There's a therapist for everyone. This morning, this person found theirs.

The hair do is from my rejuvenating scalp enhancement, offered as a 15 minute add on to any treatment. Bookable online or via me at time of booking.

Helpful for calming busy minds...
Using either coconut or calendula oil I work deep into the scalp using a mixture of invigorating and relaxing Indian head massage techniques. The head is cradled and wrapped in a warm towel for that feeling of weightlessness and being held like a new born baby.
The result is total bliss 😊

If you too would like to recreate this vogue look (!) You too can add on the rejuvenating scalp enhancement to your next treatment.

BTW client gave me full permission to post this photo!

Essential kit of a massage therapist (from last nights event).

✨️Essential oil spray
✨️Essential oil blend
✨️Wipes for hands
✨️Cloth for hands
✨️Business cards
✨️A pen
✨️Gift vouchers
✨️A nail file
✨️A clock (very important).

As I applied the first drop of oil to the forehead of the first woman in the room, I remembered the first time a yoga teacher dropped oil on my forehead during sivasana. It was after a dynamic flow class in London about 12 or so years ago. I almost melted right there into the mat. There's something about receiving hands on when you've just done yoga that makes one even more receptive to the benefits. I've felt it myself.

After led us through an hr of wonderful heart-opening yoga, I encouraged every person to be just as they were. I worked intuitively (not a routine) with each person depending on how they were lying.

Some shamanic drumming at the start and end helped to bring folk in and out of the relaxation. The use of aromatherapy sprays and essential oil blends of jasmine, geranium, clary sage, orange, patchouli and frankincense helped to soothe end of week nervous systems and encourage a deep relaxation.

It was a great night - heart nourishing and the energy in the room was magic. Thanks everyone who came along - for your presence and participation. When's the next one?!

Roberta 💜
Ps having too much fun to take any more photos!

Hey Folks,

Later this year, I'm going to be opening a wellbeing space in Milngavie. Whilst that's all getting prepared, I am going to work with the lovely team at Love Pilates and in Milngavie.

My days will remain the same. However, my hours will change slightly. This will include availability on the last Friday of every month. I'll post my new hrs on a separate post.

If you have an appointment scheduled with me for Strathblane Road, I will be getting in touch directly to let you know where and how to find my new space. Its right next to Milngavie train station!

I can't wait to be offering my therapies from this gorgeous space from next Monday 9th Feb ✨️

The more I open my heart to life, the more space I create for living a good life.

When I first trained as a massage therapist 12 years ago I was met with a variety of responses from existing therapist. Some opened their heart to me and helped to learn and grow. Some were closed off and even quite hostile.
I decided then that I would always see others in my field as opportunities, not threats. I believe in the abundance of the Universe and that like attracts like. And that the right people will find themselves to the therapist that is right for YOU. Such an individual choice.

My experience is that when I put out kindness it always comes back to me in some way, shape or form. When I feel myself going into a space of wanting to keep everything for myself I know I need to go do some meditation and deep breathing. It's fear and its a natural human response. Bringing the attention back to the breath, back to the hear and now, can help dissipate this fear.

I have booked for a massage with Karen on Saturday and I can't wait to give my body this wonderful gift.

This is how much oil I use for my rejuvenating scalp massage! My version is a bit calmer than this though. Also I love good ear crack at the end. Not for everyone. You can advise if this works for you 😆
