Sarah Butler Therapies
Hello I’m Sarah of Sarah Butler Therapies, a professional complementary therapy and wellness service for women. I offer treatments to help you relax and recharge, but also to support your health and well-being, depending on your requirements.
Treatments take place at my tranquil treatment room at Little Stone, Frithelstockstone (5 miles from Bideford, 3 miles from Torrington, 10 miles from Barnstaple).
I offer the following treatments:
A bit about me
As a Complementary Therapist I take great pride in the quality of my services and have a calm and friendly manner (I’m told!). I always take care to put you at ease, whatever the treatment/s you are receiving, fully explaining the procedure and ensuring that you are comfortable and relaxed.
I started my business in November 2015. Originally it was called Back to Beauty, but I changed the name to Sarah Butler Therapies in April 2020 to reflect the services I offered.
I was very lucky shortly after starting my business to gain employment as a Spa Therapist at Harland House Spa in February 2016. I worked there on a self employed basis for 2.5 years (until its closure) whilst building up my own business.
Again, in early 2016 I was fortunate to begin volunteering at North Devon Hospice’s Wellbeing Days at Holsworthy. Both these roles helped me establish myself and my new role and I thoroughly enjoyed my time.
I voluntered at the Hospice for 5 years and also for a year at The Fern Centre (North Devon Hospital’s Cancer & Wellbeing Service). It was important to me to give something back to the community. I hope one day to return to the Hospice.
Prior to being a therapist I spent most of my working life in administration; including 10 years at a local legal practice as a PA and then Practice Manager, and the last 10 years as an Administration Lead with the NHS. Wanting a complete change, I applied for voluntary redundancy and retrained, first as a Beautician, and then Massage Therapist. Training in Complementary Therapies (my passion) extended my knowledge further.
I absolutely love the industry and am extremely proud of all I offer.
I am fully trained with Vocational Training Charitable Trust (VTCT) Levels 2 & 3 and City & Guilds (C&G) Level 3. I am also fully insured with Holistic Gold.
