Michelle Davis
Deep Self-Understanding
for women who want to understand the patterns shaping their reactions, decisions, and bodies.
I help women understand themselves in a way they never did before, so they stop overriding who they are.
You look steady on the outside.
You are capable, thoughtful, you’re the one people rely on, but you’ve started noticing something.
How quickly your yes arrives, even though your body is screaming no, how tight your body feels after “letting it go”, how long you replay conversations in your head, days or weeks after the event, how often you question your own reactions.
You don’t feel chaotic, you feel contained, like you are whirling within the same familiar walls. And you might have a sense there’s a deeper reason for that.
You’re not broken.
But you are running patterns that once made sense, patterns that formed when being agreeable felt safer. Patterns that helped you cope. Patterns that still shape how you react, often before you think.
You may already suspect there’s an emotional root and you’re right. Until those roots are understood, the pattern repeats. It’s not because you lack awareness.
It’s because awareness alone isn’t enough, it isn’t integration.
You don’t need to fix yourself.
You need to understand yourself at the root. When something makes sense, emotions loosen.
When emotions loosen, the body softens. When the body softens, you stop disappearing in the moments that matter. You begin to trust yourself without forcing it.
And that in turn, changes how you move through your life.
When the body feels safe, change doesn’t have to be forced. It happens on its own.
this work is for you if…
You’re self-aware, but still find yourself repeating the same reactions.
Maybe You’ve noticed yourself shrinking in moments that matter and you want to understand why.
You sense there’s an emotional root to what feels “off,” even if you haven’t fully traced it yet.
You know something deeper is shaping your reactions, your decisions, or your body.
You’re ready for depth, not a quick fix.
You’re willing to look at your patterns honestly, and to understand yourself properly, not just manage what shows up.
Hi, I’m Michelle,
I guide women through deep self-understanding — so they can see clearly what’s been shaping their reactions, their decisions, and their bodies.
This work isn’t about fixing you.
It’s about making sense of you.

Testimonials
I had the most amazing introduction to EFT group session incorporating movement, meditation, and sound. Highly recommend FLOTSAM and Michelle. The mediation was wonderful and it incorporated the woods environment that we were in. Lovely little touches with the flower essence and sprig of Yew Tree. Definitely helped me release a lot of emotions and felt so much better for it.

Michelle led me through some EFT with two main purposes- to release some family stresses of the last few months and also to prepare for an interview the next day.
I was able to truly connect with my feelings and feel they were validated and important.
It was crucial for me to try to re-focus my attention onto myself and to feel calm.
The session was enjoyable, enlightening and emotional- in a good way.
I felt stronger yet calmer afterwards, I slept like a log and woke up invigorated. I was ready for my interview and was able to draw upon tapping just before and during the tasks I was set.
I am yet to hear the outcome re the job but I feel free, calm and positive moving forward. Thank you Michelle! ……(Just a little note to say…. she got the job! Yay!)

The emotional shifts in one session were incredible—from starting with feelings of helplessness to gaining a quiet inner strength. There were several “aha” moments encompassed in tears and moments of laughter during the session. Michelle has great empathy, capacity to listen, and she led me through the EFT session at my own pace. An extremely professional approach from initial booking, during the session, and follow-up contact after the session. I would highly recommend Michelle to anyone wishing support in any aspect of their healing journey.

I had heard of EFT and was intrigued to see what it actually was and if it worked. My session with Michelle was incredible; exceeding any and all of my expectations. Her calm, professional, and open approach created a safe space that allowed me to go deeper than expected, with the end result of feeling simultaneously energized yet calm. Since my session, I have been able to let go of both material and emotional stuff that I had been scared to release, which has created space in my home and head. Thank you so much, Michelle!

During my session with Michelle, I found new hope for a health-related goal I'd been wanting to achieve for a long time. Her listening skills created such a safe and welcoming environment that I was able to release self-judgment and see new possibilities. The entire experience was deeply supportive.

I've been seeing Michelle at Flotsam Holistic for holistic therapy/ reiki for a while now and I always leave feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. The Reiki sessions are particularly powerful and I always feel a deep sense of calm afterwards. The treatment room is beautifully decorated and creates a very cozy and relaxing atmosphere. I highly recommend Flotsam Holistic to anyone seeking holistic healing.

Wow! What an amazing experience! Michelle is a kind and patient therapist and her vibro acoustic massage was a real treat. I felt completely relaxed and felt the beneficial effects the following day. I’d highly recommend a session.

“I saw Michelle for a reiki session and it was the most relaxing treatment I have experienced. She explained everything so well, didn’t make me feel at all rushed, and sent a lovely follow up post-treatment. I can’t wait for my next session!”

“Michelle is a wonderful intuitive Reiki healer and the healing space in her home is very calm and comforting. She very kindly allows as much time as is needed for a discussion before and after the session, and I never feel that her sessions are rushed. Michelle offers invaluable after-care by sending an email after the session detailing what was discovered during the healing from her perspective and she provides further useful and beneficial advice. I find this really helpful as it is easy to forget what happened and what was discovered during the healing session! I always sleep extremely well after Michelle's Reiki healing and feel fully restored back to a place of health and peace. I highly recommend Michelle's Reiki healing session. Thank you so much Michelle! :)”

I met Michelle when she was still operating from her home , about a year ago. I was hurt and in pain emotionally as my relationship was triggering all my childhood insecurities and not being able to deal with it. I always picture that day as being in a dark place when I arrived at Michelle's. My heart and my soul longing at a much needed relief. The intake took some time as Michelle is very thorough in understanding the context and the root of the issue to be able to clear so to speak the dark clouds. We started with affirmations and EFT tapping. I cried a lot that day , all that kept energy , blockages and disturbance was released gradually. Felt so light and got that smile back in my head. Whatever comes I can handle it and I know how. I followed these session with Reiki. A very uplifting session to work on these blocked energies and get my batteries filled with the soft and strong energy from Michelle. My advice to anyone reading this, Please work on yourself from within, don't try to change your outer world. I can never thank you enough Michelle, you are beautiful inside and out. A very beautiful being who I am very honoured to know.

Michelle has helped myself and my 2 daughters separately through difficult personal circumstances with EFT.
It was easy to feel comfortable and relaxed in her lovely home studio and my daughter enjoyed meeting the dog!
Michelle’s compassion and calmness has helped us to individually reduce the anxiety and pain associated with trauma in a peaceful and safe space.
We had not experienced EFT before and were reassured and surprised by the positive effect the practice has had and continues to have on us.
Michelle was able to explain clearly what would happen and the repeated cycles of tapping were very powerful in reducing the intensity of negative emotions. Tapping is something we have been able to access easily in any setting where you might feel stressed and anxious.
Michelle enabled me to identify and lessen unhelpful and long entrenched beliefs which have held me back for many years. I was able to better understand myself and use self-compassion to take away longstanding feelings of shame, guilt and sadness.
I particularly appreciated the written feedback from Michelle after each session. She was able to summarise the session and which helped me to reflect and to continue to tap on difficult emotions.
We found that booking sessions of 3 most helpful. Set in the beautiful village of Broughton, there is a lovely cafe and beautiful country walks which was useful whilst I waited for my daughters.
We feel particularly fortunate to have met Michelle and would recommend her highly! Thankyou! I am looking forward to trying Reiki.

“Michelle is a really down to earth and grounded person which makes the sessions very relaxed and enjoyable. I’d especially recommend her EFT and Reiki combined practice, they work really well together as techniques and I always come out feeling lighter and calmer afterwards.”
