I have moved!
My massage space is now at my home in Presteigne. After nearly 12 years working from various spaces in and around Presteigne, I now have a beautiful room at home to work from at Silia Cottage, Warden Road.

It is a five-minute walk from the High Street in Presteigne and yet has a peaceful and tranquil feeling to it. The room overlooks our gorgeous wild garden which, I hope, offers another level of relaxation.

You can park right outside the house (reverse in or out) under the kitchen window, or park on Warden Road and walk round to the door.

There are three steps up into the treatment room. If this is a barrier, please let me know so that I can prepare to guide you through a different entrance.

From home, I will also be offering workshops in:
Facial Yoga - next Friday!
Facial Massage
Also a series of make-your own products including Bath Bombs, Body Scrub and Bath Salts

I have scheduled these over the next few months but I can also arrange a date to suit you if you have a small group of friends or family with whom you would like to share the experience.

Full details about the scheduled workshops can be found here. https://silvanskincare.com/collections/workshops

I can also run bespoke sessions to try the Silvan Skincare products and practice facial routines to suit your own skin type.

I am excited to be starting a new phase of work at this time of year. As Spring gathers pace it feels just right for new beginnings.

See you soon
