How it all began......
“I discovered Aromatherapy when I was about 18, during a particularly traumatic time in my life, and I found it helped to calm me, when mixing oils like Lavender and Clary Sage and Rose (which I would buy from the lovely herbal store - Culpeper Shop (sadly no longer trading).
I started devouring Aromatherapy books and when I had read everything I could find, I decided I wanted to study to become a Clinical Aromatherapist.
Despite my parents insistence that I stay in my “proper job”, I got a loan to pay for the first year and it was the best decision I ever made. I studied in a Natural Medicine College and loved every minute of it.”
“I am still continuously expanding my knowledge and experience of aromatherapy, skincare and spa treatments plus in depth knowledge on skin conditions and holistic wellbeing”
The first product
Fiona originally began making therapeutic aromatherapy blends for her clients to use at home to help naturally treat conditions such as eczema, IBS and arthritis.
Her clients kept asking for the soothing, anti-inflammatory “arthritis blend” that she made, to help soothe joint and muscle pain.
The aromatherapy blend for arthritis (now re-branded as Blue Chamomile Soothe Oil) started to become really popular and it was suggested to Fiona that she start selling it into shops.
That was the inception for creating her own range.
“I knew that if I could create a blend that was helping people with pain and swelling in their knuckles and knees, that I could create products to regenerate and revitalise the skin”
That original product, created for arthritis,, became the first product for Fiona’s original skincare brand, Pure Lochside. It was called Calm & Soothe Body & Bath Oil.
