Raquel Banos
Steve Bye
My name is Raquel, I am Spanish but moved to the UK in the 2000s, I have always been passionate about the anatomy of the body, so I started training in massages in 1998, from then to now I have done lots of long and short courses, so I have lots of tools and knowledge to help your body feel happy and free of pain... I have traveled in the past, and always tried to learn the traditional massage, India was my special place, so I do have lots of Ayurveda background on my treatments, but I normally mix a bit of hot stones, thai stretches, craniosacral and myofascial techniques, soft tissue release, trigger point, dry cupping, TMJ..... I will always do my best to make you feel as "new" as possible!!!
Raquel offers massages on Mondays, Tuesday and Fridays, Sauna and Massage packages are available on Fridays only.
Hello, After gaining my qualifications in 2005 at City College, Brighton and a further level 4 Diploma in 2010, I joined the Anahata Health Clinic in Brighton where I have been working ever since. I am also very pleased to be offering additional treatments at Saltdean Lido from 2024.Saltdean is where I grew up and still live, so I'm extremely happy to be able to offer treatments to my local community. I am qualified in Sports Massage, Deep Tissue, Therapeutic massage, Aromatherapy Massage and Reflexology. You can read more about these treatments on this website. Please also check out my client testimonials, as they hopefully indicate a bit more about me. I like keeping active. I do Pilates, enjoy all sports and am a member of my local tennis club. Please feel free to contact me or you can book online for Saltdean Lido on this site. Or alternatively use the link to go to the Anahata website where online bookings can be made for the Anahata Clinic. I am a fully insured Fellow of the Federation of Holistic Therapists.
Steve offers massage on Wednesdays and Thursdays.
Kathrin Leaver-Fielding
I’m Kathrin, and I am a BANT-registered nutritional therapist and I work with busy people who juggle work and retirement, family and general like to change how they feel through the food they eat.
I combine evidence-based nutritional science with practical advice, tips and (delicious!) meal suggestions to ensure you improve your health in a way that works for you. Perhaps you want to eat well for your life stage but feel overwhelmed with all the information out there, or have a health condition you would like to support with food. Or maybe you would like more energy, sleep better, maybe lose some weight – but don’t know where to start.
When it comes to nutrition advice, it is not always clear what is right for you. I can help with this, applying the right evidence to your personal health circumstances and lifestyle and help you make the changes and feel the difference. At the Saltdean Lido, you can book a FREE 30-minute Health Review session with me – a chance to chat about your health aims, and find out how personalised nutrition could work for you – I am at the Lido on the 1st Thursday of the month, and you can book a time using the link on the Lido Classes page. If you’d like to find out what other people think about working with me – check out my website www.optimal-nutrition.co.uk (there are freebies available there too!)
I also host Nutrition Talks at the Saltdean Lido too, on topics including Nutrition for Healthy Ageing, The Importance of Gut Health, Brain Foods and Supporting Immune Health. If you’d like to change how you feel through the food you eat, come along! I look forward to meeting you.
