Hi, I’m Chrissy Silva

Every cloud has a silver lining

I was an anxious child, a stressed teenager, spent my 20s grieving after losing my mum to breast cancer and hated my corporate career until I was diagnosed with Acromegaly at 33 - a rare endocrine disorder in the form of a pituitary tumour for which I needed emergency neurosurgery.

While researching my illness, suddenly all my mysterious and debilitating symptoms made sense (I wasn’t going mad!) and learned all I could on hormones, the body's stress response and the nervous system.

Luckily for me, my office offered workplace wellbeing services such as Reflexology which became crucial in my recovery - i'd never heard of it before but it gave me much needed relief when nothing else did.

Once I understood how Reflexology worked for me, I finally quit my corporate job and retrained as a Reflexologist so I could offer that same relief back to others! I then moved from London to the Cotswolds for a healthier lifestyle.

My treatments are performed in my serene home treatment space, 10mins walk from the center of Cotswolds village Bourton-On-The-Water, with a view out to a private lake. I love being near water!

I use breathing techniques to promote a deep state of relaxation and offer holistic lifestyle advice as part of your treatment.

I have since also qualified in Auricular Acupuncture NADA protocol where five tiny needles are applied to the ear and left in for 45 minutes during your treatment. This is a proven therapy and complements Reflexology really well to further boost your healing.

Still unsure if Reflexology is right for you?
