Promoting high quality health services.
The Studio was opened in March 2025 by psychotherapist and breathwork coach Ann-Marie James. After trying different venues for movement therapy and somatic practices, Ann-Marie found a need in the area for a flexible holistic healthspace. Ann-Marie brings 20+ years of clinical experience alongside 15 years as co-director of Reading’s leading psychotherapy centre.
A modern and safe approach
The Studio aims to support modern health therapies with proven safety profiles, particularly emerging body-based therapies focused on the health of the nervous system. Ann-Marie is a doctoral researcher at the University of Bath and is currently planning a clinical trial in breathwork for stress which will be conducted mainly at The Studio.
