About

Natural Xcellence: Holistic Facials & Massage is a wellness centered practice founded on advanced professional training, international experience and a deep commitment to the whole-body health. Every treatment is designed with intention-support the skin, calm the nervous system and encourage the body's natural ability to heal and restore balance.

My journey in the skincare industry began in England,UK where I received world-class training and developed a strong foundation in professional skincare. From there, my career took me overseas and abroad cruise ships, working with a diverse global clientele and addressing a wide range of skin conditions and stress-related concerns, and lifestyle influences.

I later served as an instructor for Dermalogica at The International Dermal Institute, where I educated skincare professionals in advanced skin science, professional treatment protocols and product knowledge. This experience sharpened my ability to analyze skin at a deeper level and reinforced the importance of combining science-based skincare with a holistic approach.

Beyond professional experience, my work is deeply personal. As a cancer survivor, I developed a heightened awareness of how inter-connected our skin, body and overall health truly are. This journey strengthened my belief that what we put on our skin matters. The skin is a living, absorbing organ and many ingredients applied topically can be absorbed into the body. For this reason, I am highly selective about the products I use in treatments and those I recommend to clients, prioritizing safety, integrity and long-term skin health.

A central focus of my work is supporting the parasympathetic nervous system, the body's natural "rest, repair and heal" state. When the nervous system is constantly in fight -or -flight mode due to stress, the body prioritizes survival over repair - often showing up as inflammation, premature aging, acne and sensitivity.

Every treatment at Natural Xcellence is fully customisable , blending advanced skincare expertise, holistic practices, nervous system regulation and carefully chosen products. The focus is not on quick fixes, but on creating sustainable results that support long-term health, deep relaxation and overall well-being.

Natural Xcellence is where experience, intention and healing come together- honouring the body, respecting the skin and supporting wellness at every level.
