I also support a variety of other issues including insomnia, stress, anxiety and digestive issues.

Hi Mark - could you email me to arrange a time to come and look at my sitting room ceiling...we have had a leak in the bathroom above and it needs repainting many thanks Charlotte

Very happy to recommend Gary Vu for electrical work - we've used him for big and small jobs over the last few years and he always steps in at short notice reliably and with good humour even when the jobs have been minor. You can reach him on 07872 178044

Have to put a testimonial out there for Michael - he has been tutoring my son for his Spanish A2 exam for the last six months and he has been AMAZING. Both interesting and interested Michael has been totally engaged in what he does, really cares and takes the whole thing very seriously while also being great company, light hearted and an absolute pleasure to have around. I couldn't recommend him more highly. We are going to miss his weekly visits!

Thank you very much for the kind recommendation above! I am a clinical reflexologist in Dulwich and at Neal's Yard Therapy Rooms in Covent Garden with a special interest and training in maternity reflexology. I work and support many women through fertility, pregnancy, IVF and post-natally. I also treat many clients for stress, anxiety and insomnia as well as general wellbeing and relaxation. I am also a massage therapist and run baby massage groups. Here is a link to my website for anyone who would like to see a little bit more about me - I would be delighted to meet and treat any of you! Charlotte

Recommendation for Nico - came round very promptly this afternoon, is a really nice guy and went to lots of trouble to sort out the cistern in our WC. Reasonably priced and would definitely use him again.

Gift vouchers available - for Valentine's and beyond! - for reflexology, pregnancy massage and Indian head massage to ease you through your pregnancy aches and pains and help prepare for birth. Be lovely to hear from you...

Sorry - only just seen your post... Two recent studies have shown that reflexology in pregnancy significantly reduced pain in labour (1), reduced the length of the first stage of labour (1) and improved quality of sleep in post-partum women (2). Li C-Y et al (2011) Randomised controlled trial of effectiveness of reflexology of using reflexology to improve sleep among postpartum women. Midwifery 27 p181-186. (2) Valiani M et al (2010) Reviewing the effect of reflexology on pain and outcome of labour of primiparous women. Journal of Nursing and Midwifery Research 15 Dec p 302-310 (1) As with all largely non-funded complementary therapies the majority of evidence is experience-based and there is a wealth of anecdotal evidence from women who have benefited from reflexology for sub-fertility, pregnancy, labour and post-natal recovery.

Hello - a one-hour reflexology treatment is ?45 (allow up to one hour and 15 minutes for the first appointment for a brief medical consultation). Courses are also available of five treatments with the sixth free which brings the price down to ?37 per treatment. More information on my website www.touchtherapy.co. Email me at [email protected] or call me on 07932 698 864 to book a treatment or if you have any other questions - it would be lovely to meet you! I look forward to hearing from you - Charlotte

Also now available in Touch Therapy's lovely Dulwich clinic the full range of Neals Yard Remedy Organics products - order Christmas presents for friends, family (or yourself!) and I will have them in my treatment room within a few days or before your next appointment.

I read this and had to put in a good word for reflexology - not just to promote own services I promise! Reflexology's reputation - particularly for sub-fertility, fertility, pregnancy and post-natally, is well-established as well as being shown to be beneficial for a whole range of other health concerns - chronic and acute. Definitely not a foot rub although a dispiriting amount of inadequate training courses churning out poorly qualified 'reflexologists'. Always consult the Association of Reflexologists for a clinical reflexologist and with maternity reflexology training for pregnancy. www.touchtherapy.co

"Reflexology is second to none for pregnancy care" Suzanne Enzer, midwife and reflexologist I am a fully qualified clinical reflexologist and massage therapist with post-graduate training in maternity reflexology and pregnancy massage offering treatments from my warm and tranquil clinic in Dulwich, as well as from Neal's Yard Therapy Rooms in Covent Garden. Enjoy the benefits of balancing, energising, stress-relieving reflexology and massage to promote a more relaxed pregnancy, easier labour and faster post-natal recovery. Reflexology is not only well established for encouraging fertility but also for gaining symptomatic relief from a range of chronic and acute health concerns including stress, headaches, insomnia, musculoskeletal pain and niggling pregnancy aches and pains. Options for pain relief are limited during pregnancy and side-lying massage can bring an escape from stretched and strained tendons and ligaments - as well as being a precious little bit of me-time in the later stages before the baby arrives! Please look at my website for much more information about the treatments I offer or to email me with any questions. I really look forward to meeting you and treating you. www.touchtherapy.co NEW TO TOUCH THERAPY! Infant massage classes from newborn to pre-crawling - groups of up to 8 babies at my Dulwich practice on Tuesday mornings and afternoons. Following the International Association of Infant Massage curriculum this course teaches a wonderful massage routine for you to practise on your baby as well as the theory of bonding and attachment, behavioural states, engagement cues, 'listening' to your baby, adaptations for your growing child etc. Come and meet other new parents or round up some local friends and come as a group - bring your baby and a sense of humour!
