I'm Helen Wood, Level 5 Qualified Clinical Reflexologist and Reiki Master and Teacher. Earth and Ether Kids is the child focussed arm of my holistic therapy business Earth and Ether Holistics.
As a mum myself, I know how important support can be through all stages of childhood, from the newborn days to the teenage years. I’m passionate about helping children and young people access holistic therapies and calming tools early in life, so they can feel more supported, connected and empowered as they grow.
Having seen the benefits of reflexology and reiki in older children and teenagers in my practise I and also with my own daughter and having experienced the importance of connection and baby massage with my daughter as a baby. I decided to increase my knowledge and train with the wonderful School of Calmology to allow me to use these modalities for even younger chilldren and babies,
My aim is always to create a safe, welcoming and nurturing space where children, young people, parents and carers feel supported and understood.
I am DBS checked and have completed NSPCC safeguarding training.

Gentle, calming treatments designed to support your child’s wellbeing in a safe, welcoming and nurturing environment.
Each 30-minute session is tailored to your child’s individual needs and may help encourage relaxation, emotional balance and a sense of calm. Before any treatment begins, I will talk through the session with both you and your child in an age-appropriate way, so everyone understands what to expect and has the opportunity to ask questions.
Your child’s comfort and consent are always central to the session. Treatments are child-led, and your child is free to pause, change their mind or stop at any time. I work at a pace that feels right for them, ensuring they feel safe, respected and in control throughout.
A parent or carer stays in the room throughout the session, so your child feels safe, supported and comfortable at all times.
Sessions are adapted to suit your child’s age, preferences and comfort levels, creating a positive experience where they feel listened to and at ease.
These treatments may be particularly supportive during times of stress, worry, overwhelm, big life changes, difficulty relaxing, or when a child simply needs some gentle time to reset and recharge.
Please get in touch on 07825345910 if you’d like to discuss whether reflexology or reiki may be the best fit for your child.
