Sole n Soul Reflexology and EFT | Tapping, Emotional Freedom Technique

Hello and a very warm welcome to Sole n Soul. My name is Melanie and I am an ITEC qualified Reflexologist (Distinction Grade) and an Accredited Advanced Level 3 EFT Practitioner offering treatments either here face to face or for EFT sessions can be done online.

I am also a member of the Complementary Therapists Association, EFT International and I am also on the Complementary and Natural Healthcare Council. All of these organisations have guidelines to follow and one of their requirements is that I have regular refresher training, this ensures you are always in safe hands.

I also received training within The MacMillian Cancer Centre, this is based within the Southampton General Hospital.

MacMillan offer cancer patients various complementary therapies throughout their treatment and I was delighted to be on their team of therapists.

Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) or Tapping as it has become known as more recently, is a mind and body therapy. EFT works upon accupressure points within the body. These accupressure points are along the meridian lines within the body and EFT works by releasing energy that may be blocked there.

Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) helps us tune in to the negative patterns that we may have formed these include; uncomfortable thoughts, feelings, or troubling memories. When we ‘tap’ on the correct pressure points while bringing the thoughts or emotions into consciousness. The aim is to find relief, relaxation, and promote healing around the emotional or physical issues that may be holding us back.

During a session I help a client “tap into” their unique subjective experience of a presenting challenge (or troubling issue/s) for the purpose of gaining clarity and resolution. This supports the client in making changes (emotional and/or physical), shifting limited thought processes, resolving past traumas, opening to beneficial ways to move forward and more.

There is now a large amount of science and research that has been published on EFT please see here:

'My experience has been life changing with Melanie. I started my therapy sessions for depression and trauma. She helped me to heal myself by addressing fears and accepting my emotions with EFT techniques. Still healing journey is long but I have gained confident in myself back and happy to restart life.' I can't explain in words how much transformation I've gone through with her sessions. She is amazing Soul and I can't thank Melanie enough for everything she has done for and with me during all her sessions. Every session was new and different emotional journey for me. I would highly recommend her to begin your healing journey.

I saw Melanie to help with a problem I had in leaving the house, or more specifically, going out the front door. I was a bit skeptical but open to whatever Melanie suggested and found her approach reassuring and non judgemental. Melanie explained the background to EFT and how the session would go. Halfway through the session, Melanie checked in on how I felt about certain things. I actually felt a bit different which I found amusing so we carried on to complete the session. Afterwards I had a completely different perspective around my problem. I felt more confident and put into practice the techniques Melanie showed me. I am pleased to say that I do not have any of the previous feelings around leaving the house, and was completely amazed that after just one session, the result was transformational.

I was a bit sceptical about doing something out of my comfort zone but as soon as I met Mel on Zoom she instantly put me at ease. I really enjoyed doing the tapping and have started to put it into practice, Mels a great teacher and it has helped me, Thank you Mel

I was surprised how quickly I could feel the results of EFT. A little adjusting to what words suited me so I could continue to practice by myself. The process was simple and effective.

EFT was a really new experience for me and I didn't know what to expect but was pleasently suprised as Mel made it really easy to follow. Mel has a nice calming way with words in a comforting manner. Now when I look back on my traumatic experience I feel no emotions and have been able to process whats happened.

I have had two sessions of EFT with Mel and I enjoyed the outcomes of both of these. Mel introduced me to the EFT session so that I understood how it could help with issues I had in mind. She also helped me by explaining the process and what to expect. EFT is a process where we tap on certain parts of our body which sends direct signals to our subconscious minds, and Mel led me through this process and helped me reinforce my thinking in overcoming issues which had been challenging me. I felt some changes through the process and also felt some good positive changes during and after the EFT sessions. I feel that EFT does work, it has for me and I have felt more in control of the challenging situations I wanted to resolve.

Melanie was so calming for my first reflexology session with her. Her space is relaxing and tranquil and the reflexology itself released a lot of tension for me. I would absolutely recommend!

It’s my pleasure to leave a review for Melanie at Sole n Soul. She is extremely calming, comforting and knowledgeable and her hands are magic. I am new to reflexology and boy have I been missing out. Not only is it 45 minutes of total deep relaxation in a beautiful setting but also has been beneficial for my anxiety/stress and brought relief from my lower back pain. I am so pleased I have found Melanie and think everyone should treat themselves to some Melanie time! My next session cannot come soon enough!

I have been visiting Melanie for two years now to help with sleep issues, anxiety and to improve general wellbeing. From the very start Mel puts you at ease in her garden studio and works her magic. A very relaxing space and time well spent, always leave feeling much more balanced. I wholeheartedly recommend 🙏 Paul (Chandlers Ford)

I recently visited Melanie for a session of reflexology spurred on by menopause problems. Not only did I come away feeling relaxed and calm, but I've since noticed my lower back and hip aches and pains have been greatly reduced. I also feel more centred and calm in general. I can highly recommend Sole n Soul Reflexology and EFT. It's working for me, and I can't wait to have another treatment.

By pure chance I came across Melanies website whilst looking on google maps, the name of the business caught my attention. I am so glad it did, Melanie is what I would call and earth angel, I have been having regular reflexology with her and its heavenly! I feel more relaxed, less stressed and just generally happier. Very professional and talented in her work.

I went to see Melanie as I have cauda equina and have severe lower back pain/ sciatica pain and very painful left leg. I am also a migraine sufferer. She is a warm, loving person and makes you feel so comfortable and is a great listener. I have have had a number of visits with Melanie and contunue to do so. To be honest she makes me feel new again. The thrombing pain has disappeared and I have full relief from my back pain. I am off medication- which I never thought in my life would happen. I am able to do things in my life that normally the pain restricted me doing. I would highly recommend anyone who has any health issues to atleast give Melanie a try - you will need a number of visits before you see the benefits but trust me it is definitely worth it. Thank you Melanie.

Melanie is a very bubbly character and very professional. Her treatment room is calm and welcoming. I would highly recommend her reflexology services.

Started getting my reflexology therapy from here when no one else would offer services in 2020. I suffer from constant pain and occasional emotional downs due to incurable cancer, Melanie helps me so much, knows when and when not to chat. I don't know much about the theory of reflexology but in my experience, it is doing me good. I consider it one of my essential expenses. Well worth it for the occasional break from pain.
