Something a wee bit more personal from me

T e n Y e a r s ✨️

December 2026 will mark 10 years of me being a Massage Therapist and starting my own business.

To celebrate I am offering £10 off my favourite treatment- The Wee Wellness Ritual, for the entire month of December!

If you'd like to book in, either book via Booksy link or message me directly.

Adding "Sweater Shop jumpers" to this list too....

Online booking link is in the bio folks 😉

The 7th step really makes the difference 😉

Things I wish my clients understood more 😘

* You don't need a "reason" to book a massage

* You don't need to apologise for any "imperfections" you think you have

* The treatment is tailored to you, just ask

* You're allowed to be silent during your treatment

One thing I would love to normalise within the wellness industry is clients feeling confident enough to ask their massage therapist about their training, qualifications and experience.

Massage therapy is a hands on skill that involves much more than simply learning a sequence of movements. A good understanding of anatomy, physiology, contraindications, client care and practical experience all play an important role in providing safe, effective treatments.

When I first looked into training, I remember feeling really confused by the huge difference in course lengths- from weekend courses to programmes lasting many months... yet they offered the same level of qualification. For me personally, I wanted a deeper understanding of the body and to feel truly confident in the work I was doing, which is why I chose a longer, more in-depth route.

Now, almost 10 years into this industry, I’ve spent countless hours continuing to learn, develop and refine my skills through further training, hands-on experience and ongoing education - because I believe the learning never really stops in this profession.

Clients should never feel awkward asking questions about a therapist’s background, training or approach. Feeling safe, informed and comfortable with the person treating you is important. 🤍
