A warm welcome to Sunflower Holistic

I have been in the beauty industry for over 20 years, initially qualifying as a beauty therapist. I have worked in various salons, massage centres and luxury spas and currently, on occasion, I work at a 5-star resort.

In recent years I’ve moved away from beauty and put my energy into more holistic therapy — advocating the power of touch as deeply beneficial not only for physical ailments but also for the healing of emotional distress.

I have always been intrigued by the connections within our bodies and fell in love with reflexology, qualifying with a distinction. From personal experience of receiving it, I know how wonderful it is in easing physical symptoms and in releasing emotional blockages too.

More recently I trained in the Face-Up Method — so much more than a facial. It’s a structured method working through fascia, posture, breath and the nervous system. Face sculpting that includes lymphatic drainage, a reduction in tension, and helps release emotional imprints.

Everyone is unique, and your body can have different niggles on different days. That’s why I like to combine techniques within my treatments — lighter or medium pressure for someone who needs to de-stress, deeper tissue work for someone holding tension. Each session is shaped around you.

I use Neal’s Yard award-winning products in my facials — clean, green and naturally organic, handmade in the UK with ethically sourced ingredients.
