Holistic Therapy
My journey with Holistic Therapy began in 1996 with a recommendation to try Reflexology. This was purely for relaxation, as a treat to help me switch off and enjoy some well-deserved me time. I had just finished University and was saving money to go traveling. Little did I realise that my path was about to change.
I was immediately hooked by my monthly sessions. An hour spent nestled quietly in that therapy room letting off steam, soaking up well-being advice and allowing myself the time to recover and heal was priceless. I felt the benefit of taking time out, incorporating self-care into my busy life and loved learning about the therapies. My passion was well and truly sparked!
So, I spent the next 2 years back at college training to be a Holistic and Sports Therapist. I then set up my own Practice and worked alongside the Therapist who first inspired me. After that came an opportunity to travel and practice by working in luxury spas on board cruise ships. My journey subsequently led me to work in the fitness industry as a Gym Instructor and Manager.
Life changes meant I returned to working as a PA in the hospitality sector and Secretary in Local Government. However, my therapies were always with me as I continued to treat family and friends. I knew that one day I would be practising professionally again.
The birth of my son was a real game changer. I experienced the joy, exhaustion and overwhelm of being a new mum. Later I had to cope with the increased stress of going back to work, finding suitable childcare and juggling all the commitments and responsibilities of motherhood. Consequently, my health slipped from the top of my to-do list. To be able to give the best of myself I knew this had to change.
Throughout this time my inner voice was telling me to use my therapies more and start practising again.
Fast forward a few years and I launched Sarah Gordon Holistic Therapy. My passion is helping busy women who are juggling the demands of life and empowering them to prioritise their health and well-being.

"I have had a few different therapy treatments at Sarah Gordon Holistic Therapy. I have loved and felt the benefits from them all. Sarah is so talented at what she does – to me she seems to have magic hands. She has created a relaxing and comfortable treatment room, and for the time that I am there I feel like I am away from everything. It is great to prioritise time for myself and my well-being, something that Sarah is passionate about advocating. What sets Sarah above the rest is the fact that she truly cares about her clients. I talk about my health in a holistic way and she always listens attentively and offers great advice. I feel safe in her professional hands – metaphorically and literally! The treatments are amazing. Thank you, Sarah for providing such a wonderful service." - Anita
"Totally amazing massage. I am a busy working Mum and came to Sarah feeling a bit run down from the juggle of work and family life. I had a reflexology and aromatherapy massage which was deeply relaxing and made me feel back on top of life again. Sarah is professional, warm and kind, and it was so nice to feel that someone was looking after ME for a change. I will definitely be back for more. Thank you Sarah." – Jo
