How does Rosen help?
Using touch and words to help people relax, recognise and release chronic muscle tension, Rosen can help relieve pain and stress while facilitating increased
self-awareness, acceptance and choice.
It can help people develop a friendly relationship with themselves and their bodies, so they become more themselves, leading to increased possibilities in their lives and improved self-care.
What is Rosen Method?
An approach to wholeness and wellbeing through touch.
It is a gentle, touch and word based approach to help people to become aware of what they are holding - physically and emotionally - in their bodies.
Rosen Method Bodywork helps us to inhabit and navigate the extraordinary experience of being human, in a physical body; it can help us to be more present to ourselves, to others and to the inevitable joys, pains and beauty of life.
“Through listening to the truth of the body, it is possible to discover what we can do, who we can be, what we can experience, and how we can love.”
- Marion Rosen
What clients say:
My experience of Rosen has been profound. If I had not experienced it I would not quite have believed what it did for me. It enabled me to gently re-experience and truthfully name some old emotional wounds that I had held within my body for many years. In touching and naming these wounds with the help of Jane I was able to heal tensions and pain in my body and in my spirit.
Magical.
- AF, Chief Executive, Local Government
I had been through a challenging four years, my emotional health was affected and I needed help. The Rosen Method and Jane's treatments gave me a safe environment to release emotions that felt locked within my body.
After my second treatment I had an experience the next day which is hard to describe, a powerful sensation in the lower left shoulder. It went on for about five minutes, although I wasn't quite sure what had happened, it felt like something had been released. The treatment allowed me to be vulnerable in a safe place. Jane is reassuring and professional.

Rosen really helped me to join up the dots in different areas of my life.
Something woke up in me, I had an awakening, of something dormant that’s been sleeping. Jane's facilitation of this was powerful and quite incredible, it’s like I am present in my life. I’m able to be much more engaged with my daughter, able to give her more time and attention.
The effect has been liberating.
- GR, IT Consultant
I’ve found Jane to be very empathetic and non-judgmental, and found her work using the Method to be really helpful in coming to terms with formative events spread over many years, some in conscious memory, others unconscious. The effect has been a welcome release from the discomfort that these memories could arouse.
I soon came to feel that ‘something’s changed’. I felt easier in my mind as I went about daily life. I’m glad that I continued with the sessions as the process is evolutionary. Each session has added subtle changes of mindset, which I can only describe as opening up new ways of seeing myself and relating better to others. Looking back, I’m aware of having a more laid-back outlook on life generally and am dealing with challenging situations more calmly. These benefits seem to come from being more accepting of past events that had previously troubled me. I now feel more fully aware of life around me and less inwardly focused. For me, it’s still a work in progress but the change is real and I’m confident there’s more to come. I’d recommend anyone to give it a try.

I found weekly Rosen sessions to be a gentle and effective way of revealing and progressively releasing long-held patterns of tension. It was a joy to experience Jane’s sensitive attunement and intelligent presence.
- RH, Linguist
Working with Jane is the best thing I’ve done to help with my mental health. I’ve struggled with complex PTSD for most of my life and have done loads of other therapies, all of which have given me greater insight into my condition and many skills, but nothing has really helped me manage the emotional flashbacks I have…. Till now.
I don’t really understand how it works but Jane’s use of Rosen is a very gentle therapy and with it I’ve been able to revisit traumatic events in a very safe and gentle way which has avoided my being traumatised all over again. Something fundamental has shifted in me. I’m finding I’m getting better and better at managing my flashbacks by connecting with other people instead of hiding away from people in shame.
Jane is more of a ‘fellow traveller’ than a traditional therapist. She holds my hand, both literally and metaphorically when I’m exploring something difficult that comes up in a session. She is very kind, compassionate and extraordinarily skilled.
I’d recommend her to anyone wanting to move on from unhelpful emotional patterns.
- LG, Learning and Development Consultant
A big “Thank You” for all your kindness and support, I am so deeply grateful for the work we have done in helping me process and release all the difficult stuff that I carry. You are very skilled and attuned in your work, with such a strong yet nurturing presence; holding, supporting and gently challenging.
- SW, Counsellor, Birmingham
Something as simple and as profound as knowing I can be comfortable, can ask for what I need and want, that I don’t have to endure or put up with things, and that I can accept and receive help...let myself be cared for.. this is what I am learning through Rosen, with Jane, and it’s huge.
Jane is a really skilled practitioner; kind, gentle, and very perceptive and sensitive. I’d definitely recommend her and Rosen.
- F.T.
Through her gentle touch, and the kindness Jane shows through her words and presence, she invites me to be curious about my body, my relationship with it, to explore my body's responses, delve into the emotions and memories and understand how that has played out in my life.
A Rosen session with Jane is like finding out something I always knew about myself but didn't know. It has been a rich journey so far, and I (we) have uncovered layers of myself and indeed shed some layers of beliefs that were not true about who I really am, and this has allowed me to live with more freedom and clarity. Thank you, Jane.
- Karen, Nottingham
I've truly appreciated our connection and my sessions with you. Gently touching, revealing and helping me to navigate those deep parts of myself that so often lay unattended and holding me with such nourishing care. Thank you Jane for your gifted practice and care..
- Sara
Every Rosen Therapy session I have had with Jane has gifted me with a big building block in my physical, emotional and spiritual healing journey. Rosen allowed me to safely and gently access and integrate emotions of which my consciousness was not even aware of. As a professional and as a person Jane is able to create a safe and caring environment for ALL emotions and memories to be welcomed - even (and especially) the ones I would usually try to suppress. I felt that Jane´s presence and attunement helped my body and my mind to unearth deeply buried holding patterns. Being given the space to really feel those has helped me immensely to create more space and more wellbeing within my whole self. THANK YOU!
