Welcome to A Positive Touch, Dundee;
Holistic Therapies for health, relaxation & renewal
Hello, I'm Tracey, and for more than a decade I have been a fully qualified Reflexologist and Reiki practitioner, based in Dundee.
As a registered nurse (BSc), and holistic therapist, my passion lies in nurturing women's health and well-being. With a special interest in reproductive care.
I help women to navigate every stage of their reproductive journey, from menarche' to menopause with holistic reflexology, self care and natural healing. My aim is to bridge the gap between conventional medicine and holistic health.
Women's health is a lifelong journey, and it is my personal belief that every woman should be and deserves to feel balanced, empowered and in tune with her body.
Whether you are struggling with hormonal imbalances, fertility challenges, pregnancy, or menopausal symptoms. I am here to support you.
With a background in nursing, reflexology and holistic healing practices I take a personalised and integrative approach to help you to reclaim your own well-being.
NURTURING WELLNESS NATURALLY
My practice is rooted in providing personalised care that addresses your body, mind, and soul. Every session is designed to help you to support your body's own natural rhythms bringing balance, restoring energy, and guiding you towards lasting transformation. I believe very much in the power of preventative medicine and the impact of balanced living and self care.
Lifestyle choices and stress cause the majority of disease we suffer from today, the use of integrated medicine can help us to join the dots , leading to improved health, wellbeing, and overall quality of life.
let's connect
Your body has its own innate wisdom on how to heal, given the correct environment - let's explore that together. If you have any questions or concerns about your health, that you think I may be able to help with, please don't hesitate to book in for a free 15 minute discovery call, or send me an email and I'll get back to you as soon as possible.
I look forward to accompanying you on your path to holistic wellness.
Best wishes,
Tracey

Holistic therapies take in the whole person, treating body, mind, and soul ... and can run alongside conventional medicine. You should always seek advice from your GP if you are concerned about any symptoms you may have.
Reflexology is a deeply relaxing natural therapy, founded on the belief that your feet, hands, ears and face are a reflection of the systems in the body - where specific areas correspond to organs, glands and structure. By applying gentle pressure to specific areas of the feet, hands, ears or face a Reflexologist can encourage the body to restore its own healthy balance. Unlike massage, which works on muscles, reflexology works through the nervous system, and the body's own energy pathways.
Evidence has been found for some form of foot and hand therapy being practiced in China and Egypt more than four thousand years ago.
True healing goes beyond treating symptoms - it's about restoring balance and supporting the body's natural rhythm's, and addressing the root causes of imbalance. My holistic approach to reflexology, reiki and the other therapies I offer mean that I consider the whole person, body, mind and emotions.
The therapies also have the added benefit of being deeply relaxing. During periods of relaxation, the body takes the opportunity to heal, restore, rebalance and energise itself.
Both Reflexology and Reiki are a wonderful way of maintaining your body's healthy balance and general wellbeing, reducing the stresses and tensions that come with busy lifestyles and giving us a space to reflect on the mind as well as the body.
After a session you may well feel a sense of balance and peace, that has perhaps eluded you for some time.
Reflexology and Reiki can induce a deep state of relaxation. Relaxing helps relieve tension and aids circulation, increasing the flow of nutrients, oxygen and energy to all parts of the body, helping with removal of toxins. Relaxation assists the body in dealing with the stress response, to which there are many benefits physically, mentally, and emotionally
Reflexologists cannot claim to diagnose or cure. During treatment, we assess 'feedback' as to which parts of the body are working well and which feel imbalanced. Sometimes Reflexology will highlight a specific area that may be working harder to maintain your wellbeing.
While the therapies I offer may not be a cure for a particular ailment. They can be particularly effective in helping to manage many health conditions, especially constant or recurring ones. Encouraging the body, mind and soul to reach a sense of equilibrium

General aches & pains

How often should I have reflexology or reiki treatments?
Everyone is different and the response to Reflexology or reiki can be variable depending on the problem and length of time the problem has been present. However, consistency is key.
Regular sessions support deeper healing and long lasting balance.
At your first consultation I will advise a course of treatments. Usually weekly treatments provide the best benefits, helping the body to kickstart the self healing process. Reducing to fortnightly or monthly treatments, as improvements are felt.
We will formulate a treatment plan together at your first appointment, which best suits your needs.
With the packaged programmes I offer the healing journey is already mapped out for you.
What to expect in a treatment?
Reflexology is mainly performed on the feet, ankles and occasionally the lower leg (unless you are booked in for some advanced reflexology techniques). The most you’ll have to do is take off your shoes and socks and roll up your trousers! (please try not to wear skinny jeans for your appointment).
Your treatment will be tailored to your needs, in a relaxing and nurturing environment within my treatment cabin.
Gentle pressure is then applied to the reflex points
And don’t worry - reflexology doesn't tickle! Many clients come to me with ticklish feet, worried about their feet being touched, but find they can relax and enjoy the benefits of Reflexology.
Does reflexology hurt?
You may find some areas feel sensitive to the touch. As a therapist, I will be aware of the status of your feet, noticing how they feel, the temperature and colour. All of these things play a part in understanding which areas of your body - as reflected through your feet - require a little more care and attention. Reflexology shouldn't hurt, you are always in control and can request either firmer or lighter pressure
