✨ One Year in the Salon! ✨

Today marks ONE YEAR since I started this amazing journey in the salon — and what a year it’s been! 💆🏼‍♀️💆🏼

I just want to take a moment to say a massive thank you to every single client who has come for an appointment and supported me through my first year at The Sanctuary. Your loyalty, kind words, referrals, and encouragement mean the world to me. ❤️

I’ve grown so much, learned so much, and I’m beyond excited for everything the future holds. This is only the beginning!

Thank you for being part of my journey.
With love,
Helen x

NEW TREATMENT 1/2 REVEALED….

💫Manual Lymphatic Drainage Massage

Lymphatic drainage massage involves gently long sweeping massage techniques to areas of the body to help move lymph fluid to an area with working lymph vessels.

Lymphatic drainage is a type of manual manipulation of the skin, not to be confused with massage, based on the hypothesis that it will encourage the natural drainage of the lymph, which carries waste products away from the tissues back toward the heart.

💫Benefits
Reduces bloating
Breaks down cellulite
Helps with post injury swelling
Eases tension in the body
Promotes relaxation
Improves skin health
Supports detoxification
Boots the immune system

💫Available to book from October:
Manual Lymphatic Drainage Massage- 70 minutes-£45

🌿This is a full body treatment

NOT suitable for clients who have liver/kidney or heart failure, receiving treatment for cancer, lymphoma, cellulitis and deep vein thrombosis.

🧠 + 💆‍♂️ = 💚

Mental health matters — and massage can help.

Massage isn’t just about relaxing your muscles — it helps calm the mind too. When stress, anxiety, or overwhelm build up, your body feels it. Regular massage therapy can:

🌿 Lower cortisol (stress hormone)
🌿 Boost serotonin & dopamine (feel-good chemicals)
🌿 Improve sleep & emotional balance
🌿 Offer a peaceful pause in a noisy world

Taking care of your mental health is just as important as your physical health — and massage supports both.

✨ You deserve peace. You deserve care. ✨
