Treated my feet and toes to a Voesh 4 in 1 luxury spa pedicure at the weekend. Different ‘flavours’ to choose from. Opted for Watermelon which smelt delicious. Thea did her usual attention to detail pedicure including varnish. Left the salon walking on air, as legs, feet and toes felt very pampered.

Thank you for your valuable feedback however unfortunately the cost of delivering treatments has increased considerably. Sadly, the business has had to endure a total of 9.5 months of forced closures and restrictions in the last 2 years followed by a very difficult trading environment and frequent covid cancellations alongside inflationary & government mandated increased staff costs which were hardly supported by grants which did not cover our rent let alone other non staff costs. In order to safeguard jobs and continuity of the business we must operate to be profitable as we have consumed our cash reserves as well as taken on extra borrowing. As our last price increase was July 2020 we are expecting a small increase again thanks to energy & other cost increases to the business . We hope that you can understand the challenges we have faced to safeguard our staffs jobs and that you continue to see value in the service your preferred therapist offers.

Lisa and Thea both advised Carole i shoukd be rescheduled which i was twice. This salon is so responsible and really look after their clients to the enth degree.
Once again when i did have my treatment it was so relaxing, effective and everyone was so friendly yet professional i could not possibly fault this salon nor their treatments.
Enjoyable, accomodating and a real treat.
