“First experience with them, shop looked nice and clean, nicely done up. Barber was speaking to regulars and cutting hair. I saw three haircuts before I got on the seat and each one looked amazing. I got a medium fade and the barber took his time and looked at every detail. End result is a really good haircut and beard trim. The aftershave rubbed on and oil sprayed on smelt really good too. Definitely going again.”

Great Service!!”

“I would highly recommend Laura. After struggling with problems with my back, neck, shoulder and plantar fasciitis for some time and seeing three other physios, I happened to see an advert for Tree of Life. I am so pleased that I did. Within a few minutes of my assessment appointment, Laura noticed that one hip was lower than the other and that in turn had caused all the other problems. None of the previous physios had looked at me holistically! A couple of months on and I am feeling so much better. Still doing my exercises regularly and seeing Laura every three or four weeks for one of her fantastic back massages and for her to keep an eye on how I’m doing! My husband is now going to Laura for a long standing back pain and we can’t recommend her highly enough to all our friends.”
