Treatment

Deep-Rest Massage

1 hr 30 mins£100

If you’re feeling tired but wired, struggling to switch off at night, or waking up still exhausted, this treatment is designed for you.

My Deep-Rest Massage is a slow, soothing 90-minute experience created to help your body soften out of “doing mode” and into a state of deep rest - the place where your nervous system can settle, your breathing can deepen, and sleep comes more naturally.

This session focuses on the parts of the body most connected to stress, overwhelm, and sleep: the back, neck and shoulders, legs, face and scalp — with gentle abdominal massage included as a key part of the treatment to support digestion and relaxation.

Expect long, unhurried strokes, comforting stillness, and a steady rhythm that helps your whole system slow down.

You’ll leave feeling grounded, lighter, and deeply cared for - the kind of calm that stays with you long after you’ve gone home.

(This treatment is ideal for women who carry tension, overthink at bedtime, or simply need a deeper level of rest.)

All treatments can be personalised to you.

Full Body Massage

1 hr£67

The top-to-toe full body Swedish massage is a very relaxing treatment that covers the feet, legs, back, neck, shoulders, arms, hands, scalp and face.

The main goal of Swedish massage is to calm the body and mind, and lightly release muscle tension. A combination of firm and lighter strokes to the muscles will be applied, with the goal of relaxing the muscle tissues and increasing blood flow to the heart, using non-scented and hypo-allergic Grapeseed Oil.

Full Body Massage - extended

1 hr 30 mins£97

Back, Neck and Shoulder Massage

40 mins£45

Foot and Ankle Massage

30 mins£36

Hot Stones Back Massage

40 mins£55

A deeply soothing back massage using smooth, heated basalt stones to gently ease muscular tension and encourage your body to relax.

The warmth of the stones allows muscles to soften more quickly than with massage alone, helping to release tightness across the back, neck and shoulders while promoting a profound sense of calm. Slow, flowing massage techniques combined with comforting heat make this an ideal treatment if you're feeling stressed, overwhelmed, carrying tension or simply in need of time to unwind.

This treatment focuses on the back and neck and is designed to help quiet a busy mind, support your nervous system and leave you feeling lighter, calmer and restored.

Facial Lymphatic Drainage Massage

45 mins£56

Facial lymphatic drainage massage uses light, rhythmic massage techniques to stimulate the lymphatic system, which is responsible for removing toxins and waste from the body.

Anyone can benefit from this facial treatment which encourages lymph flow, reduces fluid retention and helps to detoxify the skin.

The facial starts with a cleanse to remove any surface dirt and toxins and hot towels are used to open up the pores. Next, serum and lymphatic techniques are applied to the neck, chest, face, scalp. The facial concludes with moisturiser and eye serum.

All the products I use are from Neal's Yard Remedies.

Hopi Ear Candling with full Lymphatic Drainage Facial

1 hr£70

Hopi Ear Candling (also known as Thermo-Auricular Therapy) is an ancient practice that is gentle and non-invasive. It can help provide relief from symptoms of ear congestion, sinusitis, and allergies. Additionally, it can have physical benefits from relieving tension headaches to reducing the feeling of pressure in the head. Furthermore, ear candling has a calming and soothing effect on the body and mind, which can help alleviate the symptoms of stress, anxiety, and insomnia, promoting a state of emotional balance and wellbeing.

No ear wax is removed from the ear during the treatment but you may find a slight discharge of wax coming away naturally from the ear post treatment - usually this occurs whilst showering.

This treatment includes facial lymphatic drainage massage which can help promote drainage of lymphatic fluids to reducing build up in the sinuses. It can also help ease tension in the facial muscles and aid general relaxation. I use Neal’s Yard Products which are certified cruelty free and organic by the Soil Association.

I only use Biosun Hopi Ear Candles which are made by hand using premium quality, pesticide-free, untreated cotton together with beeswax and honey extract. They are 100% Organic and the only Ear Candles to carry the CE 0535 label of conformity, certified medical products according to the EU Medical Device Directive 93/42/EEC.

You will experience a pleasant crackling sound which is akin to being near an open fire and a gentle warmth from the candle burning, both of which many people find deeply relaxing.

About

I qualified at the London School of Massage and specialise in slow, deeply relaxing massage for women who feel stressed, overwhelmed, or disconnected from their bodies.

My work is rooted in Swedish massage, with a strong focus on calming the nervous system, easing tension, and supporting rest rather than “fixing” or pushing the body. Pressure is always adapted to your preferences, and communication is encouraged throughout.

I am trauma-aware and intentionally create a safe, judgement-free space where you can fully relax, soften, and feel held. Many of my clients come to me looking for time out from busy lives, emotional load, burnout, or ongoing stress and to simply feel like themselves again.

Struggling with sleep? I'm also an accredited sleep coach and offer one-off sessions as well as my '28 days to better sleep' plan. Contact me for more information or a free consultation call.

Sessions are unhurried, respectful, and tailored to you. This is a women-only practice.

I’ve started visiting Helen regularly and genuinely look forward to every visit. From the moment you walk in, she creates a warm, safe and welcoming atmosphere where I always immediately feel at ease.

Helen is caring, kind and genuinely attentive, with a wonderful ability to understand what you need while focusing on areas that need extra attention. The massages really help to relieve the aches and pains. Her calming nature and thoughtful approach make it easy to let go of any tension, unwind completely and enjoy a truly relaxing experience.

She is incredibly skilled at what she does, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her. Helen really is exceptional! ❤️

I was given a back, neck and shoulder massage voucher as a gift. The experience was wonderful from start to finish. I felt completely listened to, understood and appreciated throughout. Helen was very thorough, she took her time and expertly adapted her technique to my particular needs. I would highly recommend using Helen for your monthly massage. Peaceful, trustworthy and professional.
