About the practice

Elena Calder

Remedial soft tissue therapist

Focuses on desk-worker posture, myofascial release, and running injury recovery.

Scope of work & boundaries

Clear expectations on what is covered and what this does not include.

Active movement assessment

Every initial visit begins with 10 minutes of standing, reaching, and gait assessment. We trace compensatory movement habits so we treat the cause, not just where it aches.

Silent appointments welcomed

If you prefer minimal conversation, select 'silent appointment' when booking or mention it on arrival. Elena will explain what she is doing and then leave you to rest in silence.

Studio standards & linens

Fresh unbleached organic cotton linens per client, adjustable heated treatment table, scent-free room, and hypoallergenic grapeseed oil. You remain draped throughout.

Illness policy

If you wake up feeling unwell, please stay home and rest. We waive short-notice cancellation fees for sickness so you never feel pressured to attend while unwell.

Frequently asked questions

What should I wear to my appointment?

Wear comfortable underwear or loose running shorts for the movement assessment. You will be fully draped with warm towels during treatment.

Is this a gentle spa massage or deep tissue?

It is remedial clinical bodywork. Pressure is firm and calibrated to your feedback, but never pushed past the point where you brace or hold your breath.

Is there parking near the studio?

Hebden Bridge station car park is an 8-minute walk away, and there is pay-and-display parking on New Road just across the bridge. The studio is completely step-free from street level.
