✨ MEET THE TEAM — NICOLA ✨
Level 4 Sports & Holistic Therapist | Qualified Teacher

Combining her love of anatomy, movement and wellbeing, Nicola takes both a physical and holistic approach to helping people feel better in their bodies.

With years of hands-on experience, she works intuitively with each client — whether that’s relieving muscular tension, supporting recovery and mobility, or simply giving someone the space to slow down, switch off and reset.

Alongside her work in the treatment room, Nicola is also a qualified teacher, sharing her knowledge and experience with the next generation of therapists.

So what’s Nicola like when she’s not treating or teaching? 👀

❤️ Something I love:
The gym!! I love feeling and getting stronger 💪🏾 There’s no better feeling for me! The gym is my happy place, mentally and physically.

🙅🏽‍♀️ Something I can’t stand:
When people chat to each other on the gym machines like it’s a podcast 🙄😅

🥤 My ultimate treat:
A Snickers milkshake and a chicken kebab — heaven! 😋

🌊 My perfect day off:
Going for a walk by the water. My favourite places are the Albert Dock and Crosby Beach. Chill, eat some good food and maybe have a spritz cocktail 😋

👑 Something people might not know about me:
I won Miss Pontins… and a free holiday back there! 😅🤣

💆🏽‍♀️ What I love most about what I do:
Making people feel better. Not just physically, but helping them relax their nervous system, feel at ease and feel completely unjudged. I love bringing laughter into the treatment room too — life’s too short not to have some peace and laughter in it. 😘✨️

So there you have it — Nicola: therapist, teacher, gym lover and, apparently, former Miss Pontins. 👑🤣

So that's all folks! 💙

You've met us all now — the full Essential Bodyworks bunch!

✨️ Meet the Team – Natalie ✨️
Natalie Enderby | Colon Hydrotherapist

Next up in our Meet the Team series is our lovely Natalie! 👋🏼

Natalie is a qualified RICTAT Colon Hydrotherapist with a particular interest in the powerful connection between gut health and mental wellbeing.

After experiencing the benefits of colonic hydrotherapy herself, Natalie was inspired to train so she could support others on their own health journey. She is also qualified in Abdominal Massage and Hypnotherapy, bringing a rounded and supportive approach to her work.

❤️ Something I love:
My family. My three boys are my greatest achievement and I’m incredibly proud that they’re mine!

🙈 Something I cannot stand:
Cleaning cat litter trays! I have FIVE indoor cats — four Sphynx cats and my 18-year-old black cat, Pink. Add my ridiculously keen sense of smell and honestly… cleaning litter trays is practically a full-time job. 🤣💩

💧 My go-to drink:
Water! My life changed at 42 when I discovered the best drink in the world. 😂 I religiously drink 2–3 litres a day and I’ve never felt better. I don’t drink alcohol anymore either — my body is a temple! ❤️

☀️ My perfect day off:
Spending time with my family, especially on a family holiday. Time is precious and making memories is even more important.

👀 Something you probably don't know about me:
I LOVE quizzes! So much so that I once appeared on ITV's Cash Trapped with Bradley Walsh! I lasted two episodes and unfortunately didn't win, but I had loads of fun and hopefully showed my boys that you can do anything if you put your mind to it.

🤗 My favourite thing about my job:
Sharing my knowledge and making clients laugh. It’s so common for people to arrive feeling nervous or anxious, but seeing them leave with a smile on their face and excited to come back is one of my favourite parts of what I do.

And that pretty much sums Natalie up — family at the heart of everything, passionate about helping people feel better, always ready with plenty of knowledge and a laugh… and apparently spending the rest of her waking hours cleaning up after five cats. 🤣💩❤️

We’re almost at the end of our Meet the Team series now… just ONE person left to meet. 👀

Gee, who could it possibly be…? 👀😏💙

✨ MEET THE TEAM — BECKIE ✨
Holistic & Massage Therapist | MFHT

With a love of holistic wellbeing and hands-on therapy, Beckie offers a wide range of treatments including Deep Tissue Massage, Swedish Massage, Warm Bamboo and Hot Stone Massage, Reflexology, Indian Head Massage, Ear Candling and Reiki.
A member of the Federation of Holistic Therapists, Beckie also has a creative side and makes beautiful handcrafted crystal jewellery. ✨

So what’s Beckie like when she’s not in the treatment room? 👀

❤️ Something I love:
Strawberry cheesecake! 🍓🍰

🙅🏽‍♀️ Something I can’t stand:
Ironing! 🙄😂

🍹 My go to drink:
I don’t generally drink, but on the very occasional night I do, it’s a vodka and fresh orange juice.

☀️ My perfect day off:
Sitting in the sunshine with a good book. 📖☀️

🎶 Something people might not know about me:
I’m a secret raver and absolutely love my trance music! 💃🏽🎶😁

💆🏽‍♀️ What I love most about what I do:
One of the best parts of being a massage therapist is watching someone leave my table moving differently from when they walked in. ❤️

From relaxing treatments and crystal jewellery to strawberry cheesecake and trance music — there’s definitely more to Beckie than meets the eye! ✨🎶😂

✨ MEET THE TEAM — CLARE ✨
Spa & Pregnancy Specialist

Creating deeply relaxing experiences is what Clare does best. 🫶🏽

Specialising in Pregnancy Treatments, Manual Lymphatic Drainage Massage, Hot Stone Therapy, Aromatherapy Massage, Holistic Facials, Reiki and Reflexology, Clare is all about helping her clients switch off, relax and feel looked after.

