Hi, I’m Fiona – Founder and Sole Practitioner at The Corner Sanctuary
If you’re a woman who is struggling with an overwhelmed nervous system, hormonal symptoms (menopause or other), or the feeling of losing yourself in the chaos, I’d love to help you restore calmness, clarity, and balance to your life.
I’m a knowledgeable, experienced, and compassionate Reflexologist and Reiki practitioner, dedicated to helping women like you navigate the complex pressures of life.
Alongside a nearly 30-year-long career in nursing (which is still ongoing!), I became a Reiki practitioner over 25 years ago, and have over 5 years of experience in practicing Reflexology. I’m also a member of the Federation of Holistic Therapists (MFHT).
I provide personalised, restorative treatments in my dedicated garden therapy room to help you pause, recharge, and reconnect with yourself.
Where Clinical Experience Meets Holistic Wellness
I blend a unique combination of clinical experience from my career as a nurse with a lifelong passion for holistic wellbeing and spirituality.
In my role as a nurse, I’ve witnessed firsthand how the relentless stressors of modern life can build up, leading to significant physical and emotional strain, and eventually, serious health challenges.
But for me, the medical model of healthcare doesn’t place enough emphasis on prevention of ill health or on the mind-body connection.
I strongly believe that by intentionally slowing down the mind and body, we can help to reduce stress, potentially interrupting the cycle of continual stress which is vital for our mental and physical health and well-being.
That profound, restorative pause is exactly what I aim to deliver with my reflexology and Reiki treatments at The Corner Sanctuary.
Disclaimer: While I bring almost 30 years of nursing experience to my practice, in my role as a Reflexologist and Reiki practitioner, I do not provide any kind of medical treatment or advice. My treatments are complementary and focus on supporting relaxation, emotional balance, and overall well-being.
The Values That Guide My Practice
My values guide every moment of my work as a Reflexologist and Reiki practitioner, shaping the way I connect with my clients, create a safe and welcoming space, and support your wellbeing.
Trust
Your personal comfort is my priority, and treatments can be tailored to your individual needs.
I will never disclose your personal information without your consent (law-abiding), and take measures to protect your personal information.
Respect
During your treatments, my energy and focus are 100% dedicated to you.
I manage my schedule carefully to ensure you receive my full attention and expertise, so you reap the maximum benefits of your treatment.
I will always honour your personal preferences and boundaries.
Honesty
In my role as a Reflexologist and Reiki practitioner, I must act within my scope of practice as a complementary therapist.
I will not act in a medical capacity in my work at The Corner Sanctuary.
If I feel a concern may require medical attention, I will advise that you seek guidance from a healthcare professional.
A Hidden Garden Sanctuary for Your Mind, Body & Spirit
Tucked away in the heart of Hoddesdon, Hertfordshire, The Corner Sanctuary is a safe and welcoming space dedicated entirely to my clients – busy women like you who long for a moment of true relaxation and tranquillity.
My purpose-built garden therapy room was built with the environment in mind. It is made with 90% up cycled materials and offers a unique opportunity to reconnect with nature while reconnecting with yourself. From the moment you step through the garden pathway, the process of unwinding begins.
This is not just a treatment — it’s a moment to return to yourself.
