My Reviews
M.C.
I have been going to see Sophie monthly, for nearly 4 years.
Not only is she a lovely person, her work is focused, professional and dedicated.
I could not recommend her enough to anyone looking for either deep relaxation or specific tailored body work.

I suffered from sciatica during my pregnancy and was recommended by my GP to have massages. I booked myself in with Sophie, and after one session I already felt so much better. With the massage and exercises that Sophie recommended my sciatica faded quite quickly.

Intuitive and sensitive are two words i would use to describe Sophie's brilliant massage skills.
Never the same massage twice, she listens to what i ask for and also reads what i need once a treatment has started.
Before and after the birth of my son, I've relied on her talents to relax and revitalise myself at different stages of life.

A wonderful, friendly, welcoming place, both for hair and holistic treatments. I've always had good experiences over several years, and with a number of different stylists and therapists. My current favourite hair stylist is Vincenzo, but alas he's going back to Italy before long. Five stars also for Marta and for hair, and Sophie for massage. The experience that really stands out, though, is going through cancer treatment 5 years ago, and visiting Shine to have my hair firstly cut short, then shaved as the remains fell out due to chemotherapy, then eventually restyled as it grew back in. Throughout, everyone was unfailing kind and sensitive, and I was (and remain) so grateful to you for your support during a difficult time.
Thanks for such a lovely heart felt review Lesley, we are so proud to be able to offer support to our customers through all their life stages, difficult and joyous. Shine has become my family over the years and I am over joyed when others have a similar supportive experience.
