My Journey into Holistic Therapies and Wellbeing

Before finding my true calling I spent many years in the fast paced world of promotional work running a promotional and model agency, moving from one unfulfilling job to another always feeling that something wasn’t quite right and being unfulfilled that something was missing.

Then one day, everything changed. During one of my events I noticed a team offering corporate massage, and I remember thinking, “That looks amazing.” I was completely captivated. The calm and peace and the connection it all resonated so deeply. I began researching and before long I knew this was the path I was meant to follow.

In 1995 my journey began at The Central College in Nottingham where I started studying anatomy and physiology.   Soon after I completed my ITEC qualification in Massage Therapy one of the most respected credentials in the field. I was blessed with an inspiring teacher and from the very first moment I placed my hands on someone’s body, something clicked an intuitive understanding of what they needed. It felt natural, effortless… as if I had finally found what was so right and natural for me

From that moment my passion for holistic healing only grew.

Over the years, I’ve continued to expand my knowledge through a variety of courses and trainings including:

 

Holistic Therapies

  • Reiki
  • Swedish Massage
  • Hot Stones Massage
  • CBD oil Massage
  • No Hands Massage
  • Facials
  • Hopi Ear Candles
  • Diet and Nutrition

 

Yoga and Meditation

  • Hatha Yoga
  • Yin Yoga
  • Restorative Yoga
  • Inner Dance Meditation
  • Yoga Nidra

Yoga Nidra holds a special place in my heart. It’s an incredibly powerful practice for releasing stress and tension, easing anxiety and depression and supporting deep restorative sleep.

Not every path I explored felt right for me but each experience brought me closer to the work I truly love creating calm, connection and healing for others. Every course I’ve taken has woven together beautifully giving me a rich understanding of holistic health and wellbeing over the last 18 years.

Today I feel deeply grateful to share this passion through my therapies, yoga and meditation classes and to meet so many wonderful people along the way.

All therapies and classes are also available for corporate events bringing peace, relaxation and balance to the workplace.

 

Little London Herbal Store PictureI began practicing massage over eighteen years ago at the Little London Herbal Store renting a small room while my son was just six months old.  It was a quiet beginning a simple space filled with care and intention and it was there that I learned one of the most valuable lessons of my career.

Many people came to me seeking relief from pain or illness yet as I listened I realised what they truly needed was time… and someone who would really listen. That understanding became the heart of my practice and it still is with everything I do today.

In time life brought me back to my hometown of Beeston where I began renting a room at Caritas and gradually grew a loyal client base.

Before long I opened my first therapy room on Bramcote Avenue and as my work blossomed I expanded into The Creative Corner at the bottom of Cator Lane.

Those years were very busy balancing the running of a therapy centre, supporting other practitioners, offering treatments and raising two young children.

My business continued to grow and eventually I moved into my dream location just across the road a calm, spacious sanctuary with multiple therapy rooms and studio and room to expand.

Then came change. With the arrival of COVID and shifts in my personal life I made the difficult decision to let that space go. Yet every ending brings new beginnings. Today Tranquility is lovingly run from my cosy sanctuary in Long Eaton. A cosy space that is peaceful, warm and inviting where you can truly unwind, breathe deeply and reconnect with yourself with therapies, yoga and Meditation classes.

I now also share my love of yoga, mediation and mindfulness through Yoga, Mantra and Meditation classes in Nottingham, Long Eaton and Beeston helping others find calm, clarity and balance in their everyday lives.

My journey has been filled with change, challenge and growth but through it all one thing has remained constant my passion for healing, listening and helping others feel seen, supported and at peace.
