Sam, Neal and myself would love to welcome you to our very first Open Day on Thursday 24th September, between 12:00pm and 7:00pm.

Perhaps you’ve been thinking “Oooh wouldn’t it be great to hold Mum’s birthday gathering there, I wonder what the space is actually like?”
Or maybe you’re an independent facilitator who’s been thinking, “I’d love to do something here!”
Or maybe you’ve been before and would love to just come and hang with us and have a cuppa.

Whatever your reason, you’re wholeheartedly welcome!

We’ll have things happening throughout the day too - live Ruska massage demonstrations, the chance to explore the different spaces, meet us, ask questions and get a feel for what life here in the woods is all about.

Thursday 24th September
12pm–7pm
Come for ten minutes or stay for a while! 🤎

With lots of love,
Sam, Neal and Kerry x

Oh my absolute lordy… I don’t even know where to begin with all the gratitude I want to give out. 🤎

This weekend has been immense. Full-on, tiring, joyous, emotional, perfect… I could go on.

I’m still trying to process everything that has happened over the last couple of months, but this weekend has made it all feel very real.

FoxhillsForest - thank you for welcoming me in with the biggest open arms. You’ve given me the space to start living out some of my genuine dreams, and I’m eternally grateful. What you’re creating here is really very special, and I’m utterly elated to be a part of it. 🌿

To my beautiful friend who loaned me the money for my new tent and log burner - I couldn’t have done this without you. I love you more than words can say. 🤎

To my fabulous client who gave up his entire Saturday and worked his absolute socks off — your knowledge, skill, patience and belief made this possible. Grateful doesn’t even come close.

Carls Berg - your belief, love, time, knowledge, tools, humour and general youness have meant everything. I’d be lost without you. 🧡

To my Dad - nearly 70, still working full time, and still digging and digging and digging. A true Trojan. 🤎

To my Jamie Austin - for everything. For enabling me to follow my dreams, holding the fort, washing the endless towels, believing in me, listening to me, picking up the pieces and standing by my side through it all. Without you, none of this would be possible.

To my boys - for keeping me on my toes, teaching me, challenging me, making me laugh and giving me a reason to keep going. You’re my world. 🤎

And finally, to my clients.

Without you, none of this would even be happening.

You’ve helped me turn dreams into something real.

I’m more grateful than I could ever put into words.

Thank you. From the absolute bottom of my heart. 🤎

With love, always.

Music has always been such a big part of the Ruska experience.

I don’t just put a playlist on in the background.

I choose music for how it feels.

The warmth of a voice.
A bassline you can feel through your body.
A piece of music that somehow makes you exhale without even realising you were holding your breath.

Alongside touch, scent, warmth and the sounds of the woodland, music helps create the little world I want you to disappear into when you come for a treatment experience.

And I’m constantly listening.

Saving songs. Finding new artists. Imagining how something will feel in the tent while the trees are moving outside and you have nowhere else you need to be.

Some songs become so entwined with Ruska that I can barely hear them without thinking of the people I’ve treated while they’ve been playing.

So each month, I thought I’d start sharing a little of that with you.

September’s Ruska playlist is incoming…

And it is a really delicious one.

Featuring some voices that have been filling the woodland for a long time… and perhaps one in particular that might just become part of the woodland in a whole new way. 🤎✨🌳

With love, always.

I’m just a girl, wanting to make a genuine difference in people’s lives…

…maybe through the safety of my touch.
Through a few loving words at the right moment.
Or through the beautiful spaces I create, where you can exhale for a while and simply be.

Everything I create and everything I offer has you at the heart of it.

I know, deep down, that I will probably never become financially wealthy working in the way that I do.

And that’s intentional.

I don’t want to rush people through the door.
I don’t want to squeeze more appointments into a day.
I don’t want to turn something I love into something that becomes purely transactional.

I want to offer something that feels increasingly rare.

Time.
Presence.
Care.
Human connection.

Something honest. Something deeply personal. Something that feels like me.

A place where you don’t need to perform, achieve, explain yourself or be anything other than exactly as you are.

There is no greater motive behind any of it.

Just the hope that, for the little while you are with me, you feel safe.
You feel cared for.
You feel a little lighter than when you arrived.

And perhaps you leave remembering something we so easily forget —

that you are allowed to simply be.

That’s Ruska.
And I think it always will be. 🤎

With love, always.

There is a place where I like to go
To get away from all that I know
Free as a bird and safe as a mole
Helps me to breathe
it is good for my soul 🌳✨💛

Autumn Woodland Retreat

There is something so special about autumn…

The days become quieter.
The air feels fresher.
Nature gently reminds us that it’s okay to slow down.

We’ll breathe deeply.

Move gently.

Warm ourselves in the sauna.

Refresh in the cold plunge.

Share nourishing seasonal food around the table.

Journal.

Laugh.

Rest.

And simply enjoy being.

No expectations.

No pressure.

Just a beautiful day to reconnect with yourself, surrounded by nature and a small group of wonderful people.

The end of a beautiful little chapter… 🤎

Today I packed away the treatment room that has been my home for the last two and a half years.

These four walls have held so much more than massage.

They’ve held laughter that left our cheeks aching, tears that needed a safe place to fall, quiet moments of reflection, difficult conversations, exciting news, and so many deep exhalations as shoulders softened and minds finally found a little peace.

To every single person who has walked through my door and into my heart… thank you.

Thank you for trusting me with your bodies, your stories, your worries, your celebrations and your healing. It has been such a privilege to hold space for you.

Ruska has grown because of you.

As emotional as it feels to close this door, I’m so excited for what’s to come.

The next chapter begins beneath the trees, where the birds sing their beautiful songs, the breeze moves gently through the canvas, and nature becomes part of every treatment.

It already feels like home.

Here’s to new beginnings, whilst holding so much gratitude for where it all restarted!

See you in the woodland. 🌿🤎

With love, always.
