About The Wellness Barn Edinburgh - Holistic Health & Well-Being Centre in Edinburgh
Restoring Whole-Person Wellness in the Pentland Hills
Welcome to your local centre for holistic health, fitness, and alternative therapies in South Edinburgh, helping you move, feel, and live better.
Our Story: Inspired by Personal Journey, Driven by Community Need
The Wellness Barn Edinburgh emerged from a deeply personal mission: to fill the gaps in whole-person care that so many families face. Our founder, Man Yuen’s experience supporting her young son through challenging times as an exhausted parent with autoimmune issues highlighted how traditional care systems often fall short, even for those with professional health backgrounds.
Inspired by global approaches to wellness, from Ayurvedic traditions to Traditional Chinese Medicine, we built The Wellness Barn to offer a proactive, compassionate alternative rooted in lifestyle pillars like movement, sleep, nutrition, connection, and mindful self-care. Here, advice is never rushed; we invest time in understanding you as a whole person, so we make recommendations to fit your life, values, and goals.
Our doors opened to create what was missing: a rural centre that empowers individuals to access physical fitness, emotional resilience, and lasting well-being in a supportive, welcoming space.
Our Philosophy & Values: Integrative, Personal, Empowering
At The Wellness Barn, we believe in the power of:
Individualised care: Every client’s journey is unique. We actively listen, tailor plans based on a multi-systems assessment, and adapt support as your needs evolve.
Education & empowerment: We encourage clients to build realistic, sustainable habits, supporting changes to movement, nutrition, sleep, and mindset.
Connection: Our practitioners are chosen not just for skill, but for their collaborative spirit, commitment to confidentiality, and shared values of service and growth.
Holistic well-being: We blend evidence-based therapies and ancient wisdom to help calm the nervous system, restore body chemistry, and support your physical and mental resilience.
Our centre is more than a clinic—it’s a living community, learning from every client and one another to continually raise the standard of care in Edinburgh.

Success Stories
A University researcher was referred for backache, unable to climb, or go to the gym. She had many previous treatments from other practitioners, changed her diet and had numerous medical visits. We started with a session of dry-needling and talked about her mindset, which released old emotions along with stubborn muscle knotting. As she started to resume and paced activities, she simultaneously reported significant improvements in intimacy with her husband, with even less pain after hands-on releases from her digestive tubes (having reproduced the exact pain upon touch).
Several months later, it started to return, and although improving, we questioned whether this could be Endometriosis (scar tissue spontaneously forming outside the womb). Her GP agreed this was a possibility, a scan confirmed, but medication and further dietary changes were slow in being effective despite resuming climbing, gym and hill walking. Over 3 years later, she has returned, having had no pain at all, and they have decided to start a family and have come off her medication.

Your Wellness Journey: What to Expect
There is no “typical” pathway at The Wellness Barn Edinburgh. We begin with careful assessment and listening, building a plan around your lifestyle, goals, and challenges, whether that’s running a marathon, managing long-term pain, or simply finding more energy day-to-day.
Your programme might include a mix of fitness classes, sound baths, massage, acupuncture, or nutritional support, always reviewed and refined as you progress.
We support every step, from initial consultation and practical habit stacking to therapy sessions and regular check-ins, forever celebrating wins, troubleshooting setbacks, and helping you build a foundation for lifelong well-being.
