Hello there, and welcome!


I want to help you and your
child.

I can help all children with
additional needs, but
especially those who
experience sensory issues.

For example, I can help your
child overcome their
aversion to having their hair
washed.

My name is Sarah, and I’m an aromatherapist and Special Yoga practitioner based in Chippenham, Wiltshire. I use a combination of Special Yoga and massage to help children with additional needs become calm and still, and cope with anything they find overwhelming.

...
As you can see on my Touch page, hugging and touch lead to many benefits, and can do so much for children with additional needs, so my overall aim is for your child to become desensitised and more touch tolerant.

SELF-SOOTH

Not only will this help them become more comfortable letting someone else – especially yourself – touch them, but I will also help them develop the skills needed to be able to self-soothe or self-regulate their emotions.

Being able to self-soothe, become relaxed and produce an inner calm by themselves is empowering for your child, which will increase their confidence, and means that they won’t always have to rely on other people to help them when they need it.


I relish helping children such as yours, and watching how they respond and develop is so incredibly heart-warming. I very much enjoy seeing and celebrating with them/you any changes, however small. I feel incredibly lucky to be able to call this my work, and to be able to make such an important difference in so many lives.

...
Apart from helping your
child

  • become more touch
    tolerant, and
  • more willing to self-
    soothe,
another objective is to
make your child

  • feel safe and
    supported,
giving them a safe place to
develop, both personally
and emotionally.
By carrying out my practices in a secure and comfortable environment, I can ensure that the experience will be incredibly beneficial, and your child will get so much more out of it.

Furthermore, I also aim to be there to support, enable and empower them throughout every step of their journey, and I would love to continually work with your child, nurturing them through their teens and into adulthood, helping them overcome any issues or worries they may face along the way.

The skills I teach will help them cope with anything life throws at them, but this will be a constant development, and I love the idea of watching them grow up and bloom. This way we can focus on and develop a variety of goals, both short-term and long-term, making the experience less overwhelming – for both you and your child – and give you assurance, as well as something positive to focus on.
