About Me
Qualifying in holistic therapies over 20 years ago, I have since developed many techniques that have helped me work intuitively. I gained a lot of experience at The Cowshed Spa, Babington House, where I worked long and busy schedules. As one of their team of therapists we helped to achieve ‘Best International Spa ofthe year 2010′.
Now I am working for myself and offer a range of bespoke treatments holistically tailored to each individual, balancing the mind, body, and spirit. Many of the clients I have treated have progressed from their treatments, helping them maintain a more balanced state of being.

Testimonials
Alison gives a good strong massage and I go and get treatments regularly due to my back issues. She has taken time to get to know what I require and her technique is excellent. I will keep returning for more as it considerably helps my back issues.
