✨ NEW — DERMAPLANING FACIAL ✨

I’m so excited to now be offering Dermaplaning Facials from my little garden studio. 🤍

Having recently completed my training, I’m delighted to add this beautiful treatment to my facial menu, I absolutely love the fresh, smooth finish it gives the skin.

I’d love for some of my lovely existing clients to be among the first to experience it. 🫶🏻

Dermaplaning gently removes the build-up of dead skin cells and fine facial hair, helping to reveal beautifully smooth, soft and fresh-looking skin underneath.

Your 60-minute facial combines professional dermaplaning with nourishing skincare and plenty of time to relax, because I believe a facial should be about more than just your skin. It’s also about giving yourself an hour to pause, breathe and switch off. 🫧

✨ Smooth, soft and fresh-feeling skin
✨ Gently removes surface dead skin cells
✨ Removes fine facial hair
✨ Helps leave the complexion looking brighter and more radiant
✨ Creates a smooth canvas for makeup
✨ Perfect as a little pre-event skin refresh

📩 If you’d like to be one of the first to experience my new treatment, just send me a message. I’m also happy to answer any questions and let you know if dermaplaning is suitable for your skin.

A little time for your skin. A little time for you. 🫶🏻

✨ REFERRER OF THE MONTH ✨

What a lovely surprise to be recognised by the amazing team at BodyEvolve Chiropractic as their Referrer of the Month.

Their words honestly mean so much to me, especially because I only ever recommend people and businesses that I genuinely believe in.

As a massage therapist, I see every day how stress, tension and the demands of life can show up in the body. That’s one of the reasons I value my own chiropractic care so much and why I’m always happy to recommend BodyEvolve to my clients when I feel they could benefit from another piece of the wellbeing puzzle.

The team at BodyEvolve are knowledgeable, professional and genuinely caring, and I always feel so well looked after when I’m there.

Thank you for the lovely recognition and for everything you do. 🫶🏼

And if you’ve been thinking about looking after your body a little more, consider this your sign to give them a shout.

Bodywork + chiropractic care + looking after yourself = a pretty good combination. 🫶🏻

What does a Reiki experience actually feel like?

This is something I’m often asked, and the honest answer is… there isn’t one answer.

Reiki is a very personal experience.

From my perspective as a therapist, I don’t see Reiki as something you have to believe in. I see it as an opportunity to slow down, become still and turn your awareness inward.

We spend so much of our lives living in our heads, thinking, planning, worrying, anticipating and trying to control what comes next.

Reiki offers you a chance to step away from all of that for a while.

As you become quieter, you may become more aware of your breath, your body, your emotions and the sensations within you. Some people experience warmth, tingling, heaviness, lightness or a feeling of deep relaxation. Others simply feel peaceful or still.

And sometimes, people describe something that is harder to put into words.

A sense of connection.

For me, this is where the idea of energy and frequency comes into the experience.

Whether you understand that through spirituality, energy, meditation or simply as your nervous system finally being given permission to slow down, the experience can feel incredibly profound.

You don’t need to empty your mind.

You don’t need to know how to meditate.

You don’t need to have any particular beliefs.

You simply arrive, breathe, and allow yourself to be present.

And perhaps, when we become quiet enough, we reconnect with a part of ourselves that gets lost beneath the noise of everyday life.

That peaceful observer.

That stillness.

That feeling of being connected to something beyond the constant chatter of the mind.

You don’t necessarily think your way into that experience.

Sometimes you simply feel it.

And that’s one of the reasons I love Reiki so much.

There is nothing you need to achieve.

Just space to pause, reconnect and experience what is already within you. 🤍

If you’ve ever wondered what a Reiki session might feel like, perhaps this is your invitation to experience it for yourself.

This morning’s walk reminded me how much nature reflects our own journey.

This tree has a huge wound in its trunk, yet it’s still standing strong. Life continues to grow around it, even though it’s carrying scars. And from that wound, nature is doing what it does best, transforming, healing and creating something new.

So many of us carry things that can’t be seen. Stress, grief, exhaustion, overwhelm… we learn to keep going, often without giving ourselves the time to rest and recover.

Healing doesn’t always mean returning to who you were before. Sometimes it’s about finding balance, creating space to breathe, and allowing yourself the care you’ve been giving everyone else.

If you needed that reminder today, this is it. Be gentle with yourself. 💚

Meet my chiropractor, Dr. Débora Marques.

As therapists, we’re brilliant at looking after everyone else… but sometimes we need someone to look after us too.

A few months ago, I was struggling with a misaligned right hip, a tilted pelvis and sacrum, and constant pain. It was affecting not only my everyday life but also my ability to comfortably provide the massage and bodywork treatments I love.

From my very first appointment, Dr. Débora took the time to assess everything thoroughly, explain what was happening, and create a treatment plan that gave me confidence. With every adjustment and session, I’ve felt stronger, more balanced, and so much more like myself again.

As a massage and bodywork therapist, I know the value of skilled, hands-on care. This experience has reminded me that healing is often a team effort, and I’m incredibly grateful to have Dr. Débora in my corner.

Thank you for helping me continue doing what I love supporting my own clients to move better, feel better and live with less pain.

If you’re looking for a knowledgeable, caring chiropractor, I can wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Débora Marques at Body Evolve, Gee Cross. BodyEvolve Spinal Health

I am back from holiday… and back doing what I love.

I’ve had a wonderful break, and I’m back in the garden studio with just a couple of appointments available this week.

✨ Tuesday: 11.30am & 1.30pm
✨ Wednesday: 12.30pm

Are you feeling…

• Tight, stiff or achy?
• Carrying stress or feeling overwhelmed?
• Running on empty?
• In need of some time that’s just for you?

You don’t need to know exactly what treatment you need… that’s my job.

Every appointment is a Bespoke Experience, beginning with a consultation where we’ll talk about how you’re feeling, both physically and emotionally.

From there, I’ll intuitively create a treatment that’s completely tailored to you, blending the techniques your body and mind need most on the day.

A treatment that’s uniquely yours, designed to leave you feeling lighter, restored, refreshed and recharged.

If one of these appointments is calling your name, send me a message and I’ll happily reserve it for you. 🧡

Even I have to remind myself

I’ve realised lately how easy it is to spend so much time looking after everyone else that you forget to look after yourself.

As someone who works in wellness, even I have to remind myself that slowing down isn’t something you do once everything is finished. It’s something you choose because your mind and body deserve it..

Not with unrealistic goals or endless to-do lists, but with small moments of kindness towards yourself.

A little more rest.
A little more laughter.
A little more fresh air.
A little less guilt.
A little more saying “yes” to the things that fill your cup.

You don’t have to have it all figured out.

You don’t have to be productive every day.

You are already enough.

So if July is your reminder of anything, let it be this…

Just love yourself. 💛

Women are so good at caring for everyone else that they often forget to care for themselves.

Massage isn’t just a luxury it’s an investment in your physical and mental wellbeing. Regular treatments can help you feel calmer, move more freely, sleep better, and reconnect with your body before stress becomes pain.
