What is it?
Release tension,
restore balance
Our luxury massage treatments are about far more than an hour of quiet. Massage improves blood circulation, eases muscle strain, lowers cortisol and supports lymphatic drainage — physical benefits that build with regular sessions rather than fading the moment you get off the couch.
Choose Swedish massage for pure relaxation, aromatherapy to treat body and mind together with essential oils, or deep tissue and sports massage for chronic tension, knots and injury recovery. Alongside these we offer reflexology, a grounding treatment working pressure points on the feet, and Theragun percussive therapy for rapid, targeted muscle release.
Every treatment is carried out by Tashia at our Forest Hill studio, by appointment only. Tell us where you are holding tension and what you want from the session, and the pressure, technique and focus are adjusted to suit you.
Great for treating
Six reasons clients
keep coming back
Mental Stress
Long, gliding strokes significantly lower cortisol levels, making Swedish massage ideal for anyone carrying stress in their body as much as their mind.
General Muscle Tension
Improves blood circulation and eases superficial muscle strain — perfect for first-time massage goers and anyone needing pure, unadulterated relaxation.
Chronic Pain & Knots
Deep tissue and sports massage use firm pressure and slow strokes to reach deeper muscle and fascia, relieving chronic pain and breaking down scar tissue.
Sports Recovery
Excellent for athletes and physically demanding jobs — improving mobility, aiding recovery from sports injuries and restoring range of motion.
Low Mood & Poor Sleep
Aromatherapy combines gentle massage with the therapeutic power of essential oils, whether you need to be uplifted or calmed.
Hormonal Imbalance
Reflexology applies pressure to points on the feet to promote healing in corresponding organs and systems — grounding, balancing, and ideal if you'd rather not have a full-body massage.
Benefits
How This
Treatment Helps
Improved Circulation
Massage increases blood flow throughout the body, delivering oxygen and nutrients to tired muscles and supporting lymphatic drainage.
Lower Stress Levels
Swedish and aromatherapy massage significantly lower cortisol, the body's primary stress hormone, leaving you calmer for days rather than hours.
Relief From Chronic Tension
Deep tissue work reaches the deeper layers of muscle and fascia to release long-held knots, ease stiff necks and improve mobility.
Faster Recovery
Theragun percussive therapy delivers rapid, concentrated pulses deep into muscle tissue, increasing blood flow and breaking up scar tissue.
Whole-Body Balance
Reflexology stimulates specific pressure points to promote healing in corresponding organs and systems — deeply grounding and balancing.
Better Sleep & Mood
Essential oils work on the mind as the massage works on the body, improving mood, sleep quality and emotional wellbeing.

Common Questions
Everything you
need to know
We want you to feel confident and informed before your appointment. Here are the questions we hear most often.
Still have questions? Call Tashia directly or send a message — we’re always happy to chat through your concerns.
Swedish for pure relaxation and general tension — ideal if it’s your first massage. Aromatherapy if you want a sensory experience for mood and sleep. Deep tissue or sports massage for chronic knots, injuries or physically demanding work. Reflexology for a grounding, holistic treatment without a full-body massage. Theragun for rapid, targeted muscle release.
It uses firm pressure and slow strokes, so you’ll feel it working — but it should never be painful. Tell Tashia at any point if the pressure needs adjusting; the treatment is tailored to what your body can comfortably take.
Most clients find every 4 to 6 weeks keeps tension from building back up. If you’re working through a specific injury or chronic pain, a closer run of sessions to begin with works better, then space them out.
A Theragun device delivers rapid, concentrated pulses of pressure deep into the muscle tissue. It increases blood flow, breaks up scar tissue and rapidly relieves tightness and knots — particularly good for sports recovery and restricted range of motion.
An ancient Chinese technique applying pressure to energy points on the feet and hands to restore balance and improve organ function. It’s incredibly grounding, and a good choice if you’d prefer not to have a full-body massage.
