A little October update from Ritual & Rest 🍂

Things have been quietly growing behind the scenes…
Our upstairs room rentals are now fully booked, I have a lovely new massage therapist joining me three days a week from November, and we also have a new Business Manager joining us three days a week. 🤎
The new rooms will finally be finished no later than the second weekend of October — I cannot wait to show you!
Alisha’s October offer is now live, and she has also added Nouvatan body tanning to her treatment menu, just in time for the autumn/winter party season. ✨
And after a very busy few months, I’ll be taking some annual leave over half term to rest, recoup and practise a little of what I preach. 🍂
Lots happening. Lots to be grateful for. And a slightly slower October ahead. 🤎

✨ A little last-minute treat for tomorrow… ✨

Alisha has had a rare 2-hour cancellation tomorrow at 10am 🤎

Which means there’s just enough time to book one of her gorgeous bespoke packages — or create your own little morning of treatments.

And because we’d love to fill the space…

Add waxing and it’s BUY ONE, GET ONE FREE — for this appointment only. ✨

If you’ve been wondering what everyone has been raving about with Alisha, this is the perfect excuse to find out. 🥰

Tomorrow • 10am • up to 2 hours available

Message us or book via Fresha 🤎

There’s been something particularly lovely about this past week at Ritual & Rest… we’ve had the pleasure of seeing quite a few familiar faces walk back through our door. 🤎

Some we haven’t seen for a few months, some for much longer — and honestly, it’s been so heart-warming.

Life gets busy. Routines change. Sometimes self-care slips down the list. There is never any awkwardness about coming back after time away.

Whether it’s been three weeks, three months or three years, you’ll always be welcomed back to Ritual & Rest with the same warmth.

No questions. No guilt. Just a very genuine “it’s so lovely to see you again.”

Our door is always open. 🤎

These reviews for Alisha make me so happy. 🤍

Watching her settle into Ritual & Rest, build her own lovely client base and receive feedback like this makes me incredibly proud.

She genuinely cares about the people who walk through our door, and I think that comes across in every one of these reviews.

Very proud of you, Alisha — and very glad you’re part of my team. 🤎

There’s something about hot stone massage that never gets old. 🤎

The weight of the stones, the warmth sinking in, and that moment you finally feel someone soften beneath your hands.

Warmth. Quiet. Rest.
Still one of my favourite treatments to give.

Ritual & Rest is a professional therapeutic and affiliated service.

Sexual requests, inappropriate messages or enquiries regarding “extras” will not be tolerated, and where appropriate will be reported to the police. Nothing has happened within the treatment room; however, due to an increase in inappropriate enquiries in recent months, I feel it is necessary to make this boundary clear.

Thank you to my wonderful clients for always respecting me, my work and my team at Ritual and Rest.

People often stop me and ask, “What can I smell?” 🌿

So here’s a tiny glimpse into my aromatherapist world…

Blending, stirring, experimenting, smelling everything twice, changing my mind, and reading every book I can get my hands on.

I love creating blends that don’t just smell beautiful, but change the whole feeling of the room — grounding, softening, uplifting, comforting.

Sometimes it’s cedarwood and ylang ylang. Sometimes rosemary, thyme and something a little warmer. Sometimes it’s a combination I’ve scribbled down, tweaked three times and then fallen completely in love with. I will admit - I do love a herb in my blends!

It’s one of my favourite little parts of what I do.

The scent you notice when you walk through the door? There’s usually a little thought, ritual and a lot of experimenting behind it. 🤎🌿

Maybe self-care isn’t always about finding more time.

Maybe it’s deciding that the things which make us feel like ourselves deserve a place in the time we already have.

Whatever nourishes you — protect a little space for it.

When you’re running on empty… 🤎

Sometimes your body is asking for more than sleep.

Massage, warmth, quiet and gentle touch can help your nervous system shift out of always on and into a state of rest.

No pressure to talk. No decisions to make. Nowhere else to be.

Just an hour to soften, switch off and reset.
