Deep tissue back and shoulder massage

This is the first time I have had a deep tissue massage at this salon. It was worth every penny. The therapist made sure I was comfortable with the pressure and worked hard to remove the knots in my back and shoulders. Working from home has caused a number of posture related issues but Amy made sure that I left the salon with a much more relaxed back. Thank you, enjoyed it so much have booked in for a further appointment.

At last , after 4 months I had my spot in the salon today. Andrea did a perfect job and my nails are once again presentable. Covid guidelines are clear and there are good distance restrictions throughout. All staff doing treatments were wearing visors and everything was cleaned or replaced between clients. Screens have been put in place across tables and at the reception desk for more protection. I felt extremely safe and was more than happy to be back. Thank you ladies for all your hard work. X

Thanks Nicole for my first lycon Hollywood wax, I would recommend lycon to anyone who has any bikini waxing, it’s less painful and I think you get a smoother finish. The salon followed the new guildlines perfectly ready for re opening, hand sanitiser and a face mask on arrival etc
