About me

For the last 28 years I have run a successful practice since qualifying in Aromatherapy and Bodywork at the London School of Aromatherapy in 1993.

Being a holistic practitioner I take into account all aspects of the client’s life before choosing the precise combination of essential oils that will be of most benefit to them. I am passionate about the healing power of aromatic plants and their ability to promote physical, mental and spiritual wellbeing.

In my practice I have treated babies, ballet dancers, marathon runners, clients undergoing chemotherapy, people with multiple sclerosis and those recovering from knee and hip replacements. Many clients have a massage for some »me time«, to relax from the stress of busy lives.

Home visits are possible for all treatments except for the Hot Stone Massage. Please ask for details. My massages are not beauty treatments.

Reviews

I have been benefitting from Marianne’s massages for over twenty years. Being a marathon runner, my muscles sometimes need specific treatment either before or after races. Marianne is expert in assessing the problem. I always come away feeling several inches taller. Neil, 65

A massage with Marianne is sheer bliss. She chooses the oils to suit the needs of the individual client. I cannot recommend her highly enough. Nicky, 62

I met Marianne while studying for my degree, which was a particularly stressful time. I started having regular massages and it was hugely beneficial both mentally and physically. I have been seeing her for over fifteen years now and have recommended her to many of my friends. Julienne, 48

Due to mobility problems, which cannot be treated medically, I started monthly aromatherapy massages in 2004. Marianne’s approach is unique and intuitive as my needs are different every time. There is no doubt that the sessions are helping me to function as normally as I can. One great advantage is that Marianne visits me in my home for the treatment. I recommend Marianne most highly. Patricia, 84

During my bereavement after the death of my husband I decided to have aromatherapy treatment with Marianne. I found it enormously comforting and relaxing at a time of physical and emotional stress. The oils she used in the treatments (frankincense, rose, lemon balm Roman chamomile to name just a few) helped me to move forward and replenished my mind, body and spirit. Name withheld

I have had regular full body, back, neck and shoulder massages, and reflexology with Marianne for the past six years. I am a midwife so my hours are not regular but Marianne always manages to fit me in. I highly recommend Marianne’s holistic approach and the individualised care she provides. Jane, 54
