Working as a self-employed body worker has it challenges. One of them is building a base of clients who return regularly for treatments. People come for a treatment and at the end of the session they tell me how relaxed or amazing they feel. When I offer to schedule another appointment, which I find difficult because I don’t want to pressurise people, they will say ‘I’ll definitely book in again, but I need to look at my diary.’ They don’t book in again. People have good intentions and they just don’t get around to it.

For some though the experience of being in a relaxed, rest and digest state is too much. They are so used to being in fight or flight and hooked on the adrenaline and cortisol that comes with this state. To them, the experience of being calm and relaxed is overwhelming and challenging and so they don’t book that next appointment. It can be easier to be in your head rather than your body.

The problem is that our bodies really need to experience feeling calm and relaxed regularly. If they don’t, they start to send us subtle messages: continual fatigue, racing heart, skin conditions, palpitations, racing mind, gut problems. We may even go to the GP, get investigations done, and find that there is nothing underlying wrong with us. This is when we need to pause and listen to our bodies and ask what it needs. They answer is usually time to rest, be quiet, and experience calm.

We can do this in lots of ways: being in nature, meditating, gentle exercise, being with loved ones, resting, crafting, making music, singing.

Body work is another way of achieving this. Body work does this because slow touch, creates safety and signals to the brain that it can allow the body to relax and it starts to release chemicals such as oxytocin and dopamine which support relaxation in the body.

If you are someone who avoids body work or finds it challenging, I suggest you try body work and make it a priority. Your body will thank you for it.

A wee request……

I would greatly appreciate a review on google, Facebook, or my booking app if you have been for a treatment at Sole & Body Work and found it beneficial.

I know some people are shy and if this is not your thing, then please recommend me to others.

I’m still trying to build my business and it can be hard work constantly promoting your business on social media. That’s why recommendations and reviews are really helpful. 🙏🏼🥰

Hello, I’m Anna, and I’m the proud owner of Sole and Body Work, based in Kirkcaldy. I wanted to take a moment to introduce myself, share a little about my journey, and explain why I’m so passionate about the services I offer.

I was born and raised in Kirkcaldy, and for 19 years, I worked as a secondary school teacher. It was a role I loved, but after almost two decades, I felt it was time for a change. I decided to retrain as a relationship counsellor. I moved into the charity sector, where I worked for over 12 years in various roles, including relationship and trauma informed counselling. It was during this time that I became interested in how our emotional and physical health are connected.

In 2022, I started a diploma in clinical reflexology, and I am now qualified in reflexology, reflexology for menopause, Swedish massage, and Myofascial Release. Over the years, I’ve learned that stress, trauma, and emotions can have a lasting effect on our bodies. Talking therapies are beneficial, but body work can play a vital role in the healing process too. Body work can support relaxation, reduce the impact of stress, and ease tension in the body. My aim is to support clients to do this through the treatments that I offer.

I’ve lived in Dysart for 26 years, and it’s here that I offer treatments. Sole and Body Work is a dream come true for me. I started my business in 2024, but I had to pause this when I had an accident that left me with burns requiring skin grafts. It was a difficult time, but it taught me about resilience and the importance of self-care. After recovering, I decided it was time to take the plunge and focus full-time on my business. Life is too short not to take risks!

You can book your treatment through the links on Instagram, Facebook or my website, using Setmore booking app, or message me directly. I’m looking forward to connecting with more of the lovely people in Kirkcaldy. Thanks so much for reading, and I hope to see you soon!
