World Mental Health Day
On the 10th October, we mark World Mental Health Day — a day to reflect, reach out, and remember that mental wellbeing is just as important as physical health.
At Bridgeham Clinic, we’re proud to offer a diverse range of services that support not only your body but your emotional and mental health, too. From counselling and hypnotherapy, to movement modalities like Pilates & Garuda, to therapies like massage, osteopathy, nutrition, and energy healing — it’s all connected.
In emergencies, disasters, or times of upheaval, having mental health services you can access makes all the difference. If you or someone you know is struggling:
• Reach out for a chat
• Book a consultation with one of our practitioners
• Explore healing movement or energy work
You’re not alone — and help is available.

Testimonial Prize Draw Winner!
Here is what Ms C said about her Bridgeham experience:
Paola was absolutely brilliant. I had a very painful knee and felt vulnerable and tearful. Paola was reassuring, kind and gentle, gave me a very comprehensive treatment and explained clearly what was going on and how I should look after my knee at home. I’m now back at Bridgeham four days later for a follow-up appointment, and the improvement is wonderful. It is clear from my experience here that there is a joined-up approach to treatment (I have also seen Trevor and Dan, who have both been fantastic with diagnosing and treating a previous injury); there is a professional information sharing, which I think greatly enhances the care provided. I am extremely impressed with the level of care provided at Bridgeham, and would thoroughly recommend!
If you haven't already given us a testimonial then why not write one on Google, Facebook, or by email. You too could then be in with a chance to win a £50 treatment voucher!
See you in the clinic or online soon…you’ve got to be in it to win it!
