But there’s a difference between booking a treatment and booking in at Forever Young 🤍

Here, you’re not just another appointment in a diary. Katie knows her clients, remembers what you like, adapts your treatment to how you’re feeling that day and actually gets to know the person on the table.

After 10 years as a qualified massage therapist, there’s a lot of experience behind those hands but there’s also a real person who cares about the experience you have.

No complicated booking system, no conveyor belt, no wondering who you’ll get this time. Just Katie, her treatment room and a massage that’s tailored to you!

Sometimes you come in thinking you need one treatment and Katie has other ideas. 😂

A Swedish massage might turn into a little more focused work on a particular area. The pressure might change halfway through or something you thought would suit you might not actually be what your body needs that day. That’s the beauty of a treatment with Katie, it isn’t a set routine. She works with what she finds and adapts the massage to you, on the day.

Sometimes I just know!

After years of treating people, I can often pick up on what you need before you’ve even quite put it into words. Maybe it’s a little more pressure, a slower pace, less chat, or simply a bit of quiet. It’s one of those things that comes with experience and getting to know the people who lie on the treatment table🤍

And while a massage isn't a cure for chronic pain, it does make you realise just how many of us are getting on with daily life while our bodies are asking for a bit more attention!

Swedish massage is one of my lovely all rounder treatments. It uses flowing, rhythmic techniques and varying pressure to work through muscular tension while encouraging you to properly slow down and relax.

So whether you've spent the week at a desk, on your feet, chasing children, running a business or simply being a human in 2026, your muscles might appreciate an hour of being looked after 🤍

There’s a difference between knowing how to give a massage and knowing how to look after the person on the table 🤍

After 10 years as a qualified massage therapist, I’ve worked with all sorts of people, bodies and reasons for booking and that experience matters. It means knowing when to adapt a treatment, when to ask another question, when a lighter approach is better, when someone needs a little more focus on a particular area and, just as importantly, when to leave the technical stuff at the door and simply give someone an hour to switch off.

Forever Young has always been about more than the treatment itself. It’s about feeling comfortable, listened to and cared for from the moment you walk through the door. 10 years qualified. Still learning. Still caring. Still loving what I do!

A new week, and a little reminder that you don't have to wait until you're exhausted to look after yourself 🤍

We’re so good at making plans for everything else. Work, appointments, family, weekends, holidays, the diary gets filled before we even think about where we fit into it.

So perhaps this week, make a little space.

Not necessarily for something big. Just something that makes you feel good, gives you a bit of breathing room or reminds you that you’re a person too, not just the one keeping everything else ticking along.

And if that happens to be an hour on my massage table, I’m very happy to help with that part😉

Indian Head Massage isn’t just about having someone massage your scalp while you relax.

Katie works across the scalp, neck, shoulders and upper back, all areas where we can carry an impressive amount of tension without even noticing 🏋️‍♀️

It’s particularly lovely if you’re feeling mentally overloaded, carrying tension through your shoulders, or finding it difficult to properly switch off.

An hour to quieten the noise, release some tension and give your mind and body a proper reset.

A lot of people know me as the person at the end of the treatment bed, but there’s also plenty of chatting, planning, problem solving and probably a little too much tea happening behind the scenes. Having an assistant means having someone to bounce ideas off, talk through the day with and occasionally say, “Katie, are you sure another Gonk is a good idea?” 😂

I love that Forever Young has grown into more than just me and my treatment room. It’s a little business that’s been built around people, the clients who trust me, the people who support me and the lovely humans who help keep everything moving.

And yes, sometimes the best meetings happen while having a good old natter. 🤍

Thank you, thank you, thank you 🫶🫶

Massage during or after cancer treatment requires a different approach. It’s not about deep pressure or working through every knot, it’s about understanding what the body is going through and adapting the treatment accordingly.

Our oncology massage is tailored to the individual, taking into account their treatment, how they’re feeling on the day, and what they’re comfortable with.

Sometimes it’s about easing tension. Sometimes it’s simply about creating a quiet space to relax and feel cared for.

There’s no pressure to “push through” just a safe, compassionate treatment designed around you 🌿

Because when your body is going through so much, being looked after matters.
