Touch Therapy Massage

Business Details

Your Holistic Massage Therapist in Wool, Dorset

Touch Therapy Massage was founded by Claire Wilcox, a fully qualified and registered Holistic Practitioner with over 20 years of experience in the wellness industry. Having worked in prestigious spas and hotels across Dorset, including The Pig on the Beach, I transitioned from a high-pressure IT career to establish my home-based treatment studio in Wool. My practice focuses on providing bespoke holistic therapies tailored to individual needs, combining professional expertise with a deep understanding of natural well-being. The serene environment in a Georgian vicarage surrounded by thatched cottages offers clients a tranquil space to de-stress and rejuvenate. My treatments integrate aromatherapy, reflexology, and massage techniques to address physical discomforts while promoting mental relaxation. I prioritise personalised care, ensuring each session addresses specific client requirements through tailored essential oil blends and adaptive pressure techniques.

The studio uses Evolve organic skincare products for facials, reflecting a commitment to natural, results-driven treatments. With flexible appointment options and accessible amenities including ample parking and proximity to public transport, the practice aims to make holistic therapy convenient and inclusive. Client testimonials consistently highlight the transformative effects of regular treatments on stress management, sleep quality, and overall vitality. My dedication to continuous professional development ensures treatments remain aligned with the latest holistic health insights while maintaining an authentic, client-centred approach.

I've been having treatments by Claire for a couple of years since moving to Dorset. I would not go anywhere else. After a treatment I've always felt relaxed, de stressed & simply wonderful all over.
Claire is friendly, professional & provides an excellent choice of treatments that she'll adapt to suit your needs, depending on how you're feeling. I would most certainly recommend Claire.

Claire's professional as well as personable and her treatment space feels like a sanctuary for relaxation. She's very good and discerning as well of what treatments clients may need.

I first visited Claire when I had severe back pain about 3 years ago and have continued to have regular back/shoulder massages since. Her excellent massage treatments have helped me to avoid further back problems. Claire is always professional, ensuring she understands any particular target areas or needs. She is very friendly, happy to chat but being sensitive to when the client wants quiet. The treatment room in Claires house is calm and relaxing, and there is always off-street parking available in front. I would definitely recommend Touch Therapy for massage treatments.
