"Had 4 sessions with Rob to help me feel better about a current health concern. Prior to seeing Rob my GP put me on anti-depressants. Just one session with Rob was more effective than months of those tablets!
Would highly recommend Rob. He is professional, knows his stuff and is extremely approachable." 'H' had a course of hypnotherapy and later Reiki, 2022. (original review on Google)

Client Testimonials
The following (5 min long) video features a number of current or recent clients of the various therapies at Solihull Holistic Health, giving their personal testimonies of the many benefits they have received from the treatments. All are genuine clients and received no coaching. Nothing is scripted and most recorded their testimonies in a single take. Several of those featured said they would not have been able to do this kind thing prior to having treatments. (Scroll down for more written client testimonials):
"I would recommend Rob to anybody who wants to change their life for the better." (Anthony, Birmingham)
'H' was told by her doctor that she could never conceive, due to Premature Ovarian Failure, but after a course of Fertility Reflexology, combined with Hypnotherapy for positive thinking...
I just wanted to drop you a text to tell you some good news. I am pregnant! It's very early days but we're absolutely over the moon. I've just had my first doctors appointment and the doctor was amazed given my diagnosis of Premature Ovarian Failure. It just goes to show that not giving up was the right thing to do. I can't even begin to thank you for what you've done for me. Without your treatment, especially the hypnotherapy, I wouldn't have been able to overcome the negative thought patterns I had and I'm convinced I would not have been able to conceive. Thank you for everything.
It's not just the treatments that help, but Rob's holistic approach to the whole person, including discussion, advice and guidance on all aspects of physical and emotional well-being...
“I am now doing a lot better since I first came to see you. The sessions I did with you really helped me see things more clearly. I would like to thank you for the work we did as it really helped me, not just the practical sessions but also the discussions we had. It all helped me think in a calmer way.“ (Richard, Solihull)
"What can I say? The Reflexology and Indian Head Massage treatments have been amazing! I feel like a completely different person! When I go home after a session I feel like I’m walking on clouds! The Indian Head Massage has been helping with my headaches, as well as making me feel very relaxed. The Reflexology has helped me feel positive and stress free. Rob gives good advice about the best things to do and makes me feel at ease and comfortable." (Sanj, Shirley)
“I would recommend Rob Buckle to anyone. He always gives a very professional service and treatment.” (Pauline, South Birmingham)

Free 30 minute Consultation
It can be a big step to seek therapy and choose an appropriate therapist to help you make changes to your life. It can also be somewhat confusing in terms of which therapy to choose to help you the most. For that reason, Solihull Holistic Health offers you a FREE 30 minute consultation, so that you can discuss, without pressure or obligation, all possible options. It is also a chance to meet the therapist and see the treatment room/facilities.
PHONE ROB on 07738938342 to arrange your free consultation
FAQs/What to Expect if you book a treatment
As well as a thorough, professional treatment, you can expect a warm welcome and a personalised service from myself (Rob), that sets Solihull Holistic Health apart from other multi-treatment 'centres', spas and salons. I take customer care very seriously and every client is valued as a special guest in my home. The treatment room is fully equipped and roomy enough for all the therapies offered - see below for more details. The treatment room (and house in general) is prepared appropriately for every individual client. Toilet facilities are available on the ground floor, if needed. Parking is available directly outside or very near to the property, on the quiet street.
Where are the treatments done?
Treatments are usually done at my home in Olton, Solihull, where I have a dedicated treatment room that is separated from the rest of the house and has beautiful garden and sky views.
Address: 34 Dene Court Road, Olton, Solihull, B92 8DL
What are your opening hours?
Tuesday - Thursday 9am - 7.00pm approx (last appointment 5.30pm)
Friday - 9am - 5.30pm
Saturday - 10am - 5pm
Monday - Admin only
Closed Sunday
Is there parking available ?
Yes. Dene Court Road is a relatively quiet street, so parking is usual possible right outside or very close to the property.
Is Solihull Holistic Health a large centre?
No. Solihull Holistic Health is a trade name that describes the services I provide. I work from home, but have a full dedicated, fully equipped treatment room, that is at least as comfortable as any 'centre' treatment room, with a great aspect to the rear of the property.
How early should I arrive before my appointment?
It is best to arrive as close to your appointment time as possible, as I may have other clients booked in either side of your appointment. The treatment room needs to be fully prepared for each client prior to the treatment, so if clients arrive more than a few minutes before the appointment time I may not be ready and there is no waiting room or receptionist!
What happens if I have booked an appointment and can not attend? Will I have to pay the full fee?
No. Provided you give ample notice, which is usually around 24 hours or as much as is possible in the light of emergencies etc. If you have booked an appointment and do not attend without notice, you may be asked to pay, as you have booked my time and may have caused a great deal of inconvenience as well as often depriving others of the opportunity to book a treatment at that time.
To make an appointment today, call Rob Buckle on: 07738 938342

