workplace wellbeing in manchester
Nervous system stress support that helps people feel better and perform better.
I help Manchester businesses reduce burnout, improve emotional regulation and build resilient, high performing teams through somatic stress support, breathwork and science backed workplace wellbeing.
This is wellbeing that goes beyond perks. It's your competitive advantage
A Different Approach to Workplace Wellbeing
All of my workplace sessions are guided by a simple, science backed framework that supports sustainable performance without burnout.
The SCP Framework
Safety
Helping the nervous system feel psychologically and physiologically safe, the key to a well functioning individual.
Capacity
Expanding emotional, cognitive and energetic bandwidth so people can think clearly, communicate well and handle pressure.
Performance
Supporting clearer decision making, stronger leadership and sustainable performance rooted in wellbeing, not exhaustion.
This framework keeps the work grounded, repeatable and adaptable to different teams, industries and business contexts.
I’m Clare - your Somatic Stress & Breathwork coach
In a previous life, I worked across multiple industries and countries. At the time, I didn’t have the language for what I was witnessing. I just knew that people thrived in some environments and shut down in others.
It’s only through my later training and expertise that I now understand the common thread: people perform at their best when their nervous system feels safe.
My work blends somatic psychology, breathwork and nervous system science to create real, embodied change, not quick fixes or box ticking wellbeing days.
Organisations choose me because people feel different in the room: grounded, open, calm and capable.
FAQ.
What is workplace wellness and how does it improve employee performance?
Workplace wellness is a strategic approach to supporting the physical, mental, and emotional health of employees so they can perform at their best. When wellbeing is embedded into the way a business operates and not treated as an optional perk, it leads to measurable improvements in focus, productivity, resilience, and decision‑making. Healthy employees work more effectively, collaborate better, and recover faster from stress, which directly boosts overall business performance.
Why should Manchester businesses invest in workplace wellness as a performance strategy rather than a perk?
Many companies still treat wellbeing as a “nice to have”, but the organisations seeing real results use it as a performance lever. When workplace wellness is aligned with business goals, it reduces burnout, improves retention, and strengthens team culture. Manchester businesses face fast‑paced, competitive environments and a performance focused wellbeing strategy helps teams stay engaged, motivated, and able to deliver consistently high quality work.
What workplace wellness services do you offer for companies in Manchester?
I provide a range of evidence‑based workplace wellness services tailored to Manchester organisations, including workshops, training sessions, leadership coaching, wellbeing audits, and ongoing support programmes. Each service is designed to improve performance, reduce stress, and create healthier working environments that support long‑term success.
How does workplace wellbeing impact productivity, retention, and company culture?
When employees feel supported, they’re more productive, more loyal, and more invested in the company’s mission. Workplace wellbeing reduces absenteeism, improves concentration and helps teams manage pressure more effectively. Over time, this creates a culture where people feel valued and motivated, which strengthens retention and makes the organisation more attractive to top talent.
Can workplace wellness programmes reduce stress and burnout in high‑pressure teams?
Yes. High‑pressure teams often operate at speed and intensity, which increases the risk of burnout. A structured workplace wellness programme gives employees the tools to manage stress, maintain energy levels, and build resilience. This leads to better performance, fewer mistakes and a healthier, more sustainable working rhythm.
How do you measure the impact of workplace wellness on business performance?
I use a combination of qualitative and quantitative measures, including productivity indicators, engagement scores, absenteeism rates, staff feedback, and performance outcomes. By tracking these metrics before and after implementation, businesses can clearly see the return on investment and understand how wellbeing initiatives are influencing performance.
Do you offer workplace wellness workshops or training onsite in Manchester?
Yes. I deliver onsite workshops and training sessions across Manchester, as well as virtual options for hybrid teams. These sessions are practical, interactive, and designed to create immediate improvements in performance, communication, and wellbeing.
What types of companies benefit most from performance‑focused workplace wellness?
Any organisation that relies on people performing at a high level can benefit—whether it’s tech, healthcare, education, finance, creative industries, or professional services. If your business depends on focus, innovation, teamwork, or client‑facing performance, a wellbeing strategy will strengthen your results.
How quickly can businesses see improvements in performance from workplace wellness initiatives?
Some improvements—such as reduced stress and better team communication—can be seen within weeks. More significant changes, like increased productivity or reduced turnover, typically develop over several months as new habits and cultural shifts take hold. The key is consistency and alignment with business goals.
Do you offer customised workplace wellness programmes for Manchester organisations?
Absolutely. Every organisation is different, so I design tailored programmes based on your team’s needs, challenges, and performance goals. This ensures the approach is relevant, practical, and aligned with your company culture.
What makes your approach to workplace wellness different from traditional wellbeing perks?
My approach focuses on performance, not perks. Instead of offering one‑off sessions or generic wellbeing activities, I work with organisations to create long‑term, strategic changes that improve how people work. It’s about building healthier systems, stronger teams, and sustainable performance—not just adding yoga classes or fruit bowls.
How can small businesses in Manchester implement workplace wellness without a large budget?
Small businesses can make a big impact with simple, strategic changes. This might include improving communication, setting healthier boundaries, offering short training sessions, or creating a culture that supports wellbeing. I also offer cost‑effective workshops and consultations designed specifically for smaller teams who want to improve performance without large‑scale investment.
