18/12/2020 I had booked at last minute a deep tissue back, shoulder & neck massage.
Sarah-Ann was fantastic. Before the appointment she did a small consultation discussing the areas that needed work and true to form she worked wonders on my neck & shoulders which are my problem. Not only was she fab at delivering the massage she gave me some very handy tips and tricks to help my back in between booking further massage appointments which I’ll definitely be trying.
Very easy to book with the salon, friendly staff every time I visit & with the covid restrictions they have in place it makes me feel very safe to visit. Thank you Sarah-Ann you’re a star! ⭐️

During the massage, Emma immediately identified an area of my shoulders that I have been having issues with lately. Things do feel a lot better and more mobile after my treatment, but I’ll be looking at making a booking for the deep tissue massage as soon as I can as this is what Emma recommended to get deeper into the problem area.
