A place to learn new skills, rest and reconnect

The Skin&Soul

3 Night Retreat

A Massage Training course made of dreams

12th -15th November 2026

somerset, uk

A fully immersive Body and Facial massage training experience, created exclusively for therapists who want to reconnect with their creativity, deepen their skill and fall back in love with their work.

In our busy world, we often forget to pause and simply be. We rush from clients to family life, to scrolling in our downtime, convinced busy is dedication.

But when we stop, rest, and reconnect, everything shifts. Stillness brings intuition, creativity, and a deeper sense of presence.

The Skin&Soul Retreat was created to help you slow down, realign with your gifts, and learn a powerful, intentional massage treatment that feels deeply supportive and meaningful.

This retreat is the first time I am teaching my immersive face-and-body experience, rooted in the 2-hour Skin&Soul ritual I deliver in my clinic. It is a deeply intentional, soulful, full-body treatment using warm oils, curated music, continuous flowing movements, plus a stunning facial that brings everything together. This is not a treatment you perform; it's a sensory journey that asks you to believe deeply in the power of touch and express yourself through your movements. And you can split it into 3 aligned new treatments for your business.

PLEASE NOTE THIS IS NOT FOR BEGINNERS

You'll learn:

-My advanced Skin&Soul Facial massage

-My most popular 90-minute back & face Signature Treatment and

-A full 2-hour body and face 'Skin&Soul Experience'.

Once learned, this becomes a premium offering clients actively seek out, rebook, and talk about. A treatment that elevates your menu and positions you as a therapist working with depth, presence, and purpose.

So why am I including body work?

Because I am constantly asked for it. And because the women on my first retreat asked for more time, more immersion, and an extra night. So here it is! Body and face massage taught slowly, intentionally, and from experience.


The next evolution of Skin&Soul.

This 3-night retreat is held on Thursday 12th - Sunday 15th November 2026 at the beautiful Old Rectory House in Somerset, a peaceful and self-contained sanctuary just a short drive from Taunton and just a 10-minute walk to the sea. Once you arrive, everything is on site: accommodation, meals, workshops, spa facilities, and our wellbeing & training studio, so you can fully switch off and settle into the experience. Taunton has an excellent direct train service from London and even Leeds, and Bristol Airport is connected well to the rest of the UK if you want to fly. I’ll be arranging a car to collect anyone arriving at Taunton station, making your journey smooth from start to finish. We have welcomed therapists from Yorkshire, the Wirral, and even Glasgow!

Most travel solo, so please don’t worry if you’re coming alone, you’ll be added to a group beforehand to start connecting, and the time we spend together always creates the most beautiful, supportive bonds. The combination of luxury, tranquillity, sea views, and thoughtful details creates the perfect environment for deep rest, reflection, and elevation.

Reviews

"Jo has managed to create an ingenious fusion of massage training, genuine human connection, and a safe, nurturing space to talk, share, learn, and grow. It was a tranquil haven where kindred spirits gathered, openly sharing their struggles and strengths, forming bonds that would last a lifetime."

Amy

"I find visualisation very powerful, and during the meditation I saw myself step into the future me! I loved chatting amongst us and I felt heard, loved and appreciated. When we did the facial flow on the last day, it felt so different, like I had shifted and had permission to let go and let my intuition take over"

Lisa

"I left not only with a host of incredible new massage skills but also with a newfound confidence, drive, and inspiration. It was an unforgettable weekend filled with shared moments, meaningful conversations, and lifelong connections. Our activities ranged from spa time and beach walks to meditation, yoga, and the most extraordinary sound bath."

Ready to Retreat ?

With just a few spaces, this retreat is designed to be deeply personal and immersive.
Therapists who joined us felt they experienced significant shifts, clarity, confidence, emotional healing, and a new sense of direction in both their massage and their life. The transformation was undeniable.
I’m so excited to offer this experience again.


If you feel excited by this, I’d love to hold this space for you!
