✨ Something new is coming to Autumn Sunshine Massage… ✨

I’ve just completed my Indian Head Massage diploma, and I’m so excited to be adding it to my treatment menu from late September. 💆‍♀️

This is a beautiful, deeply relaxing treatment focusing on the upper back, shoulders, neck, head and scalp — exactly the areas that seem to collect every bit of tension life throws at us!

And let’s be honest… sometimes we don't need another thing to do, another thing to organise or another person to look after.

We just need someone to say:

“Come on. Sit down. I've got you.” ❤️

Indian Head Massage is performed seated, with the shoulders and upper back uncovered, allowing me to work into those areas properly before moving up through the neck, head and scalp.

I’m really looking forward to bringing this into my little Autumn Sunshine world and giving you another way to switch off, breathe out and have some much-needed time that's just for you.

🌿 Indian Head Massage will be available to book from late September.

Keep your eyes peeled… I’ll be sharing more very soon. 👀✨

🍂☀️ ONE YEAR OF MY LITTLE THERAPY ROOM ☀️🍂

I honestly can't believe it's been a whole year. ❤️

This September marks one year since I opened the doors to my little therapy room at home.

But the story of Autumn Sunshine actually started a little before that…

Two years ago, I took a leap and started offering massage from my little mobile business, travelling to women in their own homes.

Slowly, it grew.

And then came the decision to turn one of the rooms in our home into my own little space for massage. I remember being so excited… and probably a little terrified too! 😂

A year later, I can honestly say I absolutely love having this little room.

I love creating a warm, cosy space where women can come in, close the door behind them and for that hour (or a little longer 😉), everything else can wait.

No rushing around.
No having to look after everyone else.
No thinking about the washing, the shopping, work or what's for dinner.

Just time to breathe, relax and let someone else look after you for a change. ❤️

And I feel incredibly lucky that so many lovely women have trusted me with that time.

Every booking, every recommendation, every lovely message and review, every woman who has come back and said “I really needed that”…

It genuinely means so much to me.

So, to celebrate one year of my therapy room, I'm giving a little something back. 🥰

✨ Throughout September, every treatment booked will have 15 EXTRA MINUTES added completely free. ✨

Not because I want to discount my massage, but because I wanted to give you a little more of something that I know most women don't get enough of…

Time for themselves. ❤️

Thank you for supporting Autumn Sunshine, whether you've been with me since the mobile massage days or you've only recently found me.

It's been quite a journey so far… and I'm very excited to see where the next chapter takes me. 🍂☀️

Thank you for being part of it. ❤️

🍂Autumn is here… and maybe you’re ready to slow down too. 🍂

Whether you're juggling children, work, a home, caring for other people, running around after everyone else… or you're at a completely different stage of life where your days look very different now.

Being a woman can be exhausting.

Our bodies carry so much of what life throws at us. The tight shoulders from stress, the aching back from being on your feet all day, the jaw you don't realise you're clenching, the tiredness that seems to sit in your bones.

And sometimes you don't need another thing to do.

You just need someone to look after you for a little while.

Massage can help ease muscle tension, soothe those everyday aches and pains, encourage deeper relaxation and give your mind the chance to quieten down too.

And honestly, sometimes it's simply about lying down in a warm, cosy room, closing your eyes and knowing that for the next hour…

nobody needs anything from you.🤎

So as the evenings draw in and we head into autumn, make some time for yourself.

You don't have to be falling apart to deserve a massage.

You don't need a reason.

You deserve to feel good in your body and have a little time that's just yours.

Somewhere along the way, so many women started believing that looking after themselves was a luxury.

It's not.

You spend your days looking after everyone else. Working. Running a home. Worrying. Carrying the mental load. Holding everything together... even when you're running on empty.

Then your body starts whispering.
Tight shoulders.
An aching back.
Headaches.
Poor sleep.
Feeling permanently tense.

Massage isn't about pampering.

It's about giving your nervous system permission to stop being on alert all the time. It's about easing the aches you've learned to live with. It's about walking away feeling lighter, calmer and more like yourself again.

Whether you're navigating menopause, juggling family life, working long hours, or simply feeling worn out, my massage treatments are tailored to *you*. No rushed appointments. No conveyor belt treatments. Just time, care and a space where you don't have to be anything for anyone else.

I'm Ruth, and I genuinely love helping women reconnect with themselves through the power of touch.

Based in my peaceful therapy room, with mobile appointments also available, I help women feel calmer, move more freely and leave feeling like they've finally taken a deep breath.

