Reflexology… The Language of the Feet

We offer over a hundred treatments and therapies, and Reflexology has certainly been the most popular treatment this week!

Reflexology is a safe, gentle therapy that boosts the body’s healing system and helps combat stress. Reflexology is the technique of applying gentle pressure to reflex areas on the feet or hands to bring about a state of deep relaxation. It is a natural therapy that can also facilitate more vital energy, boost the immune system and create a stronger body and calmer mind.

Treating the nerve system, the digestive system, the reproductive system, the respiratory system, the circulatory system, the lymphatic system, the endocrine system, the skeletal system, and muscular system, through the hands and feet, Reflexology can offer you, so many health and wellbeing benefits.

The most amazing treatment for treating, ‘the very root of our being’ 👣

An evening of Chinese Medicine and Guided Meditation

I shall be hosting an evening of Auricular Acupuncture and guided meditation on Wednesday 20th May 2026, 7pm-8.30pm. This evening will focus mainly on general wellbeing and hormone health.

Traditional Chinese Medicine is incredible, and it works! It is a complete medical system developed over thousands of years which focuses on balance, Qi (vital energy) and harmony. Mindfulness meditation can be a wonderful way of finding peace, relieving pain, reducing stress and restoring wellbeing. These are 2 fabulous modalities, that truly complement each other. I’m so looking forward to this evening. Who would like to join us?

We have, just 5 available places. 🙂

Good health happens when our vital energy is in balance.

I shall look forward to welcoming you.

The Lymphatic Drainage Massage for the Body

My youngest daughter Mia, who is studying digital marketing at university suggested I should advertise the lymphatic drainage massage treatment that we offer, due to it currently experiencing an extreme surge in popularity. The lymphatic drainage massage is being driven by social media buzz and celebrity endorsements, it is highly sought after for its promised aesthetic and wellness benefits.

I was really pleased to hear this. Thank you Mia. The lymphatic drainage massage is a specialised technique, which has fabulous health benefits. I qualified in this amazing treatment back in 2002, so quite some time ago!

Lymphatic drainage massage is the most powerful means of cleansing the lymphatic system and bloodstream. With a combination of skin brushing, abdominal massage, lymphatic pumping of organs and a whole body massage, along with a head and face massage, headaches and indications of a sluggish lymph system will disappear.

Recommended for…
Cellulite, which relates to a sluggish lymph system; weight loss, water retention, sluggish circulation. Also for revitalising the skin, diminishing the effects of stress, improving energy levels and metabolism, invigorating the brain, those of sedentary lifestyles, and failing to take enough movement, and overburdening the body with a diet of rich or refined foods, alcohol, tea, coffee and to***co.

Why not try this amazing and relaxing treatment for yourself.

Spring!

Haven’t we had a nice week, it’s been full of spring sunshine. Alicia and I have enjoyed working with the salon window and door open at times. As you can see the spring sunshine has encouraged clients to choose more spring like shades and treatments. Vivid greens, bright yellows and pastel blossoms.

Using the best quality, certified organic and natural ingredients.

Our facial treatments have always been a popular choice of treatment. Promoting both personal and environmental health and wellbeing. The belief being that beauty comes not only from the care and nourishment of the skin, but also from the emotional and energetic benefits of vital plant essences.

Yesterday I blended together a beautiful range of essential oils for a facial client. The blend consisted of patchouli, lemongrass, sandalwood, bergamot & lemon. This particular blend can be helpful for low mood and anxiety. Helping to promote and encourage feelings of joy and happiness.

Why not add reiki, mindfulness meditation & breath work to your next treatment for a deeper therapeutic and relaxing experience.

Our Anti-aging facial treatment!

The Genie Complete Facial Treatment, instantly lifts, firms, and tightens the skin, reducing fine lines and wrinkles. Supporting maturing skin, The Genie system is especially helpful for menopausal skin that may experience collagen and elasticity loss, sagging jowls, jawline and neck, volume loss in cheeks, dehydration and dullness.

Our new advanced Genie lifestyle complete, is the ultimate toning system. The most sophisticated and powerful, non-surgical face-lift machine available in the world today. We were lucky enough to purchase our 4th new machine, In September 2025, having worked with Genie since 1999. By far the best toning system out there. I’ve worked with a few over the years!

Designed to build muscle, a recommended course of ten treatments over 4 to 5 weeks should be sufficient for you to achieve your desired results. A top up treatment is then recommended every 3 to 4 weeks to keep your facial muscles exercised. Many people notice a visible change after one treatment.

Developed by Dr. Ronald Baxendale. The medi-wave technology system was used to exercise the muscles on stroke victims, and people with Bell’s palsy condition, before introduced to the beauty industry.

As we start to age, our muscles naturally start to decline. As a holistic therapist, I believe natural is best. The Genie Complete facial offers you natural beauty.

January 🙏🏾

We’ve had a lovely start to the New Year.

Although January is always a steadier time of year after the festive season, Alicia and I are enjoying carrying out lots of different treatments. Many clients seem to be using their ‘gift of beauty/wellbeing’, gifts!

French manicures have been a popular choice of colour so far this year. Where Alicia spends most of her time in the reception area, carrying out treatments. I’m mainly hidden away in the treatment room carrying out holistic treatments.

We have a new aromatherapy kit! It’s a very special diffuser. I absolutely love it. I’m in my glory choosing the different fresh herbs, recipes and remedies for you all. Last week we enjoyed fresh rosemary and peppermint. A crisp, bright and stimulating aroma, helps wake the senses, the body and breath, whilst sharpening the mind. Especially supportive when tension builds behind the eyes, temples and sinuses.

Today, the salon aromas will be pine needles and eucalyptus. A wonderful fresh, clean aroma. Pine is invigorating and spacious. It helps reconnect you to the breath and light, when your mind feels cramped or heavy. I’m looking forward to today’s aromas. I hope all clients feel the benefits too!
