𝘼 𝙂𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙡𝙚 𝙎𝙚𝙖𝙨𝙤𝙣𝙖𝙡 𝙈𝙚𝙨𝙨𝙖𝙜𝙚
December arrives with its warm lights, celebrations, excitement, and moments of togetherness. Christmas and the New Year invite us to reflect, to rejoice, to share in love and connection. It can be a truly beautiful time of year.

And yet, for many, this season holds a wide spectrum of emotions. It can bring joy, but it can also stir memories, expectations, and old stories within us. Depending on where we find ourselves internally, our sense of safety, security, connection, and how the year has unfolded, this time can feel tender, overwhelming, or even heavy.

The busyness of the season can tip into chaos. Stress and anxiety may creep in or arrive suddenly. Expectations, those we place on ourselves or those we feel from others, can leave us disappointed, questioning our worthiness, our belonging, or our lovability. Our inner child may tug at us, touching old wounds or familiar triggers. Grief, sadness, guilt, or quiet loneliness may surface softly or speak loudly.

If this time of year feels challenging for you, please remember this:

𝘽𝙚 𝙜𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙡𝙚 𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙝 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧𝙨𝙚𝙡𝙛.
Do whatever supports you in staying grounded, soothed, and nurtured.
Meet yourself exactly where you are, without judgement.
Recognise that it is “silly season,” and you are only human : beautifully, naturally, imperfectly human.

You are lovable.
You are worthy.
You are enough.... Without the pressure, without the performance, without the frills.

As we move through this season, may you find moments of softness, rest, connection, and care. And may you remember that showing up as your true self is more than enough.

Warmly,
Claire

As the season slows, it gets darker, and more demand is put on our internal resources, our Nervous System may be working harder to stay balanced. Struggle can showing up as overwhelm, disrupted sleep, digestive tension or a sense of alertness.

𝙂𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙡𝙚 𝙍𝙚𝙡𝙚𝙖𝙨𝙚 𝙑𝙖𝙜𝙪𝙨 𝙉𝙚𝙧𝙫𝙚 𝙏𝙝𝙚𝙧𝙖𝙥𝙮 supports the body in this seasonal shift through stillness, soft touch and nervous system ease, helping you return to balance and steadiness.

𝙒𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝘼𝙧𝙚 𝙔𝙤𝙪 𝙍𝙚𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙮 𝙇𝙤𝙤𝙠𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙁𝙤𝙧 𝙒𝙝𝙚𝙣 𝙔𝙤𝙪 𝘽𝙤𝙤𝙠 𝙖 𝙎𝙚𝙡𝙛-𝘾𝙖𝙧𝙚 𝙏𝙝𝙚𝙧𝙖𝙥𝙮 𝙎𝙚𝙨𝙨𝙞𝙤𝙣?

One word: 𝙀𝙭𝙥𝙖𝙣𝙨𝙞𝙤𝙣.

When you step into a space of gentle-touch therapy, you’re stepping into a space designed for expansion on every level — physical, mental, emotional, and energetic.

These therapies invite safety through therapeutic touch.
Safety leads to softening.
Softening leads to relaxation.
Relaxation opens the breath, the tissues, the muscles, the organs — all the different systems of the body that are constantly communicating, working, and adapting to support your wellbeing.

𝙀𝙭𝙥𝙖𝙣𝙨𝙞𝙤𝙣 𝙞𝙨 𝙬𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙝𝙖𝙥𝙥𝙚𝙣𝙨 𝙬𝙝𝙚𝙣 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙗𝙤𝙙𝙮 𝙛𝙚𝙚𝙡𝙨 𝙨𝙖𝙛𝙚 𝙚𝙣𝙤𝙪𝙜𝙝 𝙩𝙤 𝙡𝙚𝙩 𝙜𝙤.

It’s the unwinding of tension and the releasing of old patterns and restrictions.
It’s the return of movement and flow.
It’s the nervous system shifting out of survival mode and back into balance.
It’s the body remembering how to function optimally when it is no longer holding itself in protection.

