🌱 Think of your Bowen session like planting a seed, the growth happens afterwards!

When you come in for a Bowen therapy session, we may only have an hour together, but the real magic happens in the hours, days, and weeks after.
What you do in that time can make a big difference to your progress and long-term results.

Whether you’re just starting out or coming in for maintenance, I’m here to support you every step of the way. Your journey to feeling healthier and happier is a team effort: my guidance and your commitment work together to get the best results.

After your first session, you’ll receive a HANDY AFTERCARE PAMPHLET with all the tips you need to look after yourself. For clients on an initial course, I also check in 7 DAYS AFTER YOUR LAST SESSION to see how you’re feeling, review progress, and plan the next steps.
This follow-up is all about making sure you feel supported and confident in your healing.

Bowen therapy isn’t just about what happens on the therapy couch, it’s about building a relationship, understanding your body, and giving you the tools to keep moving forward. 💛

“I work with scars gently — because the body already knows how to heal when it feels safe.”

Many women don’t come to Bowen for their scar.
They come for their back, hips, breath, fatigue or other problems.
The scar is often part of the conversation the body has been waiting to have.

Bowen Therapy offers a calm, respectful approach to scar tissue and fascia, supporting the nervous system, restoring ease, and helping women reconnect with their bodies especially after cesarean birth or hysterectomy.

If this is the conversation you're ready to have then please contact me, I offer all new clients a FREE 15 minutes call to see if the work I do is a good fit for you 😊

If you have reactive skin.
If you have a sensitive nervous system.
For moments that need slowing down. Then you need a HYDROLAT!
A hydrolat is essential oil at its most subtle.
Created during steam distillation, orange flower hydrolat holds the plant’s water-soluble compounds — calming, cooling, and beautifully gentle.

WHO I HELP AND HOW

If you feel unheard in your body, you’re not alone.
You might be living with pain or tension, struggling with menstrual concerns, or navigating fertility challenges and the emotional weight of trying to conceive.
You may feel tired, overwhelmed, or unsure why your body won’t fully settle.

My work is gentle and respectful.
I use Bowen therapy to support your nervous system and your body’s own capacity to rebalance, alongside aromatherapy to help you care for yourself between sessions at home.
This is support that doesn’t rush, force, or override your body.

Your body listens first and responds with softness.
You are welcome here, exactly as you are 🥰

ENTERING 2026 WITH THE STAR BLUESTONE AROMATHERAPY COLLECTION

This collection continues into the new year as a heartfelt tribute, created in loving memory of my daughter Jessica, who loved all things holistic and aromatherapy.

NEROLI (with essential oils of Neroli & Frankincense)– uplifting & balancing

ROSE (with essential oils of rose otto, rose damascena geranium & patchouli) – nurturing & comforting

The collection includes face & body creams and lotions, hydrating gels, hydrolats, facial oils, a gentle plant based cleanser, 7 different pulse-point remedies, 3 versatile body/linen/room spritzes, and a selection of mini 100% soy wax candles which compliment the range perfectly.

The aromatherapy range is thoughtfully made by my wonderful supplier based in Melton Mowbray, who has worked with me with such care, compassion, and understanding throughout the creation of this collection.
The candles are handmade by John and Misty, owners of Lyn Candles Workshop Lynton North Devon Lyn Candles Showroom & Studio whose skill and heartfelt approach bring warmth and light to this tribute.

💛 Cruelty-free | Vegan | Ethically sourced
💛 100% essential oils & botanicals

Don’t forget that 10% of every sale is donated to Teenage Cancer Trust via Work for Good helping to support young people facing cancer.

** HELLO 2026! A NEW CHAPTER FOR WOMEN'S HEALTH & HORMONAL BALANCE **

As we step into 2026, I want to gently call out to the women who are carrying more than they should in their bodies.

