I've been coming here for a while now for their acupuncture treatment with Marian, and it's consistently clean, calm, and professional. Exactly what you want from a wellness space. The staff are always warm while remaining professional. The location is a bonus I didn't know I needed as being right n...ext to Jolene means I always treat myself to a coffee and something sweet after my session. The perfect little ritual to round off the visit. read more

Chris is a master of his craft. When I arrived, my back was analogous to a dusty old house that had been shuttered for the winter but 45 minutes later it felt like it had had a full spring clean with shutters open to a beautiful sunny day! Thanks Chris.

Another wonderful treatment today by Georgie.
Thank you for the reflexology!

What a lovely welcoming place! The staff are delightful and my treatment with Leon Baugh was exactly what I needed. Realigned and rejuvenated.

Incredibly relaxing, enjoyable deep tissue massage. Will 100% be going back

A wonderful deep tissue massage with Danila. She was very attentive to my back problems and centered the massage on the areas that have been giving me trouble. I kept dozing off during the massage and felt super relaxed afterwards. Danila also gave me good advice on how to manage my back problems an...d tips on exercises that would be best. Definitely recommend and I will go back for sure. read more

Becky Clarke, with the smiling face, is the most attentive and caring masseur you could wish to meet.

What an amazing massage from Mila! I felt like she innately knew/felt exactly what my body needed. So skillful and attentive, and great at communicating. Thank you, will be recommending to everyone!

It was an exhilarating experience. The session with Ria was tailored to my needs, and I received holistic healing that unleashed worries and concerns I didn’t even know were still affecting me. My physical symptoms and emotional tiredness were both eased. I will be coming back for another in-depth s...ession. read more

I had such a great massage with Mila today. The pressure was right throughout and she really got into all my knots and tight areas - I didn't realise quite how much I was holding in my neck and shoulders and she worked into these areas especially - it was DIVINE and I left feeling relaxed, more open... and spacious 🙂 Thank you Mila! read more

I had an incredible healing session with Ria at Sacred Motion. Her warm, grounding energy put me at ease from the moment I arrived. The session was insightful and empowering, offering clarity I didn’t know I needed. The reiki was calming and transformative—I could feel energy shifting throughout my...body. The clay wrap was the perfect, soothing finish. Ria’s intuitive gifts and nurturing presence created a safe space to truly reset. I left feeling lighter, clearer, and deeply reconnected. I will be back very soon. Thank you Ria read more

Mila at Sacred Motion gave me the best massage I’ve ever had. She focused on my targeted areas with such precision and care—her skill is truly unmatched. I’ve had many massages before, but none have compared to the relief and release I felt after this session. Mila intuitively knew exactly where to...apply pressure and how to work through tension I didn’t even realise I was holding. I left feeling completely relaxed, restored, and pain-free. She is a true expert at her craft. Highly recommend! Thank you Mila for a great experience. read more

The massage that Mila provided was excellent!
She used the right pressure and was in tune with exactly what I needed.

An excellent treatment from Dr Martinez. He explained everything to me before undertaking the procedure in a friendly and considerate way. The procedure itself was conducted very well and follow up care was also explained clearly. It was also very good value. Dr Martinez provides a terrific service,... is a very well qualified dermatologist, and I highly recommend him. read more

I saw Vidaltxo for a dermatology appt and was very happy with the appt. Vidaltxo is warm and kind and gave me a very thorough review with detailed information on my care and next steps. I will definitely visit him again and would recommend his services

My appointment was with Dr Martinez to have a couple of moles removed.
He explained the process really well and also the aftercare.
It’s only been a week but they are healing really well and look soo much better.

Hi - Davina, my stylist, once again was engaging and we had a great chat - oh, and she cut my hair perfectly! Many congratulations on her well deserved promotion - Best Wishes, Steve

Carla is a gem of a person and fabulous hairdresser.
If you are going through chemotherapy and need a good haircut and emotional support Shine is your sanctuary. Thank you Carla and team.

I left Shine feeling relaxed and pampered and my hair looked and felt great. All staff were welcoming, considerate and kind. This is so much more than just a hair salon. Cinnamen styled my hair with flair. Many thanks to all.

I love getting my hair done here my hair dresser is the best I wouldn't go anywhere else

Lovely as ever. A friendly and bright salon. Cinammen really gets curly hair and I will never go anywhere else!

A really beautiful salon with a great team who are friendly and always work hard to make your experience special.

Always do a brilliant job - and are super nice with it. They use very nice hair product as it's not too harsh on the hair, as well. Lovely salon too!

I cannot recommend Shine on the Green and my stylist enough. I received a very warm welcome, the salon is well run and very clean and well equipped. My stylist was amazing and I have not said that about a stylist for a very long time. Benedetta is friendly, she listened very carefully to what I want...ed/asked for. She also gave me great advice and guidance as it was my first time in getting my hair colour changed. I'm really happy with both the colour and cut she provided. She's also an adorable person, very very sweet. I wish Benedetta and Shine on the Green continued success. See you soon. read more

Davina has been fantastic!

Had a cut from Carla - 1st time. I was v happy with the cut and with the whole thing as Carla really listened to what I had to say as well as offering sound advice - will definitely return ,

Lovely cut and colour with Sonia and Ernesto, thank you!

Benedetta is the best hairdresser I've ever had, and I'm not young!

Amazing hair cut by Davina on Church street. I am very happy with the end result, exactly what I asked for and amazing service! Thank you so much!

I had yesterday a haircut with Benedetta and she did an amazing job!!!
Did exactly what I asked for and she is so sweet and professional. Also at the end she did a very beautiful a wavy blow dry.
Thank you.

Shine is extremely well organised, clean, and with lovely staff. I've always found the treatments very high quality as well, having tried several of the beauticians for waxes, pedis, facials, tints and massages. Great stuff!

Yoanna's 90 minute facial is not only to die for, but the perfect restorative for tired, stressed skin. Having just got over a cold, I came away feeling like my skin was recovered and got lots of compliments

I had the back to heaven package which was amazing. Perfect combo for relaxing and refreshed.

I’ve been coming to Shine for years. Yoana is particularly excellent - from threading to luxurious facials. I wouldn’t go anywhere else and plan my schedule around her availability! Thank Yoanna.
