Aromatic plants have been used by humankind since the dawn of history. Aromatherapy combines the soothing, healing touch of massage with the therapeutic properties of essential oils.
I have been practising aromatherapy and therapeutic massage since 2004 having trained at the Institute of Traditional Herbal Medicine and Aromatherapy with Gabriel Mojay. ITHMA teaches Aromatherapy as a complete healing art, uniting a sound scientific perspective with the time-honoured principles of the world’s most highly developed vitalistic system: traditional Oriental Medicine.
Oriental diagnosis allows me to select the most appropriate essential oils for a wide range of ailments — as well as minor conditions where no clearly defined disease exists. Rather than focus solely on a client’s symptoms, this inherently holistic approach concentrates instead on addressing the underlying imbalances at the root of any health problem.
I balance an intuitive and creative approach with study and experience to create a holistic experience aimed at nurturing and supporting you both physically and emotionally.
Bespoke oil blends and advice on the use of essential oils in the home are offered, so that clients are eventually equipped to take the healing process into their own hands.
The benefits of Aromatherapy
Berry & Bloom
Aromatherapy is unique in that it gives you something that you can do for yourself, something that is both enjoyable and empowering. Each essential oil has a unique personality and it is interesting and very comforting to find an essential oil that works in harmony with you.
For the ultimate in bespoke therapy, I offer bespoke blending and will create your very own personalised essential oil blend, targeted to your individual needs. Your unique ‘recipe’ will help you deal with your specific concerns, be they physical, such as tense and aching muscles, swollen ankles or indigestion; or mental, with worries, exhaustion or tension headaches getting you down. Or maybe you just want to be energised and feel uplifted!
I will conduct an in-depth aroma consultation with you, this can be done on the phone or in person, which will result in the creation of your bespoke blend. I will ask you a series of questions relating to your general health, lifestyle and medical history. This allows me to learn as much as possible about you and devise a unique individual custom-made blend of essential oils designed to meet your needs.
Berry & Bloom is the range of products I offer: from bath and shower blends to massage oils, floral water mists, custom blends for diffusers and portable pulse point wands there’s a way of delivering essential oils to support and inspire you.

My work with Neals Yard Remedies
I am delighted to work with Neals Yards Remedies as an independent consultant. When I first lived in London in the summer of '94 I visited the Neal's Yard shop in Covent Garden and felt I'd wandered into a magical world. The blue bottles, the aromatics... it was wondrous.
Their values match my own and the products are second to none. I'm happy to host an aromathera-party for you at home so you can explore the collection or you can browse my online shop here.