🤍 The women navigating painful or irregular periods

🤍 Those living with hormonal imbalances, fatigue, mood changes, or headaches

🤍 Women trying to conceive, feeling the emotional and physical weight of fertility challenges

🤍 Those moving through perimenopause or menopause, managing symptoms like hot flushes, sleep disruption, tension, anxiety, brain fog, or aches that seem to come from nowhere

🤍 Women who feel disconnected from their natural cycle or no longer recognise their body
If any of this resonates, please know this: your body is not failing you, it’s asking for support.

Bowen Therapy is a gentle, holistic approach that works with the nervous system, hormones, fascia, and natural rhythms of the female body. It supports women through every phase of life, helping the body settle, regulate, and restore balance without force, manipulation, or overwhelm.

2026 is an invitation to slow down
To honour the wisdom of your cycle
To choose care that listens to your body rather than fighting it
You don’t have to push through pain, discomfort, or exhaustion anymore. Whether you’re menstruating, trying to conceive, transitioning through perimenopause, or embracing life after menopause, support is available, and healing can feel gentle.

✨ Let 2026 be the year you prioritise your health
✨ The year you feel more balanced, supported, and connected to your body
I’m here for the women who are ready to listen to their bodies and say yes to feeling better.

As the year gently comes to a close and the Christmas season arrives, I’ve been thinking about this past year and the kindness I’ve been shown.

Losing my eldest daughter Jessica (or Jessie as she was affectionately known) last November 2024, has changed this year in ways I could never have imagined, and navigating life without her has been incredibly hard for my family and I, and still is, yet I’ve also felt so much care and understanding from others.
To everyone who offered patience, support, or just space when it was needed....thank you. It has meant more than I can say.

This Autumn, I launched Star Bluestone Aromatherapy in Jessica's memory, and it’s been wonderful to see it welcomed so warmly.
I’m truly grateful to everyone who supported my new venture and to my clients who trust me with their ongoing well being through Bowen Therapy.
Your kindness and support mean so much, and I feel lucky to share this journey with you.

I hope to see you for more Bowen therapy in 2026.
My diary opens again on Friday 2nd January where I am available to take bookings 😊 until then...
I wish you a peaceful Christmas and a calm, gentle New Year ahead.

Warm wishes
Nikki x

This time of year often comes with a lot of pressure to feel joyful – but Christmas isn’t easy for everyone. For young people with cancer, the festive season can be incredibly tough.

While many are planning celebrations, some are spending Christmas in hospital, going through treatment, or waiting for scan results that could change everything. Others may be recovering after treatment, grieving the loss of someone they love, or simply not feeling the festive spirit.

At Teenage Cancer Trust, we understand how hard this time can be. That’s why we’re sending love to anyone who needs it today – whether you’re facing a diagnosis, supporting a loved one, or navigating life after cancer. You’re not alone. 💙

✨ What a Weekend to Remember! ✨

Today (Sunday 14th) was an absolute triumph at the K9 Focus Victorian Christmas Market & Dog Show 🐾🎄 the atmosphere was buzzing, the dogs were fabulous, and the support was incredible. We’re so grateful to everyone who came along and made it such a successful day!

We took Star Bluestone Aromatherapy Collection to Barnstaple Pannier Market, where my super helper, my youngest daughter , and I had a stall and were so pleased by the response.
There was a lovely, steady flow of people throughout the day, with so many visitors turning into happy customers.

Our banner sharing the story behind the brand sparked some really meaningful conversations, and it was wonderful to raise awareness that 10% of every sale goes to the Teenage Cancer Trust
Knowing that each purchase helps support such an important charity made the day even more special and a real tribute to Jessica x

What often goes unseen is everything that leads up to those days. The early mornings, late nights, planning, packing, creating, and believing ... even when it feels exhausting, all play a part, from prepping and packing the Star Bluestone Aromatherapy Collection, to checking labels, loading boxes, and making sure everything was market-ready, these quiet moments are where it all begins

A heartfelt thank you to K9 Focus for having us 🥰
and we’re so grateful to be part of such a well run and welcoming event.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by, supported us, shared kind words, and helped make the day a success. We couldn’t do this without you 💜
