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.

I specialise in helping busy people who juggle work and retirement, family and general life to boost their energy, support their health through food and feel the best they can
I help you to feel good again, without fancy diets and foods your family won't eat - and work with you to do this even if you think you haven't got the time or headspace to make the changes.
My mission is to combine evidence-based nutritional science with practical advice and tips to ensure you can improve your health in a way that works with your lifestyle. Working with a nutritionist, I believe, needs to be do-able, produce results, and, ultimately, to be delicious!
I am obsessed with cooking and recipes, and have a passion for achieving good health through the food you eat. With growing teens of my own, I understand the challenge of cooking meals that suit everyone. I am also aware how challenging it can be to cook just for yourself, or for 2 people with different needs. Knowing what to cook that tastes great and has the best health results can be daunting - and deciding the meals alone can be half the challenge. I can help with that
We’ll focus on what you need to do nourish your body for your stage of life, and I’ll support you with health coaching to help you overcome obstacles that may have held you back in the past.
So, whether you have a specific health complaint, such as high cholesterol or blood pressure, prediabetes or digestive issues like IBS, or would like to adjust your diet to improve your sleep, energy or weight-loss, we will work together to ensure you can change how you feel in a way that suits you.
I also work with schools on specific nutrition projects for staff and the school community to improve the nutrition of students and young people, and to support understanding about the power of food to influence energy, sleep, hormones, mood and growth - an area I am passionate about. And if you are a community group who would like to have an introduction to nutrition topics, such as nutrition for healthy ageing, the importance of gut health, or perhaps food for brain health or practical superfoods, then I also host community talks too.
For young and old, it’s all about setting good habits to future proof our health. So, if you are an educator, or work in a school that is interested in finding out how I can work with your school on nutrition projects, or a community organiser interested in talks, please get in touch, it would be great to speak with you.
