional about what I offer – if it doesn’t feel genuinely helpful to my clients, I don’t add it.
A little about how I work
Being a woman – and a mum – I know just how easy it is to put yourself last. Between work, family, and all the other demands on your time, slowing down can feel like a luxury you can’t afford. But the truth is, you deserve that space.
My hope is to help you see that your wellbeing isn’t optional – it’s essential. When you care for yourself, you ensure that you meet not only your needs, but the needs of those around you.
Each session I offer is tailored to you, based on how you’re feeling that day and what your body needs. My aim is simple: that you leave feeling lighter, more grounded, and a little more like yourself again – and that feeling carries on, long after you’ve gone home.

Stepping into Rachel’s treatment room has been like entering an oasis of calm and comfort…..Rachel genuinely cares about her patients and has such a lovely gentle, calming approach.
I felt such a strong sense of being seen and understood on a profound level. It was as if she could tap into the centre of my being, supporting my physical and emotional imbalances with grace and compassion.
I had a beautiful treatment with her and felt truly heard, supported, nurtured and cared for….her unique balance of holistic and traditional approaches was refreshing and truly appreciated.
