The therapy centre opened its door in March this year on Commercial Street, Pontypool and aims to help with people’s mind and body.
Frances, a qualified therapist said: “To know you have made a positive difference to the quality of life for others is extremely rewarding.
“I feel very proud to have a growing client base with some travelling to me from Newport.
“It’s always been a passion and I’ve been driven and determined to have my own business especially expanding to take on a premises together through Covid and now with the economic crisis.
