Claire Plain, Tiny Toes Reflexage™ Co-Creator
Claire joined forces with Emma in 2018, after qualifying as a reflexologist and taking the Tiny Toes Reflexage™ course herself.
Her own introduction to reflexology also came during a challenging period in her life. Claire was diagnosed with Hodgkins Lymphoma in May 2012. She was offered various complementary therapies to support her while she was undergoing chemotherapy and it was then that her love of reflexology began! She found it to be beneficial in helping her to manage the side-effects of her cancer treatment, as well as helping her to find some relaxation and cope with her diagnosis. After 12 rounds of chemotherapy over six months, Claire was given the all-clear and she has been cancer-free since 2013.
Since then, Claire has trained in a number of alternative therapies herself and holds additional qualifications in Reproflexology™, Advanced maternity (including postnatal care) and is also trained in Reiki. Having these alongside her Tiny Toes Reflexage™ training means that she can offer her clients a real holistic experience – treating them pre-conception, all the way through to helping their beautiful babies when they arrive. Claire has also been a primary school teacher for the last 18 years and still teaches part-time.
Claire lives in Bedfordshire with her two young daughters and husband Ben. When she’s not busy working, Claire loves travelling and spending time by the seaside (in fact, her in law’s caravan is just along the beach from Emma’s). As much as she loves reading and gardening, Claire is actually a total adrenaline junkie – she’s skydived, bungy jumped and even stood on the edge of an active volcano!
