S.Hazel Therapies

My name is Sandra, and I have over 13 years of experience working with neurological conditions, particularly Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, and Stroke.

My career began at the Hertfordshire MS Therapy Centre, where I was part of a multidisciplinary team providing rehabilitation, remedial exercise, stroke rehab, physiotherapy, and APS Therapy to individuals with a wide range of neurological conditions.

In 2019, when the charity was sadly unable to continue offering these services, I was determined to carry on the work I love. With the support of our wonderful clients, I established S.Hazel Therapies, as an affordable and accessible service for those who could benefit from continued support.

Since then, we have expanded our services to include massage therapy, supporting not only those with neurological conditions but also the wider community. At S.Hazel Therapies, we are proud of the long-lasting therapeutic relationships we have built, the trust of our clients—many of whom have been with us for years—and the relaxed, welcoming environment we provide.

We continue to be based in Letchworth Garden City, right in the heart of Letchworth. We have a private space where you can comfortably explore your potential and reach your goals. We are an easy drive from the A1m, with accessible parking and a regular bus and train service. Our premises is wheelchair accessible with facilities on-site.
