OUR STORY.
Ella began her journey into the wellness industry by training at Stamford College straight after graduating from school. Ella then went on to experience the spa industry with her new found love for massage and holistic therapies, but knew that this environment wasn’t for her and decided to build a career in the hospitality industry for several years, and so the dream of having a business that she could make her own took a backseat for a while.
A Touch of Tranquility’s journey began as a side hobby for Ella shortly after having her little boy and realising that self-care, time to switch off and still dedicating time to be ‘Ella’ as well as ‘Mum’ was more important now than ever before.
It very quickly developed into something much more due to the sheer determination and passion that Ella discovered whilst starting to treat clients and meet women sharing the same thoughts and mindset. However, COVID 19 had other plans and put a halt to everything.
This didn’t get in the way of ensuring that A Touch of Tranquility’s time wasn’t just temporary. If anything, the aftermath and effect of the virus only empowered Ella to make it her full time mission to promote, prioritise and normalise the importance of self care for others.
Ella used her time out of work during the pandemic to create a strong social media presence online, and shortly after the industry reopened in 2020, A Touch of Tranquility was reaching more people than Ella’s little room at home could accommodate.
It was at this point that Ella ventured out into a high street salon, renting a room and spreading more love around the north of Peterborough in Werrington. Whilst this opportunity helped Ella to grow the business and explore new avenues and experience much more than she could have ever imagined, it still wasn’t the environment she had in mind for her clients to receive the best care.
It was at that point in 2022 that A Touch of Tranquility opened it’s doors to a new home, a private garden sanctuary, dedicated to serving every client with all the energy they deserve, no distractions, complete privacy and peacefulness.
OUR ACHEIVEMENTS.
On Saturday the 7th of October 2023 at The Peterborough Small Business Awards A Touch of Tranquility received the ‘Highly Commended’ award for the ‘Customer Care’ category. Winning this award means a significant amount to myself as a business owner as the heart and drive of my business is to strive in making sure all clients feel cared for no matter what the circumstances may be in there lives at the time. I’m grateful that this was able to shine through to the judging panel when basing their decision on who should be recognised for their efforts to care for their customers wholeheartedly.
