VERY IMPORTANT UPDATE

Good morning everyone, I'm posting to let you know that there is a slight change to deposits when booking online. So instead of paying 50% upfront on fresha, fresha will do a card capture instead. This means that if anyone cancels or reschedules with less than 48 hours, or does not show up for an appointment, the card is then charged through fresha. It also means that the total amount is payable at your appointment instead of splitting it half and half as you're used to when booking online.
For those who pay their deposits during your appointment towards your next one, this will remain in place and won't change.
The reason for the change is when paying 50%up front via fresha, they like to take a nice big cheeky slice of the cake and this has an impact on cash flow. So for the sake of my sanity and bank account I've changed it to card capture 😄 the cheeky bar stewards!

I know some of you prefer to pay half up front when booking online as it feels like a better payment system for you, and if this is the case, drop me a message and we'll sort something out.

Fingers crossed this still works to reduce cancellations and no shows but I guess time will tell so please be patient with me whilst I navigate this and put it to the test.

Many thanks! Emma xx

If you ever think something looks super fun but super hard, do it anyway... if you've no sense 🤣
What do I do on my days off from massaging my lovely customers? I go hurt myself that's what 🫠

I apologise in advance if my battered and bruised body can't give quite 100% this week, I feel like I need to recover 😄

Good morning beautiful peeps! Tis the weekend and for many, the chance to lay in and eventually roll over and doom scroll in bed with a brew (unless you have children) 🫠
Aaaanyhooooo... whilst you're flicking through having a chortle at cat videos or snooping on the latest drama of Susan down the road (no judgement here!)...I ask you to spread the kindness of popping onto Google and leaving me a review please? 😊
Reviews make an enormous amount of difference and it only requires 1 minute of your time after which you can get right back to watching puss on a Roomba 😄

Thank you SO much!!!

Love em ###

ANNOUNCEMENT TIME!!!

A few weeks back I had a 'f**k it' moment and printed off my CV and cover letter and drove over to the sports therapy clinic in Morley and handed over the envelope to the owner telling her who I am and that I want a job 😄 turns out being gutsy and to the point occasionally serves its purpose 😆
I'm very pleased to announce that I'll be joining the team on a Thursday, from August, as a sports massage therapist and I'm super excited!

Don't panic though guys, as I say, it is one day a week so that I'm still around for my loyal and bloody fantastic customers.

There are also some other exciting things to come in time... so watch this space 😉

Much love! Emma ###

Ey up ya gorgeous bunch. Seems I can't do a poll on here? (thanks FB very helpful ya d*ck) 👍

Sooooo..... instead I'm just going to ask the question and hope that I get people answering via comments. Now bare with me because it needs context, (put the kettle on, get a brew and a box of maltesars and sit yo b***y down)... I shall begin.

Now lately my brain has been whirring (it doesnt take much), and I have scrambled egg brain. So I have been thinking 2 things.... 1 was do I do a physio degree and be waaaaaay more advanced OR 2.... do I introduce talking therapies into the business so that it is all encompassing wellness?

Turns out... after some extensive research, soul searching, and a lengthy heart to heart with the husband over a sharing platter of meats and goodness...that physio is a NOPE option for many reasons which I won't bore you with as I'm conscious I am already waffling. Weirdly though I was almost relieved to come to this conclusion because many a moon ago, and occasionally since, I often loved the idea of being a counsellor/ psychotherapist. I LOVED the psychology part of my social work degree and the learning behind it just comes SO naturally to me.
Not only that but over the years many customers have said, and still say, that I would make a great therapist.

The barrier and reason for my question is this.... I am going to have to start at level 3 (done once a week for year), then move onto level 4 which is once a week for 2 years (I can only work with clients upon getting level 4). THEN I would either need to do an MA in integrative therapies or do extended training in more advanced psychotherapy, at which point I should then be in higher demand.

It is a long time to commit, luckily I can afford the level 3 and get funding for level 4 but might find beyond that tricky (however that's like 3 years away and I might be married to a millionaire by then...sorry Ste!) 😂 also... I'd offer counselling upon completion of level 4 but theres uggins of counsellors in Fax so I am up against competition so I could potentially do aaaaalllll that for nowt.

Now for the question......

1) Do I stay in my lane and maintain my sanity and put it to bed. or 2) Bloody do it.

I await your input with anticipation.

Over and out! ###
