Holistic Massage Therapy in Skipton & Surrounding Areas
Welcome to Lavender
Welcome to Lavender Holistic Therapy.
Every treatment is tailored to your individual needs, whether you’re looking for pain relief, deep relaxation, improved mobility, or simply a moment to switch off from everyday life.
Based in Skipton, I offer treatments from my cosy home therapy room, as well as mobile appointments across the surrounding area.
Hi, I’m Dominika — holistic therapist and founder of Lavender Holistic Therapy.
My journey into massage and complementary therapies began in a very real, hands-on way. After moving to the UK during the COVID-19 lockdowns, I worked in hospitality, care, and everything in between. Life was tough, and I realised I wanted something more practical, independent, and meaningful. Something I could do with my hands that also made a difference to others.
Popular Treatments
Deep Tissue
A slower, more focused massage using firm pressure to target deeper layers of muscle. Ideal for chronic tension, physically demanding jobs, stiffness, or muscular aches, helping to improve mobility and support recovery.
Swedish Massage
A relaxing full-body massage using flowing techniques to ease muscle tension, improve circulation, and calm the nervous system. Perfect if you’re looking to unwind, reduce stress, and support your overall wellbeing.
Indian Head Massage
Performed comfortably on the massage table, this treatment includes the upper back, shoulders, neck, scalp, and face. Inspired by Ayurvedic traditions, it’s ideal for relieving stress, headaches, and upper-body tension.
