This full body massage includes a foot, face and scalp massage. Bespoke essential oils are combined with soothing massage. My focus will be around areas of discomfort, often around the upper back and neck but it will also be focussed on helping you to relax deeply. Especially suited for those who would like to manage or reduce both mental and physical pain and discomfort and for those who suffer from stress, anxiety, and insomnia.
Rose is combined with Sandalwood, and Geranium to create a beautiful and hydrating facial oil. It is lightweight, non greasy and easily absorbed. This relaxing facial treatment includes a neck and shoulder massage. It reduces jaw and facial tension and will leave your skin feeling softer, brighter and healthier. Also helpful for those who have headache and migraine.
Using a combination of pressure point work, massage and passive movement for optimum results, this non invasive foot therapy will leave your feet feeling revived and refreshed. It will release tension and relax the whole of your body and mind. Clients say that a full foot treatment feels like having a full body massage.
A treat for your feet! Foot soak, exfoliation, hard skin removal, cuticle soften/tidy, nail file and shape. Followed by 30 minutes of therapeutic reflexology and foot massage, using healing plant oils to soften and moisturise skin and heal cracks and fissures.
Especially suited for mature skins or sun damaged skin. Ingredients include Rose essential oil, sustainably sourced Sandalwood essential oil and Geranium. This facial oil will help to rejuvenate, plump and soften. It is lightweight and non greasy so easily absorbed by the skin. It smells amazing! Use as a moisturiser or night oil.
To take home — many clients now use it as part of their own wellbeing routine.
The Service
My name is Rachel and I have been working as a massage therapist, reflexologist and aromatherapist for over 30 years. Supporting people with my holistic therapies has been my passion and I feel very fortunate to do something I care deeply about.
For the past 13 years I have been offering affordable holistic therapies in Sussex, working with clients from all walks of life who come for relief of pain, relaxation and emotional support during stressful or difficult times.
When we experience persistent pain, stress or fatigue it can affect us on all levels — physically, mentally and emotionally. My treatments are always holistic and tailored to the individual. I draw on a combination of massage, aromatherapy, reflexology, and relaxation and pain relief techniques.
My treatments are slow and unhurried. Focus is on slowing down mentally as well as physically. I use a heated massage couch to enhance your massage and aid relaxation by soothing tired muscles and calming the mind from the moment your treatment begins.
Massage and dementia
After further training in 2014 I became qualified to use massage and reflexology to work specifically with people living with dementia. These treatments are particularly helpful, at any stage of dementia.
Aromatherapy massage is perfect for older people living in care homes, as it can be performed 'in situ' — in a chair, bed or wheelchair. It's gentle, non invasive and effective.

Testimonials
As published on the current Bliss Holistics website.
"Rachel is AMAZING... I went to see her with a shoulder problem, I have been seeing her nearly every week since then - using reflexology, aromatherapy and massage to treat my shoulder. It is now so much better - so much so I have avoided surgery and am now able to strengthen it again, now the pain has receded. I cannot recommend her enough, Rachel is very knowledgeable, is incredibly attentive and tailors her treatment to each individual"Vicky W. - Hove
"I have seen Rachel for massages in the last months and the improvements to my circulation, and overall well-being has given me a new lease on life. I have many damaged areas that can't be fixed but can be eased. Very grateful to have found her. I am in less pain and move better than I did before. The background work at adjusting the oil mixes for my fussy skin have been much appreciated. Looking forward to the next one."Victoria M. - Hove
"I feel AMAZING!! I have had many massages in the past 15 years but Rachel makes my back feel great for weeks after. Rachel asks before each massage how I have been and where to focus on and she listens to me. Massage for me is an essential to keep me comfortable. I wouldn't go anywhere else now"Melanie P - Brighton
"I suffer with tension headaches/migraines, often set off by stiff neck and shoulders. I visited Rachel and indulged in the most relaxing back, neck and head massage followed by facial massage. Absolute heaven. A truly incredible experience. Rachel listens to you and tailors the treatment. A warm and cosy room, gorgeous smelling oils to sooth away all the tension and stress, and lastly a delicious cup of rose tea. I highly recommend Bliss holistic to any one looking for a caring and kind therapist, not to forget her magic hands. Loving the rose oil I bought for my face too. Thank you Rachel .Kitty P. - Hove

Book a treatment
Today, every "Book a treatment" button on the Bliss Holistics site leads to a contact form. A finished site would let clients pick a real slot from Rachel's diary, and let Rachel confirm or move it with one tap.
This is a working illustration only. It does not send anything, store anything, or take payment — a finished site would confirm real times from Rachel's diary.
On the finished site, this step would send the request to Rachel and show you a confirmation once she has accepted it. In this preview nothing is sent — to book today, call 01273 725134 or email rachel.masey@gmail.com.

About this preview
This is a one-page concept preview, built in an afternoon by Fully Booked from what is publicly on the current Bliss Holistics website. It is a taste of a direction, not the finished thing — the real build would be considerably more detailed, and every word and price on it would be checked with Rachel first.
All of the pages on the current site, each given proper room:
Plus Rachel's own photography at full size, every treatment in full, live booking on her own diary, search-engine and analytics set-up, the complete price list, and working contact forms — on her own web address, with no advertising banner above her name.
The appointment days and times in the booking section are illustrative and nothing on this page submits, stores or sends anything. Three of the twelve published testimonials — those written by families after a relative's death — have been left off this preview out of respect; Rachel would decide whether and how they appear on a finished site. The blog is not reproduced. There is no photograph of Rachel because none is published on the current site.