And while expansion supports your physical body, it also does something equally powerful:

𝙄𝙩 𝙘𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙩𝙚𝙨 𝙨𝙥𝙖𝙘𝙚 𝙞𝙣 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙙.

Space to breathe.
Space to think clearly.
Space to process and integrate.
Space to respond instead of react.
Space to feel resilience, calm, clarity, and inner steadiness.

In a life that often feels tight, rushed, or overstimulated, expansion becomes a kind of medicine.

Gentle-touch therapies offer you the opportunity to return to yourself — not by doing more, but by allowing more space within.

Because deep down, when you book a self-care session, what you’re really seeking isn’t just relief.

You’re seeking expansion.
You’re seeking the version of you who can move through life with more softness, clarity, and flow.

And that is exactly what your body knows how to find when it is given the right support.

My Facials go far beyond traditional skincare. Each treatment blends advanced facial techniques with deeply therapeutic bodywork principles to support not only your skin, but your whole wellbeing.

Rather than offering solo product-focused facials, I also take a holistic, intuitive approach that integrates:

𝙈𝙞𝙣𝙙𝙛𝙪𝙡 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙧𝙖𝙥𝙚𝙪𝙩𝙞𝙘 𝙩𝙤𝙪𝙘𝙝 – Techniques inspired by TCM, Craniosacral Therapy, and Gentle Release Therapy to calm the nervous system, ease tension, and restore energetic balance.

𝙒𝙝𝙤𝙡𝙚-𝙗𝙤𝙙𝙮 𝙛𝙤𝙘𝙪𝙨 – Unique elements like abdominal work, fascia release, and energy-flow techniques support detoxification, letting go and deep relaxation from within.

𝙁𝙪𝙡𝙡𝙮 𝙩𝙖𝙞𝙡𝙤𝙧𝙚𝙙 𝙩𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙩𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩 – Every Facial is customised to your skin’s needs, incorporating organic botanicals, advanced technology, and depending on time given, techniques such as lymphatic drainage, acupressure, gua sha, cupping, ultrasonic exfoliation, and LED therapy.

𝙍𝙚𝙨𝙪𝙡𝙩𝙨 + 𝙬𝙚𝙡𝙡𝙗𝙚𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙘𝙤𝙢𝙗𝙞𝙣𝙚𝙙– You receive professional, results-driven skincare alongside therapeutic techniques that help reduce stress, rebalance the body, and support inner healing.

𝘿𝙚𝙚𝙥𝙡𝙮 𝙣𝙪𝙧𝙩𝙪𝙧𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙚𝙭𝙥𝙚𝙧𝙞𝙚𝙣𝙘𝙚 – My Facials create a space for profound calm, renewal, and self-connection — leaving your skin glowing and your whole system restored.

𝗡𝗼𝘁 𝗦𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗪𝗵𝗶𝗰𝗵 𝗙𝗮𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝘁𝗼 𝗖𝗵𝗼𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗙𝗮𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗠𝗲𝗻𝘂? – 𝗝𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗕𝗼𝗼𝗸 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗧𝗶𝗺𝗲
60 mins | 75 mins | 90 mins

Book the length of time that feels right for you, and I’ll tailor your Facial on the day to meet your skin, your energy, and your emotional needs.

This option is perfect if:

● You’re overwhelmed by choices

● Your skin changes week to week

● You simply want to be cared for and guided

● You trust a more intuitive, nurturing approach

Claire

𝙃𝙤𝙬 𝙀𝙨𝙨𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙞𝙖𝙡 𝙊𝙞𝙡𝙨 𝙒𝙤𝙧𝙠 :
When you inhale an essential oil, the scent molecules travel directly to the brain’s emotional center, influencing mood, relaxation, and nervous system balance. They can also absorb through the skin to ease tension and support overall skin health.

