Reviews

“Loved my experience! I was recommended to visit A touch of calm by a friend and i found Francis to be very mature and professional. I work with young children so walking into such a peaceful environment made me feel very relaxed straight away. I had a lot of tension in my neck and shoulders which had caused me a headache for nearly 24 hours. She was able to pin point what was causing it and my headache was gone after a few hours of my booking. Francis gave me advice to assist with future headaches and i will be visiting her again in the near future. I am already recommending her to friends and family, thanks so much! – Laura”

“Frances is excellent at what she does and gave me a great massage to help ease my tension. Not only this but she also showed me some suggestions in how I can stretch out the muscles that were causing my tension. Frances is also very responsive to emails and overall offered me a great experience. I will definitely be recommending her to all my friends in the future! Thanks for a great massage Frances :)”

“I went to see Francis to get a massage yesterday and I have to say not only how comfortable I felt, but also how mature and professional Francis is for a young girl with big aspirations. Francis went above and beyond with making me feel at ease whilst also setting the “perfect mood”. Francis listened to where my concerns were and performed amazing massage abilities. After having quite a few massages in my time from some quite “big named” companies, I will most definitely be choosing this business from now on. Thankyou so much Francis for my magical massage yesterday and I will definitely be passing on your name, x”

“This is my 4th or 5th visit to A Touch of Calm and it’s always a pleasure. A few weeks ago, I hyper extended my right shoulder playing touch football and Frances worked her magic on what has been a very painful injury. Thanks to Frances’ treatments, I can use my shoulder to its full extent again. I would recommend this place for both sport and relaxation massage.”
