My name is Shona Smillie and I am a wife, a mother and a qualified massage therapist!
My passion in life has always been to help others, having completed a science degree I continued my studies and went on to have a successful career as a Registered Veterinary Nurse for more than a decade. It is a privilege to be part of such a hard working and skilled profession and certainly my love for animals will never leave me.
Massage has always been a part of my life, mainly as a treatment I sought to assist with the aches and pains that I had developed through my work as a vet nurse but also for relaxation.
Becoming a mother gave me a further appreciation for the benefit gentle massage could give my children and I’ve spent many hours massaging tummies and backs to offer relief and comfort.
An opportunity arose for me to take my enthusiasm and interest forwards, to learn the correct skills and gain more knowledge so I enrolled at Western School of Massage graduating in May 2019 with a Diploma in Swedish Massage.
Shortly after I set up my business and I have been so fortunate to welcome many clients through my doors for treatments ever since - all of which have remained loyal customers 💕
My diploma gave me extensive knowledge not only about the human body but specifically how massage effects the different systems, when it is appropriate to use and indeed a clear understanding of when massage should not be applied. This coupled with an ingrained high level of hygiene accrued from veterinary nursing in the surgical environment means that I offer my clients a professional, safe and relaxing experience.
If you think that massage may be able help you or you have a question and think I may be able to help - please send me a message and together we can work out the best course to take.