𝙒𝙝𝙮 𝙄 𝙐𝙨𝙚 𝙏𝙝𝙚𝙢 𝙞𝙣 𝙏𝙝𝙚𝙧𝙖𝙥𝙮:
Essential oils don’t just benefit the skin — they shape your experience. They help your body soften, your mind settle, and create a comforting space where you can truly unwind.

A moment of care.
A moment of balance.
A moment for you. ✨

𝙒𝙝𝙚𝙣 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙗𝙤𝙙𝙮 𝙬𝙝𝙞𝙨𝙥𝙚𝙧𝙨… 𝙖𝙧𝙚 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙡𝙞𝙨𝙩𝙚𝙣𝙞𝙣𝙜?

So often, we carry tension, worry, and emotion in silence — the shoulders that ache, the jaw that tightens, the heaviness we can’t quite name.
Your body holds on… until it’s given permission to let go.

𝙂𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙡𝙚 𝙍𝙚𝙡𝙚𝙖𝙨𝙚 𝙏𝙝𝙚𝙧𝙖𝙥𝙮 (GRT) offers that space.
A soft, nurturing treatment rooted in 𝙏𝙧𝙖𝙙𝙞𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣𝙖𝙡 𝘾𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙚𝙨𝙚 𝙈𝙚𝙙𝙞𝙘𝙞𝙣𝙚, it works with the body’s natural energy systems — gently easing stress, calming the nervous system, and restoring the natural flow of Qi (energy).
No needles, no pressure — just light touch, awareness, and the wisdom of your own body doing what it knows how to do best: heal.

Clients often describe it as feeling deeply peaceful, grounded, and lighter — as if something has quietly shifted.

If your body has been asking for rest,
If your mind has been holding too much —
this is your invitation to receive.

Sometimes, even when we think we’ve moved on from a stressful or painful experience, our Body tells a different story. During times of distress, the Nervous System shifts into a state of protection — it prepares us to fight, flee, or freeze. But what happens when that protective response never finds completion?

Our Mind may move forward, but the Body often holds on. It’s as if the physical self quietly tucks away those intense moments — storing them as pockets of tension, stress, or “imprints” deep within our tissues. At the time, this is the Body’s way of caring for us, doing its best to keep us safe and functioning.

Over the years, though, these imprints can accumulate. They may rest quietly for a long time, but eventually, the body begins to tire. The more it walls off these old layers of stress, the harder it becomes to stay in balance. That’s when discomfort, pain, or dysfunction can begin to surface — gentle messages from the Body asking to be heard and released.

These imprints are like stones dropped into a still pond — their ripples spread through our systems creating patterns which influencing how we move, feel, and even think.

CranioSacral Therapy offers a gentle, deeply restorative way to meet these patterns. Through light touch and deep listening, it helps the body unwind what it has been holding, allowing the Nervous System to settle and the natural flow of healing to return.

Your Body has always been doing its best to care for you. CranioSacral Therapy simply helps it remember how to find balance again — softly, safely, and with profound respect for the wisdom that lives within you.

Claire

𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐒𝐥𝐨𝐰𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬: 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐑𝐞𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐧 𝐭𝐨 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟
In a world that moves quickly, our bodies often lag behind — tense, tired, and quietly asking for us to slow down. Intentional slowness isn’t about doing less; it’s about being present with what you’re doing.

When we pause and move with awareness, something shifts. The mind becomes clearer, the breath deepens, and the body begins to release what it’s been holding. This is the space I create through my Facial and Body Therapies — where stillness allows you to reconnect, reset, and find clarity beneath the noise.

Taking time to slow down mindfully can help regulate your nervous system, support natural healing processes, and bring you back into balance with yourself and your surroundings.

1. You move through your day on autopilot, barely noticing your environment

2. You realize you’ve been holding your breath or clenching your jaw without knowing it

3. Your thoughts are scattered and your focus drifts easily

4. You feel physically tense but can’t identify why

5. You crave deep rest but struggle to unwind or switch off

6. You rarely pause to check in with how you actually feel