Now let’s get to know the person behind the treatments… 🫶🏽

❤️ Something I love:
Walking — getting out for a good walk and some fresh air.

🙅🏽‍♀️ Something I can’t stand:
Football! ⚽️🙄

🍺 My favourite treat:
A lager and a chicken wrap 🍺🌯

🏡 My perfect day off:
Relaxing and catching up with family and friends.

✨ Something people might not know about me:
Even though I’m always chatting and making sure my clients are happy and comfortable, I’m actually quite a quiet, shy person, who is also still figuring life out too. ❤️

💆🏽‍♀️ What I love most about what I do:
Making my clients feel relaxed and comfortable.

A little glimpse into Clare outside the treatment room — quiet at heart, happiest with the people she loves, and always making sure those around her feel comfortable too. 🫶🏽✨

✨ MEET THE TEAM ✨

We thought it was about time you got to know the faces behind Essential Bodyworks a little better! 🫶🏽

You might know what we do… but how well do you know the people behind the treatments? 👀😁

Over the next few weeks, we'll be introducing each member of the team — what we specialise in, what we love about what we do, and a few things you probably don't know about us!

And who better to start with than the woman behind it all… Sharon! 🫶🏽

🌟 SHARON — Founder & Naturopath

Sharon has been a Naturopathic Health Practitioner since 2003, specialising in Colonic Irrigation, Naturopathic Nutritional Healing and Structural Integration. She's also a qualified teacher and runs our accredited training centre, helping both clients and students achieve the best possible outcomes.

But enough of the professional stuff… let's get to know Sharon! 😁

❤️ Things I love:
Far too many things to mention! 😂 I love learning and I'm always doing another course — I'm a bit of a sponge. I also love nature, the great outdoors and getting creative with marketing.

🙅🏽‍♀️ Absolutely cannot stand:
Burger van smells. They make me heave! 🤢😂

🍹 My go-to drink/treat:
Piña Colada… I feel a song coming on! 🎶😂

🌿 My perfect day off:
Doing absolutely nothing — which is very rare, so it's a true indulgence when I do! A lazy morning in bed reading, chatting over brunch, followed by a walk in nature.

😂 Something clients might not know about me:
I sleep in an eye mask AND mouth tape. I'd scare the s**t out of anyone if I answered the door without checking first! 🤣

❤️ My favourite thing about what I do:
Making a difference to people's wellbeing. It makes my heart sing, simple as that. If I've helped change someone's life, then it's made my life worth living. 💯

So there you have it — the woman behind Essential Bodyworks! 🫶🏽

Who's next? 👀

Keep an eye out as we introduce the rest of the team!

🚨 HASSELL STREET CAR PARK UNDER THREAT 🚨
Many of you know how difficult it already is to park near Hassell Street.
Newcastle-under-Lyme Borough Council is proposing to build housing on part of the public car park, reducing parking from around 38 spaces to approximately 25.
This car park supports more than 10 local businesses, including healthcare providers. Patients, customers and staff already struggle to find a space.
Even more concerning, the proposed new housing will create additional parking demand, putting even greater pressure on the remaining spaces.
This isn't about opposing housing.
It's about protecting local businesses, patient access and the future of our town centre.
Over 2,000 people opposed previous proposals.
Please take five minutes to send your comments to the Council before 21 August.
Every individual response counts.
Please share this post to help spread the word.

✨ Your body remembers what your mind has learned to suppress.

People-pleasing. Self-sacrifice. Overthinking. Staying in control. Holding it all in.

These patterns aren't flaws—they're often nervous system adaptations that once helped you feel safe. But they don't have to define you forever.

Through conscious breathwork and gentle somatic movement, you can begin to release stored tension, reconnect with your body, and create space for greater ease and emotional freedom.

🌿 Join me for a 1:1 breathwork experience, supported by live healing instruments, designed to gently regulate your nervous system, quiet the mind, and guide you into a deeply restorative, blissful state.

When the body feels safe, healing naturally unfolds.

💫 If you're ready to let go of what you've been carrying, I'd love to support you on your journey.

30/07/2026

Here at the Human Garage with my partner in crime Lynn Sumner at Cranage Estate. We are working through fascia manoeuvres to release and let go both physically and emotionally. Very easy yet powerful techniques of self empowerment, feeling totally wrung out but freezer. Will definitely be more upright at the end of the week. Similar to Structural release but you can do it on yourself so taking full responsibility for your own healing process.

🚧 Travel Update 🚧

Please be aware that King Street is currently closed due to road resurfacing works.

If you're attending an appointment today, please allow plenty of extra time for your journey. The diversion takes you through a one-way system, and traffic is building up.

We look forward to seeing you safely. 💙
