About Mandala Holistic Therapies
My interest in complementary therapies began in my teenage years as I was blessed come from a family of successful holistic practitioners and teachers and would often help out on courses, learning the techniques myself in the process. During my time in university studying Health and Society I took a number of massage courses to become a fully qualified practitioner and haven't looked back since. I have found that the integration of massage and complementary treatments into peoples busy lives is an integral and powerful tool for maintaining balance and keeping stress at bay.

This treatment is one I see so much value in as its offering a truly holistic and natural approach to rejuvenation, that makes people feel good inside and out. In a society where so much emphasis and attention is placed on ‘anti-ageing’ and being flawless, people often turn to invasive and expensive procedures such as facial fillers, surgery and harsh chemical laden products, it is one of my greatest pleasures to introduce people to the healing power of ancient Ayurvedic techniques to show that there is always an alternative
