About Us

Mind · body · balance is run by husband and wife team, Chris and Kathryn Surridge. We provide a range of different complementary therapies, training courses and groups to help bring balance to mind, body and spirit.

We all have tremendous capacity to change and heal naturally. Just as we have become out of balance due to stress, ill-health or other factors, our bodies have an amazing ability to recover and come back into balance. However, sometimes we need someone to help facilitate this process, which is where we can help! 

About Chris 

I have been interested in complementary health since my mid teens. I received my first Reiki attunement in 1999 and since then have developed my expertise in working with Reiki to Master trainer level. I am also a Hypnotherapist and massage practitioner. I’m passionate about the benefits of massage, and have trained in holistic, deep tissue and sports massage, as well as myofascial release.

My intuitive understanding of the body and mind helps me to tailor treatments to my client’s needs. I incorporate various tools and techniques into sessions to maximise the benefit to the client. I have particular experience of using Reiki, body work, Hypnotherapy, meditation, visualisation, sound and energy work as tools for personal growth, transformation and healing. 

I am a passionate teacher and enjoy helping clients to find and develop along their path in life. I have a Masters degree in Development, Education and Training and a Certificate in Teaching for Adults; and taught and supported students in Further Education for nearly ten years. This background helps to underpin the training and support I provide to my clients in training courses, workshops and meditation groups.

Chris provides holistic massage, deep tissue massage, sports massage, Reiki healing, Reiki Training, Hypnotherapy and meditation groups.
