From 24th March, Soulistic Therapy will be relocating to Shoreham, Kent.

My hours will remain the same, and I will continue to offer weekly treatments on Wednesday & Friday plus the option of a monthly Saturday. I appreciate it may not be easy for some of my existing clients to travel to me, but I of course hope you will - it's not too far away 🥰 I will be offering all current clients, in the Orpington area, the option of a mobile service if required.

Our new home is in a rural setting and I will be offering reflexology and facial massage outside in the summer months, overlooking the stunning lavender fields at Castle Farm.

If you have any questions regarding your treatments, please drop me a line. Mel 💜 x

Another inspiring meeting with BBN, featuring the story of Martin Doyle from South East Aerials. One takeaway that really stuck with me—and feels especially fitting on this gloomy Wednesday—is his outlook on life:

💡 "Life is more about having a laugh than anything else."

A simple yet powerful reminder! Laughter truly is the best medicine, and I always find my time with the Bromley Business Network a real boost—both personally and professionally.

Wishing everyone a great week ahead—don’t forget to find the joy in the little moments!

An interesting life story from punching the school bully to running two companies. It's always fascinating to learn people's back stories.

As we leave behind the quiet of winter, it’s the perfect time to refresh, recharge, and indulge in a little extra self-care. Whether it’s a nourishing treatment, a soothing ritual, or simply taking time to move and breathe, spring offers a fresh start for our well-being.
