Hello! I’m Anna, and I’m the proud owner of Sole and Body Work, right here 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 really cherished, but after almost two decades, I felt it was time for a change. I decided to take a big leap and 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 counselling. It was during this time that I became interested in how our emotional and physical health are interconnected.
In 2022, I decided to train as a reflexologist, and I added Swedish massage to my skill set last year. Over the years, I’ve learned that stress, trauma, and emotions can have a lasting effect on our bodies. Talking therapies are essential, but body work plays a vital role in the healing process too. My goal is to help people find balance, relaxation, and healing through holistic treatments.
I’ve lived in Dysart for 25 years now, and it’s here where I offer my treatments. Sole and Body Work is a dream come true for me. I started my business last year, but I had to take a pause when I had a serious 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 really is too short not to take risks!
At Sole and Body Work, I offer reflexology and Swedish massage treatments, and I’m excited to share that I have completing training in Menopause Reflexology with Sally Earlam.
If you're looking to unwind, ease stress, or just treat yourself, I’d love to meet you. You can book your treatment through my Instagram or Facebook pages, the Setmore booking app, or just send me a message directly—I’m always happy to chat!
I’m really looking forward to connecting with more of the lovely people in Kirkcaldy. Thanks so much for reading, and I hope to see you soon!
