About Us

Passion for Massage and Potion Making

I have always been passionate about massage and potion making. Growing up in England, I would gather rose petals, put them in a jar of water, and leave them in the sun—a simple method of infusion.

Educational Background and Sports

I attended a Masonic boarding school for girls, where I excelled in sports, becoming captain for netball, hockey, swimming, drama, and tennis. I was also a house prefect and head of house. I was the school swimming champion and continue to enjoy swimming.

Transition to Aromatherapy and Massage

As an adult, I left the corporate world to become a full-time mum. Needing mental stimulation, I took an aromatherapy massage course with Dr Vivian Lunny, which I found fascinating. I began incorporating what I had learned into my life and family.

 

Shortly after this, I immigrated to New Zealand. Although this was a big move (it meant leaving my
siblings and friends), I had a good feeling about coming 🙂

Journey to New Zealand

Continued Education and Professional Roles

After settling in, I embraced life fully and returned to studying, completing many courses and certificates. I served as the education officer for the Massage Institute of New Zealand, playing an active role until it merged with the Therapeutic Massage Association (TMA). I attended the AGM in 2007 intending to resign but left the meeting as president—a surprising turn of events! Recently, I joined the executive committee of the New Zealand Register of Holistic Aromatherapists (NZROHA). Serving as Chairperson for 5 years
