The Hidden Sanctuary Wellness Retreat

I had a breathwork session with Jojo and it was an absolute revelation. I wasn't sure what to expect but Jojo immediately put me at ease and I left the session feeling more relaxed than I had in months. Jojo led me through various exercises which resulted in the muscles around my rib cage actually relaxing (I didn't realise they were permanently tense) and it felt wonderful. The final breathing exercise left me feeling both supremely relaxed and super energised. I can't recommend Jojo highly enough - she is so professional and calming. I will definitely be back!

I suffered a back spasm in Jan 2021 and spent over a year seeing a Specialist twice a week for treatment to no real avail. I have only seen Katie 4 times over a 6 week period and without wanting to tempt any fate, this lovely lady in my opinion is an absolute miracle worker with healing hands. Very highly recommended!!

Treatment from by Naomi was nothing short of amazing! I had a full body massage including reflexology, I felt full of energy afterwards and was a great start to my day. Thank you Naomi, I hope to return.

I have been visiting The Hidden Sanctuary for a few years now and have tried a variety of the treatments on offer, they have always left me feeling very relaxed and cared for. The treatments can stay the same if you particularly like it, but I would highly recommend that you hand yourself over to Katie's professional experience as she is very highly qualified at what she does, I look forward to the cosy, warm surroundings with wood paneled walls, ambient lighting and an amazing playlist of sounds that relax you straight away. You are given a warm sarong and warm bamboo water bowl to rinse your feet in while Katie skillfully hears exactly what you may need for your treatment, which can be adapted every time so that you receive the healing and relaxation you need at that particular time. Because of this I have experienced treatments that I would not have thought about before, I usually went for a fully body massage, but Katie introduced reflexology and that was a game changer, I never expected that to have such profound effects. The effects are more than just physical, they extend to a deeper level, I feel calmer, as well as relaxed. Recently, I have been suffering from respiratory problems, I have been on two courses of steroids and then antibiotics for a very bad chest. Katie introduced me to the Red Light Therapy. After a full treatment with acupuncture which really calmed down my breathing and anxiety and massage. I went under the warming Red Light Therapy lamps for 20 minutes (face up) and it felt amazing. Katie recommended this course as they use it on Covid wards and it has anti-inflammatory effects within the body (amongst a long list of other scientifically proven benefits not to mention hormonal too - which is another issue with me!). I booked a course of 12 straight away and Katie suggested I use it as much as possible initially to benefit from an intense course at first due to the fact that I have been unwell for about 3 weeks now with my chest. I have been for about 4 days in a row for 20 minutes each, mixing with the front and back of my body and I even had a long session with 20 minutes either side. I feel a completely different person. My mental health is better as I feel stronger and my chest feels less tight. My body feels more relaxed therefore I feel calmer. I'm not usually one for writing reviews (I just give a star rating), but after a few months of being unwell with one thing or another, and the medication taking it out of me. The Japanese Anma and the Red Light Therapy has been incredible. Don't get me wrong, having a massage on its own is simply gorgeous but combined with the above the benefits are so much deeper.
