Workplace & Community Wellbeing
Wellbeing matters … where you live and work.
When people feel healthy and good about themselves, they are generally happier, feel more connected, positive and effective. Without this, your people and your business/community will suffer.
What can I do for your organisation or business?
I offer 20-30 min chair-based massage sessions that are ideal for a busy office or workplace to help people relax, de-stress and feel re-energised. I also provide wellbeing workshops, training, talks and also facilitate away days, retreats, coaching and workplace mediation.
Through my extensive network of wellbeing associates, I can also bring in yoga, Tai Chi, Qi Gong, clinical hypnotherapy, counselling, reflexology and nutrition.

The biggest asset of your business is you and your staff! The health and wellbeing of you and your staff determines the viability and success of your business. If you and your people cannot perform at their best, your business and your organisation is going to suffer.
According to the Office of National Statistics 2022/23, 1.8 million workers reported they were suffering from work-related ill health in 2022/23, with approximately half of the cases down to stress, depression or anxiety.
We all know a good massage helps to us relax and de-stress. But often wellbeing services are the first things to be cut when money is tight as this is seen as a luxury.
But yet when you think of the cost of sickness, absenteeism, recruitment and reputation as well as productivity, keeping your people and your organisation healthy IS your bottom line.
I’d love to help you create a bespoke programme that meets the needs of your business or organisation. Please get in touch to get started!
“We have been working in partnership with Gerry as part of our wellbeing strategy for around 7 years now, Gerry offers massage and self help expertise to our associates. Gerry is also experienced in managing stress, wellbeing and managing and improving mental health amongst many other things.
We are also working on offering our associates various wellbeing classes as we have realised that through massage sessions our associates have a wonderful connection with Gerry and often speak of their personal situation whilst having massages in confidence. I know that Gerry is truly making a difference to our team as they have been open to sharing their stories with us.
If your business doesn’t have a wellbeing strategy I would seriously suggest you implement one and I would highly recommend that you work with Gerry.”

“Gerry has supported me with a Wellbeing Programme for more than 900 NHS staff across Leeds and the quality of his holistic approach is exceptional. Gerry is not only a very skilled massage therapist, but also has a range of mind and body therapeutic interventions at his disposal to identify and treat client issues.
After experiencing just 20 mins of treatment from Gerry, one of our NHS guests became emotional as she showed me the range of movement in her arm that had been painful and restrictive for many years. I would highly recommend Shan Holistic Massage Therapy.”
