In the quiet coastal town of Barry, a beautiful sanctuary has opened its doors — one that promises not just rest, but a profound reset. Reset Wellbeing is a purpose-built studio where science meets stillness, offering a curated blend of emotional, mental, and physical therapies designed to restore balance from the inside out.
At its heart are two exceptional practitioners: Ruth John, a multi-award-winning therapeutic specialist in nervous system health, and Zoey Bailey, who holds an honours degree as a complementary healthcare practitioner. Zoey’s tailored treatments bring ethical luxury to every touchpoint.

Zoey Bailey: Ethical Touch and Tailored Wellness
Complementing Ruth’s emotional work is Zoey Bailey, a BSc (Hons) Complementary Therapist trained to university level in massage, reflexology, and aromatherapy. Her treatments are designed for those navigating chronic pain, tension, aches, and fatigue — whether from chronic illness, long hours at a desk, post-exercise recovery, or the quiet toll of daily stress and anxiety.
Zoey provides holistic, compassionate care that treats each person as a whole.
Her work is grounded in professionalism, integrity, and respect.
She uses high-grade therapeutic essential oils and natural methods to restore balance and promote wellbeing.
She aims to empower clients through calm, personalised, and nurturing treatments.
Her signature offerings include:
– Holistic Facial with lymphatic drainage— a sensory experience that nourishes skin and calms the nervous system
– Buccal Facial Massage — targeted intraoral massage to release deep facial tension
– Reflexology — is a gentle therapy that works on specific points of the feet to support the body’s natural healing process. It helps reduce stress, restore balance, and promote overall wellbeing.

Beyond the treatment room, Zoey handcrafts made-to-order essential oil products — including balms, body butters, bath salts, and bespoke blends — using ingredients that align with her ethical and therapeutic standards.
