About Me

Welcome to Slow it Down Holistic Therapies, where relaxation, restoration, and balance take center stage. My name is Mel Adams, and I'm a Level 4-trained holistic massage therapist with a deep passion for healing, well- being, and personalized care.

 

My journey began in beauty therapy, where my love for skincare led me to train with some of the world's most prestigious brands, including Chanel, Shiseido, Decléor, and Crème de la Mer. Working in London's luxury skincare industry gave me invaluable insight into nurturing the skin, body, and soul.

​
After moving back to Chichester, I spent time at Goodwood Hotel, further refining my craft with Elemis and Elemental Herbology. I deepened my knowledge through specialized training in pregnancy massage and cancer massage, reinforcing my commitment to providing safe, adaptive, and compassionate care for all. As a holistic massage therapist, I believe that every body is unique, which is why my treatments are tailored to suit your specific needs.
 
My expertise includes:
​
Deep tissue massage - to release tension and restore mobility
​​
Reiki energy healing - to encourage emotional and physical harmony
​​
Indian head massage (Level 3) - to relieve stress and enhance well-being
​​
Colour therapy - to align the body's energy and mood Holistic
​​
Sports massage (Level 3 & 4) - to promote recovery and relaxation
​
While I don't offer every treatment I've trained in, I intuitively adapt my approach to suit your needs, lifestyle, and goals. Whether you're seeking relief from stress, chronic pain, pregnancy discomfort, or simply need time to reconnect with yourself, my mission is to help you slow down, unwind, and feel truly restored.
​
If you're ready to experience a holistic approach to wellness, I'd love to welcome you to Slow it Down Holistic Therapies.