Massage isn’t suitable with certain conditions, in the first trimester of pregnancy, or over recent injuries, infections or skin conditions. Tell us about your health and any medications when you book, and we’ll adapt or advise accordingly.
Instructions
Before & Aftercare
Guidelines
Following these instructions carefully will ensure
the best possible results and a smooth, safe recovery from your massage treatment.
Preparation
Before Your Treatment
Eat Lightly
Avoid a heavy meal in the two hours before your appointment — a light snack is ideal.
Arrive Hydrated
Drink water beforehand. Well-hydrated muscle tissue responds better and flushes out more easily afterwards.
Arrive a Little Early
Give yourself a few minutes to settle so the treatment starts relaxed rather than rushed.
Tell Us Where It Hurts
Point out any specific areas of tension, injuries or sensitivity so pressure and technique can be tailored to you.
Disclose Health Conditions
Let us know about any medical conditions, medications, allergies or if you are or may be pregnant.
Recovery & Results
After Your Treatment
Drink Plenty of Water
Hydration helps flush out the waste products released from your muscles during the massage.
Rest if You Can
Take it easy for the rest of the day where possible — the benefits deepen if you don't go straight back into stress.
Expect Some Tenderness
Mild tenderness for a day or two after deep tissue work is normal, similar to the feeling after exercise.
Stretch Gently
Light stretching in the days afterwards helps maintain the mobility gained during your session.
Avoid Alcohol
Skip alcohol for the rest of the day — it works against the detoxifying effect of the treatment.
Book Your Next Session
Regular treatments every 4 to 6 weeks stop tension rebuilding, and the benefits are cumulative.
If you experience pain that worsens rather than settles, unusual bruising, numbness, or any concerning symptoms after your treatment — please contact us on 07803 285619 and seek medical advice if symptoms persist.
Client Reviews
What our clients say
Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Tashia really puts you at ease and I had a lovely relaxing facial and the results were great, my skin feels so clear and clean. I recommend Tashia as a beautician, she is qualified beyond doubt and I’m glad I met her xPosted on Google Leah’s lTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Tasha came out last minute to do a spray tan for me before a holiday. She is an absolute delight and most thorough spray tan experience I've ever had. She was so careful with prep and follow up. Nothing was too much trouble and she left me with aftercare tips and samples. Highly recommend and I will definitely use her again for this or other services.Posted on Google Caoimhe MTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Aquafacial Treatment Review After a long winter, my skin felt extremely dry, and I had a noticeably deep frown line between my eyebrows. However, after just one Aquafacial session with Tashia, my skin became visibly plumper, deeply hydrated, and so much more radiant. On top of the incredible results, I received a handful of thoughtful surprises from Tasha — including soothing eye patches, a serum specially tailored for my combination skin with a high concentration of AHA acids, and, most importantly, a boost of amazing mood and positivity. The experience was made even more special by the cosy studio at Forest Hill. The space is so warm and inviting that I found myself drifting off during the relaxing facial massage! I would also like to express my heartfelt gratitude to Tashia for her true professionalism and wonderful energy. This wasn’t just a skincare treatment — it was a full experience of care, relaxation, and uplifting conversation. I returned home not only with glowing, nourished skin but also with a full heart and a smile on my face. Highly recommend!Posted on Google Anastasiia KTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Impromptu mini facial to use up my ClassPass credits and what a treat! Tashia is lovely and has created a peaceful oasis. She explained the process throughout and used the most amazing products - nice texture and smelled amazing. You can tell Tashia loves what she does and genuinely enjoys making you feel better. Highly recommend.Posted on Google Rebecca WTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Posted on Google Anastasiia KTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a spray tan from Tashia and she was brilliant. She came to my home (so no embarrassing travel home and I was able to out the children to bed first) and was so lovely! Tashia is a perfectionist with Tanning but also is so lovely and relaxed that I was so comfortable (I wouldnt usually be having a tan done)!
