Expert Wellness For Healing & Transformation

I’m Maria Flanagan, an Integral Sound Healing Practitioner with nearly two decades of experience in wellbeing. From my treatment room in Church Stretton, and in venues and workplaces across Shropshire, I offer calm, gentle spaces where you can put everything down for a while and simply be looked after.
Does this sound familiar?
You finally set aside an hour to rest, then spend it scrolling, or tidying, because resting feels like something you have to earn first.
You fall into bed exhausted, then lie awake in the early hours thinking about tomorrow’s list, or someone else’s problems. And when the alarm goes, you wake up tired again.
Or some days everything just feels like too much. Your shoulders are up by your ears, your thoughts won’t slow down, and a quiet sense of anxiety follows you around, even when nothing in particular is wrong.
You’ve found ways to cope. You’re good at coping. But coping isn’t the same as letting go, and the moment you stop, your mind starts.
If you’re the one everyone relies on, your own needs can slip quietly to the bottom of the list. Sometimes it feels as though something is in the way, and however hard you try, you can’t quite get past it.
Imagine being the one who’s cared for
You want to stop running on empty. You want rest that genuinely restores you, rather than just more hours in bed. You want a little space that’s just for you, without needing to explain or justify it.
Most of all, you want to feel like yourself again. Calmer, less overwhelmed and more settled in your body. Lighter, as though you’ve finally put something down. And cared for, for once, instead of always being the one who cares.
You’d love to be able to rest without feeling you have to earn it first.
If you’re ready for a gentle space where you can simply arrive as you are, with support from someone who takes the time to understand how you really are on the day, I’d love to help.

You’re in experienced hands
For nearly two decades, I’ve supported people through restorative wellbeing practices, first as a Reflexologist and Reiki Master, then as an Integral Sound Healing Practitioner trained with the Sound Healing Academy, one of the longest-established sound healing schools and leading authorities wordwide.
I know what it’s like to carry a lot. When I found sound healing, I was caring for my mum, who had dementia, raising my two daughters and running my business. Sound gave me a way to care for myself, and it shapes everything about how I care for others now.
I regularly hold space for groups of all sizes, including public sound baths, workplaces, along with charities.
What people say
“Lovely, welcoming, peaceful and relaxing. I really felt very at ease with Maria. The treatment was so lovely, long lasting positive effects of feeling calmer.”
“From the moment I met her, I felt an incredible sense of warmth. Her presence was nurturing, and I always felt calm and supported during our sessions.” – Amanda
“I loved how you led the session and enjoyed the moments of silence as well as the sound… I felt calm yet light and energised at the end of the session.” – Jane
“I could certainly feel, in the room… that you were setting and holding the highest of intentions. It was really beautiful.” – Staisha
Be the first to know
My sound baths and seasonal events often fill quickly. Join my mailing list and you’ll be the first to hear about new dates, with priority booking, inspiring news, freebies and gentle tips to support your wellbeing.
It’s also the best way to hear about my future retreats, future courses, and the return of the wild swim, sauna and nature sound bath in spring.
Not sure where to start?
That’s completely fine. A free, no-obligation phone call is a relaxed way to talk about what you’re looking for and whether working together feels right. Whether you’re thinking about a one-to-one session, a sound bath for your team or something for your retreat, I’d love to hear from you.
