About Carlisle Therapies
Carlisle city holistic health centre, specialising in traditional acupuncture, massage, complementary therapies & yoga. Room for hire. Opens late and weekends.
Carlisle Therapies Description
Carlisle's city centre holistic health centre. Carlisle Therapies was established by Ruth Irving in 2012 as a base for her thriving Acupuncture clinic. She converted this listed Georgian townhouse into a bespoke 2 storey holistic health centre, comprising three consulting rooms and one studio /meeting room. The centre is conveniently located in the heart of Carlisle city at 34 Lowther Street, CA3 8DH. It is just a stone's throw from Carlisle bus station, a few minutes’ walk from Carlisle train station and near main car parking sites.
Since 2012 Ruth has steadily built a team of experienced, professional and dedicated natural health care practitioners offering a broad range of complementary and alternative therapies. Some live locally, many travel to Carlisle Therapies to hold their weekly or monthly classes and /or workshops. All are self-employed and dedicated to promoting natural healthy-living choices, wellbeing and mind-body balance.
People come to Carlisle Therapies for many reasons:
• to unwind and relax – enjoy a massage, practice Mindfulness
• for nutritional advice – to aid weight loss, hormonal balance
• to relieve muscular aches & pains – acupuncture, massage
• with a sports injury – aid recovery & improve performance with acupuncture & /or deep tissue massage
• when pregnant – pregnancy yoga, hypnobirthing, moxa for turning breech
• to join a regular yoga class.
Whatever the reason, people enjoy visiting the Centre. Often people come for a treatment and join a regular class – or vice versa. Our consultation rooms are tranquil, safe and have ample natural light.
Our first floor Meeting Room /Studio hosts our busy timetable of popular weekly yoga classes and weekend workshops which focus on self-development and wellbeing. For a list of upcoming classes and workshops see our Event Diary.
If you’re interested in joining our team or running a class, course or workshop from the centre please contact us on info@carlisletherapies. co. uk. Carlisle Therapies also welcomes enquiries from mobile medics seeking a temporary space for hire in the heart of the city.

Reviews
Our clinic manager Ruth is loving her yoga teacher training here in Cumbria. The structure of the training over 8 weekend over 8 months suits her busy working life and gives time for study, assimilation and yoga teaching practice. She is finishing her training with a week’s residential in India.
Our smiles say it all! Our confidence as teachers is growing organically. Rather than a hot-house or boot camp YTT why not give yourself time and permission to learn in a calm and supportive environment. For info about this course feel free to contact Ruth or contact Deyna at Inner Fire Yoga.
First picture on the wall! Things are growing at The Yoga Rooms in Carlisle - slowly but surely, setting some solid foundations for Carlisle Therapies’ next venture. #yogaeverydamnday #yoga #yogaofinstagram #yogaclasses #pregnancyyoga #hathayoga #vinyasayoga #coreyoga #ashtangayoga #chakrahealing #meditation #relaxation #yoganidra #reiki #carlisle #carlisletherapies

Thank you to those that attended my drop-in yoga class this evening. You made it such a pleasure that I will be hosting another drop-in during the next yoga week break - Tuesday 11th September. I know it's ages away, but best to be organised! It was lovely to welcome some new faces (but admittedly old, familiar ones) to class too 🙏x

Join Emily on a Monday morning for 90 minutes of pregnancy yoga. This class runs in a 5 week block of classes, £40 for the block and pre-booking only.
During pregnancy, yoga can play a key role in enhancing the experience of this precious time and empowering the mother-to-be to have the most conscious birth experience. It is an ideal way to support your body, mind and well-being, offering you the opportunity to connect with your baby.
Prenatal yoga has many benefits, helpi...ng women to enjoy the pregnancy with minimal discomfort. These benefits include:
• increased strength, flexibility and endurance of muscles needed for childbirth, • improved sleep and blood circulation, • reduced backache and nausea, • decreased stress and anxiety.
Pregnancy yoga classes also provide a safe, peaceful and supportive environment to meet and connect with other mothers-to-be.
This class is suitable from 14 weeks of pregnancy.
Pre-booking only (no drop-ins, sorry) £40. Suitable for 14 weeks or over.

So many of our visitors and certainly my patients are gluten free or vegan. Even if you are simply interested in healthy eating and living this vegan event might interest you on Sunday 29th July at The Sands Centre.

We are delighted here at Carlisle Therapies that our talented yoga teacher and Reiki practitioner Jana Marie is hosting her next Journey to Love workshop on 30th September. Contact Jana for enquiries or to book.
How trained is your acupuncturist? If you choose a British Acupuncture Council (BAcC) registered traditional acupuncturist then the answer is very qualified.
This table compares training hours for different levels of acupuncture training. To be a BAcC member 3500 hours minimum training and for me 4 years study. To be a British Medical Acupuncture member just 30 hours (for example some nurses and sports therapists) and there are a growing number of therapists with no prior me...dical training describing their treatments as acupuncture.
I feel passionate about traditional acupuncture . Your physio is mostly likely administering dry needling and not acupuncture. Which can be extremely effective for musculoskeletal problems if used skilfully, but it is not traditional acupuncture. If you are receiving acupuncture from a therapist without any medical training then do question their safety.

Reposting this on my Carlisle Therapies facebook page as just realised I gave my new yoga class my Carlisle Therapies business card, not my Acupuncture Cumbria one. Complicated, but I multi-task! I'll be posting my yoga class info. principally on my acupuncture page so I don't swamp this one (any more than I do already) with yoga!
"First ever yoga class taught! Feels so good to do something new and thank you so much to my supportive first ever yoga class. You were brilliant.... So, we discussed a closed group to share videos to support your home practice. This is new to me to...so if you'd like to join, then please do!
Looking forward to seeing you all again next week." www.acupuncturecumbria.co.uk

I enjoyed teaching my first ever yoga class tonight so much that I've decided to repeat my beginners Sun Salutations 5 week block from Tuesday 7th August at 7.30 am- 8.30 am - a much more appropriate time to be welcoming the sun and awakening our bodies and minds.
If you wish to join this class please let me know - just £25 for the block of 5 weeks (as I'm still in training)