If your body has been asking you to slow down... maybe this is your sign to listen. 💛

☀️ **Summer is here... but are you taking care of yourself too?** 🌿

Long walks, days in the garden, family adventures, holidays, and making memories... summer can be wonderful, but it can also leave your body feeling tired, achy, and in need of a little kindness.

Imagine taking just one hour that's completely yours.

A quiet space.
Gentle music.
A chance to switch off the constant thinking.
To let your shoulders soften.
To breathe a little deeper.
To leave feeling lighter than when you arrived.

Whether you're juggling work, family, menopause, or simply life's endless to-do list, massage isn't a luxury—it's an investment in *you*.

I'm Ruth, and at Autumn Sunshine Massage I offer a warm, welcoming space where women can relax, recharge, and feel genuinely cared for. I also provide a mobile massage service if you'd prefer to enjoy your treatment in the comfort of your own home.

This summer, don't just soak up the sunshine... make time to restore yourself too. 🌸💆‍♀️

✨ Your body carries you through every season. It deserves a little care in return.

📩 Message me to book your appointment or to ask any questions. I'd love to welcome you.

Your body has been with you through everything. 💚

Through long days.
Through stress and sleepless nights.
Through pregnancy, motherhood, careers, challenges and change.
Through seasons where you've given everything to everyone else.

But how often do you stop and ask:
"How am I doing?"

Women's bodies are incredible, but they also carry so much.

Tension held in the shoulders.
Stress stored in the body.
A nervous system constantly switched to "on."
A mind that never seems to get a quiet moment.

Massage is more than muscles and knots.

It's a moment to reconnect with yourself.
A chance to slow down.
A reminder that your health matters too.

Whether you're navigating busy life, hormonal changes, menopause, recovery, or simply feeling like you need some space to breathe — your body deserves support at every stage.

Because looking after yourself isn't about being indulgent.

It's about being in tune with the body that carries you through life. 🤍

Women have been taught to ignore their bodies.

Ignore the headache.
Push through the exhaustion.
Carry on when your shoulders are screaming.
Smile, even when you're overwhelmed.

Somewhere along the way, we've mistaken coping for thriving.

Your body isn't being dramatic.
It isn't letting you down.
It's talking to you.

Sometimes it whispers...
Sometimes it shouts.

Massage isn't about "fixing" you. It's about giving your body a chance to be heard.

When your nervous system feels safe, your muscles soften. Your breathing changes. Your mind stops racing. Your body remembers what calm feels like.

Maybe that's what self-love really is...
Not bubble baths or face masks.

Just listening when your body says,
"I need a break." 💚

✨ Welcome to your little pocket of calm... ✨

Life asks so much of us as women. We spend our days looking after everyone else, juggling work, family, appointments, endless to-do lists... and somewhere along the way, we forget to look after ourselves.

My therapy room is more than just a place for a massage. It's a cosy, welcoming space where you can press pause for a while. A place where you're listened to, supported, and cared for.

Every massage is tailored to you and what your body needs on that day—whether you're carrying stress, aching muscles, navigating menopause, or simply craving an hour to switch off from the world.

You don't need a special reason to take care of yourself. You are reason enough. 💚

📍Based in the comfort of my peaceful home therapy room.
📅 Booking is easy—just send me a message or book online.

🌞 Heatwave update...

Someone accidentally texted my massage business instead of Kevin... then blamed the heat for frying their brain! 🤣

In fairness, when it's this hot, even our phones are getting confused. 📱🥵

Stay hydrated everyone... and double-check who you're texting! 😂

✨ There’s something special about not having to go anywhere.✨

No rushing out of the door. No battling traffic. No trying to relax after you've just driven home.

With mobile massage, relaxation comes to *you*.

Whether you're feeling exhausted, carrying tension in your shoulders, struggling with aches and pains, or simply in need of some time for yourself, I bring the massage table, blankets, oils and calming atmosphere right to your home.

After your treatment, you can stay wrapped up in that lovely relaxed feeling for the rest of the day. Pop the kettle on, curl up on the sofa, have a nap, or enjoy some quiet time knowing you've done something good for yourself.

Many of the women I treat spend so much time looking after everyone else that they rarely make themselves a priority. A massage is a chance to pause, recharge and give your body and mind the care they deserve.

💛 Professional mobile massage
💛 Relax in the comfort of your own home
💛 Daytime, evening and weekend appointments
💛 Covering the local area

Because sometimes self-care isn't a luxury—it's exactly what you need.
