Louise Graham,
Massage Therapist

Personal introduction from
Beyond Alchemy Massage Therapist,
Lou Graham:

Many therapists come to their work through a life changing experience. I am no exception.

I ran a whole food catering business quite happily until I was told that my fatigue was not anaemia, but kidney failure and that I would need a transplant quite soon. My mum very bravely offered one of hers as we had the same blood group. With my kidney transplant I felt so much better, but had the most incredible appetite ! After putting on 3 stone I decided that I needed to be away from food, but wanted to continue working in a nurturing and caring environment, so I chose to go on a local massage course, really connected with it, and the rest is history. ...

I have thoroughly enjoyed studying and working as a therapist for the last 20 years and am still learning and discovering more ways to make you feel & look even better !

It is partly a gift, according to many of my clients, and I feel very honoured to be in this profession as it is a balance of art and science, strength and sensitivity, and of course being a great listener.

I strongly believe in the universal idea of abundance and of filling the senses. The overall Beyond Alchemy Massage experience includes the decisions of which treatments to include, the choice of essential oils, the depth of pressure, the colours of the towels (!) and the choice of music to float away on. This covers all the senses except taste ... though you may like to treat yourself to a delicious snack or a hot chocci afterwards ! Mmmm...

All consultations are outside of the treatment time booked whether it is for 30 minutes or 2 hours ! I will also give you what ever else may be needed- be it a contact number, the remainder of your essential oil mixture, lending you a book, or giving you a piece of my lastest cake !

As I have been Louise Wheadon on all my business cards etc. for 19 years I have included this name as well in some areas of my web site (in case any previous clients remember my name but may have lost my contact details). However, last year I got married, hence my current name, Louise Kitty Graham, which I would like to embrace now & in the future. So sorry for any confusion ... but I.m stil the same lovely

Lou ! x
