The Health Barn – just up the road from Askham Hall – provides a relaxing and tranquil space for health and wellbeing and a perfect place to be pampered while you’re staying with us…

It offers a range of nurturing therapies to help you feel and can also provide support for improved sporting performance, conditioning, injuries and rehabilitation.

The Health Barn is unique and they never offer treatments without good explanations and consultations. Their therapists are highly qualified and it is never a case of ‘in and out’ sessions. They all give their undivided attention and share any knowledge with you that may help any health issue should you need it. They are always available for a chat and allow plenty of time for you to ask questions before or after your sessions.

Ceris Owen, Doctor of Chiropractic and Christine Jackson, BA. BSc. Clinical Reflexologist, previously had separate practices but a shared dream. In 2018 they combined their practices to develop The Health Barn in Askham.

Chiropractor, Ceris, has practiced as Eden Bodyworks for over six years. Initially offering her range of bodywork massage techniques and acupuncture as a mobile therapist before qualifying as a chiropractor. Ceris’s business grew quickly and needed a base in addition to mobile work so joined the centre for Remedial Massage and Chiropractic in Penrith.

Christine completed her degree in Complementary Health specialising in Clinical Reflexology. In 2012 she took over a business in Plumpton creating Calico Health & Well Being Centre, combining her reflexology therapies with Floatation Therapy.

Christine and Ceris realised through referring clients to each other that combining Clinical Reflexology, Massage and Chiropractic treatments proved to be very effective, increasing the benefits to their clients.

In May 2018, with the enthusiastic support of our owner Charles Lowther, they took on the challenge of converting his beautiful 18th Century barn, perfectly located in the heart of Askham.
