👂✨ MODELS NEEDED – EAR CANDLING CPD WORKSHOP THIS SUNDAY ✨👂

We’re looking for a few lovely volunteers to act as models for our Ear Candling CPD Workshop this Sunday at The Full Spectrum Centre in Dukinfield.

Our learner will be carrying out treatments as part of their practical training, fully supervised by an experienced tutor.

🕦 11:30am – Model needed
🕑 2:00pm – Model needed
🕞 3:30pm – Model needed

Please allow up to one hour for your appointment.

🌿 Who can volunteer?

You should be generally well and have no contraindications that would prevent ear candling treatment.

Please do not volunteer if you currently have any of the following:

• An active ear infection or inflammation
• A perforated or suspected perforated eardrum
• Grommets or ventilation tubes currently in place
• Recent ear surgery, unless you have been medically cleared for treatment
• Active discharge, bleeding or unexplained fluid coming from the ear
• Significant ear pain where the cause has not been established
• An acute skin infection, open wound or significant irritation around the ear
• A known allergy or sensitivity to any of the materials used in the ear candles

We’ll complete a consultation and check your suitability before treatment, so please let us know about any ear conditions, previous ear surgery or other relevant medical concerns when you contact us.

💗 There is no charge for the treatment.

We simply ask that you can commit to your appointment time, as our learner will be relying on you for their practical training.

If you’d like to volunteer, please comment below or send us a private message, letting us know whether you can attend at 11:30am, 2pm or 3:30pm.

Thank you for supporting our learners as they develop their practical skills and confidence. 🌿✨

I can’t wait for this! 💫🔔

I’m heading to Manchester’s Biggest Sound Bath at the beautiful Manchester Cathedral on Bank Holiday Monday, 31st August, and it feels like such a gorgeous way to round off my holiday. ✨

There’s something quite magical about experiencing sound in a space like Manchester Cathedral, and I’m really looking forward to simply switching off, soaking up the vibrations and enjoying the experience. 🥰

Does anyone fancy joining me? 💛

It would be lovely to get a little group of us together and make an evening of it.

Here’s the event if you’d like to have a look or grab a ticket:

Who’s coming with me? 🙋‍♀️✨🔔

Relax and unwind with a 90-minute sound bath of crystal bowls, handpans and much more in the stunning back drop of Manchester Cathedral.

🌿 YOU CAN BE RESTING… AND STILL NOT FEEL RESTED

Have you ever had one of those Sundays where you’ve technically done very little… but somehow you still feel exhausted?

You’ve sat down.
You’ve watched TV.
Maybe you’ve had a lie-in.

Yet your shoulders are still tense, your mind is still busy and you don’t really feel as though you’ve switched off.

Sometimes, what we need isn’t simply more rest.

We need to feel settled.

When we’ve spent days juggling work, family, responsibilities, deadlines, decisions and everything else life throws at us, it can be difficult to suddenly go from doing to being.

The body might have stopped…

…but the mind is still making lists.

Your jaw is still clenched.

Your shoulders are somewhere around your ears.

And you’re already thinking about Monday morning. 🙈

This is one of the reasons I’m such a big believer in creating intentional moments of calm.

Massage, reflexology, Reiki, sound therapy, meditation, time outdoors, gentle movement, breathing practices… there are many different ways we can give ourselves permission to slow down and reconnect.

And it doesn’t have to mean spending an entire day doing absolutely nothing.

Sometimes it’s simply recognising:

“I’ve been running on full speed for a while. I need some space to come back to myself.”

So, a little Sunday reminder from me…

You don’t have to earn your rest.

And perhaps instead of asking yourself:

“What do I need to get done today?”

try asking:

💜 “What would help me feel a little more settled before the new week begins?”

I’d love to know your answer. 👇

🩷 SMALL BUSINESS SATURDAY 🩷

There’s something rather special about supporting a small business.

Behind every appointment, every message, every social media post, every course and every little detail you see is a real person who genuinely cares about the work they do.

For me, The Full Spectrum Centre Limited has never simply been about offering treatments.

For over 20 years, it has grown into a place where people come to rest, reset, learn, develop and sometimes completely change direction in their lives.

✨ Clients come through the door needing time away from busy lives, stress and overwhelm.

✨ Learners arrive ready to begin a new career or add another skill to an existing one.

✨ People join our meditations and community because they simply need somewhere to slow down and reconnect.

And I still get to be part of all of it.

I’m the person answering your messages, preparing the treatment room, welcoming you through the door, delivering your treatments, teaching our learners, planning our courses and wondering what we can create next. 💜

Today, The Full Spectrum Centre is an award-winning holistic wellbeing and vocational training centre, offering professional complementary therapies alongside OFQUAL-regulated VTCT qualifications.

But underneath the awards, qualifications and business growth, the heart of it remains exactly the same:

Helping people feel better, learn something new and move forward.

So on Small Business Saturday, I’d simply like to say thank you.

To everyone who has booked an appointment, trained with us, attended a sound bath or meditation, left a review, bought a gift voucher, recommended us, shared a post or simply told somebody about us…

You’ve supported a small local business, and it means more than you probably realise. 🩷

And because today is about celebrating small businesses…

👇 Tell me about YOUR business in the comments and what makes you unique.

Let’s discover and support some more brilliant small businesses together. ✨

💜 Well, I wasn’t expecting this…

Alongside this morning’s wonderful news that The Full Spectrum Centre has officially been announced as an award winner, I’ve also discovered that my lovely friend Toni has nominated me personally for the Womanifest 2027 Wellness Advocate Award.

I genuinely had no idea she had done it.

But it was what she wrote about why she nominated me that really stopped me in my tracks. 🥹

Toni wrote:

“Joanne always puts her clients first, that’s why she is always fully booked. She rarely takes time for herself and I don’t think she realises quite how impactful her work is. She also trains other therapists and her training centre is VTCT approved. Her knowledge is second to none and she will do anything for anyone. She deserves a bit of recognition.”

When you spend your days seeing clients, supporting learners and graduates, teaching, planning, answering questions and generally getting on with running a busy Centre, you don’t necessarily stop to think about how other people see the work you do.

So this was so lovely to read.

Toni, thank you. 💜

Whether anything comes of the nomination or not, being thought of and nominated by someone who knows me and my work so well means a great deal.

And apparently 2026 has decided I need to get a little more comfortable with receiving recognition. 😂

✨ Womanifest 2027 — Wellness Advocate nominee.

Still feels strange saying it!

🏆 A lovely bit of news to share this morning…

It’s now official — The Full Spectrum Centre Limited has been announced as the winner of Best Holistic Wellbeing & Trauma-Informed Therapy Centre 2026 – North West England, in the Corporate Vision Education and Training Awards 2026. 💜

It was wonderful to receive the news a little while ago, but seeing our name published on the official winners list this morning has made it feel that little bit more special.

This particular award means a lot to me because it reflects the way the Centre has naturally evolved over the years, supporting wellbeing as a whole and creating a space where people can feel comfortable, listened to and supported.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who continues to support The Full Spectrum Centre, whether you visit for treatments, train with me, recommend the Centre to others, leave a lovely review or simply follow along here.

I never take that support for granted. 💜

A rather lovely way to start a Friday morning. 🏆✨