About Solihull Holistic Health
Solihull Holistic Health was established in 2008 by Rob Buckle (MAR/Reiki Master and GHR member) and is located in the leafy suburb of Olton, Solihull. It is easily accessible from Solihull, Olton, Shirley, Knowle, South Birmingham and many other parts of the West Midlands. Treatments are usually done at 34 Dene Court Road in Olton, but home visits can be arranged, if necessary, to do treatments at clients' premises, in surrounding areas, such as Olton, Knowle, Dorridge, Shirley and South Birmingham.

About Rob Buckle (MAR, GQHP/ADPR, Reiki Master, BA Hons)
I discovered the benefits of natural/holistic health in 2007, in an effort to stem a lifetime migraine issue. My doctor advised me to take pain-killers, as there was, apparently, ‘nothing else’ that could be done! I began researching ‘alternative’/ holistic health remedies and found a world of new possibilities. For example, I discovered that reflexology has been known to help with migraines and ease stress, so I decided to book a course of treatments with a reflexologist who had been recommended to me. A few short weeks later my life had changed! The migraines almost completely stopped and my energy levels improved no-end! I was so impressed I decided to train as a reflexologist!
Most of my previous career had been spent in teaching (adults mainly), so stress and had always been a factor in my life! I was made redundant twice within 4 years at one stage of my career, which caused me a great deal of stress and anxiety for a prolonged period, affecting my health adversely – particularly the debilitating migraine headaches. I have since found my own healing and ways to deal with stress and anxiety and I believe my experiences give me the knowledge and empathy needed in order to help others with similar issues.
My own journey has allowed me to see first-hand the effects of a stressful life on health, but also how holistic therapy can help in the healing process. Since qualifying as a Reflexologist I have undertaken a considerable amount of further training to add depth and variety to my healing skills. For example, I have trained in Reiki and reached Master Level in 2010, I trained in Hypnotherapy and reached Advanced Practitioner level in 2015 and I have most recently qualified as a Stress Management Consultant. I, therefore, now feel fully equipped to offer a variety of treatment solutions to help clients with the vast majority of conditions that they present me with.
Since discovering holistic health I have realised that my true passion in life lies with natural health rather than for teaching and in 2015 I finally made the transition from teacher to natural health practitioner. I now work on a full-time basis at Solihull Holistic Health, am completely committed to helping the clients that come my way - and couldn't be happier!

The Treatment Rooms
Although Solihull Holistic Health is a home-based practice, there is a dedicated and fully-equipped treatment room that is separated from the rest of the house.
Equipment:
2 Lafuma reclining chairs - one is the latest (2019) model, the Lafuma 'Air Comfort' recliner - which is probably the most comfortable chair you will ever sit/lie in!) - and the other is the Lafuma XL Recliner (2019 model), which is a larger style chair, ideal for people who need a longer or wider chair. These chairs are ideal for reflexology and hypnotherapy
An adjustable, padded, full size massage couch for Reiki, Pain Genie treatments and reflexology (if preferred).
A comfortable, padded chair, with a low back for Indian head massage
A second treatment room is also on permanent standby. This room is smaller, but more sound-proofed (from external noise) and better shaded from the sun and can be made available on request. The treatment rooms (and house in general) is prepared appropriately for every individual client.
See pictures below of the treatment rooms at Solihull Holistic Health. The first one shows the Large (Lafuma) reclining chair, the Indian head massage chair, the Thai Seated Back Massage chair and the Reiki couch (folded).
