It's been a while since my last post - a bit too late now to wish you a happy new year, but I do hope that 2025 is being kind to you so far.
Price increase:
First update: it's been a couple of years since my last price increase and I had intended to leave it a bit longer until my next raise but costs have continued to rise in particular that of the training courses that I need to attend to keep my skills up to date. From April I will be adding £5 to the price of treatments, so 60 minutes will be £50; 45 minutes - £40; 30 minutes - £30. A quick check across Sheffield practitioners has reassured me that this is still very competitive; it is important to me to keep massage financially accessible to as many people as possible. In line with that, I will be extending the £5 discount to those who have been having two or more treatments a month for longer than six months to the half hour appointments. For those who immediately qualified for the discount on longer appointments when I last increased my prices, this will be the first increase since 2020.
What's been on the radio:
This is a fascinating listen about the relationship between exercise, diet and our weight.

I can also recommend the earlier programme that is referred to. I have not been able to find the link as yet, but on looking through the archive I spotted many other interesting episodes on subjects such as food and sporting, theatre and dance performance as well as the gut biome and various foods and drinks that are rising in popularity.
