Home is where the spa is!!

I first met Heather of Sanctuary Home Healing back in March 2014.

After a couple of years of sleep deprivation with my youngest son and a neck that often killed me from many extensive breast feeds I was seriously overdue some pampering.

Whilst feeling very shattered and a little stressed I found Sanctuary Spa Healing on Facebook one day and I've truly never looked back.

The first thing that attracted me was that I could have a treatment in the comfort of my own home.

With my son still very young ( and still not sleeping all that well ) it was a very luxurious treatment that once I closed my eyes I very much felt like I could have been at any luxury spa resort.

One of Heathers prompts was to take myself somewhere that provides inner peace, provides a sense of tranquility and makes you feel a heightened sense of relaxation so therefore most sessions my mind casually visited ‘Thailand’ for one hour !!

( You know the Leonardo DeCaprio Beach film scene, silver glistening waterfalls in the sunshine, beautiful soft sand under the toes, the sweet smell of coconut oil. the fruity passion fruit aroma of a sweet tasting cocktail… utter heavenly blissful moment !!)

Thanks to Sanctuary Home Healing my manifesting magic became a welcome and idyllic reality !!

I continued having my chosen pamper treat of Reiki and Massage over the years as I knew how destressed and restful I felt after the pleasurable treatments and although she decided to stop doing mobile treatments I would visit her home for them in the future.

The Sanctuary Home treatment room is based at Heather’s home located In North end, Portsmouth.

It simply oozes Zen, tranquility and the warm sense of positive aura is felt when receiving treatments here.

Admittedly I don't live that far from the Sanctuary Spa retreat in Portsmouth but I would of definitely travelled further to receive these.

In the past I’ve experienced many spa packages but Heathers are a ‘cut above the rest’, her passion for everything holistic is very apparent and this shows in her Spa and healing practices.

I'm not sure I'd be the person ( Mum)

I am today without the support of Sanctuary Spa Healing, I know GP’s are very quick to offer prescription drugs but I feel if they offered vouchers for Sanctuary Spa Healing a lot of new Mums or women young and old would most definitely benefit from her luxurious services and their well being would be greatly impacted in the most positive way like mine has been.

As someone who has suffered with mental health In the past and am not afraid to talk about my experiences this service has been a consistent security blanket and a key to prevention of my well being, knowing ‘everything will be ok’ and that I can leave my troubles behind after visiting the ‘Spa’ and I am ready to tackle the stresses and complexities that life often throws at us daily.

‘I feel refreshed and recharged after every visit ‘

Since the pandemic Heather continued with online meditation and long distance Reiki ( which was of great support during these unprecedented times and of course home learning!!) she also prioritized her treatments as necessary and I’m so thankful she did.

As you can tell from the bottom of my heart I cannot thank Heather at Sanctuary Home Healing enough and I am very much looking forward to training with her in 2022 with hopefully completing The Reiki 2 course. I am very eager to attend her meditation classes too.

Thankyou to Heather for choosing me to photograph your Sanctuary Spa Healing space.
