Born in Ipswich, Kay trained at Suffolk College and qualified as a beauty Therapist in 1988. She went on to work for one of the country’s top Health Spa’s here in Suffolk for 5 years, gaining much experience in a spa style environment.

On leaving, she worked for 2 years at a local health and fitness centre helping to set up and run the beauty treatment section. Having experienced the managing of a small salon she decided it was time to branch out on her own and for the past 5 years she has been a successful therapist in the Ipswich and Hadleigh area.

Kay has since gained additional qualifications in aromatherapy and in developing her skills as a therapist she now brings 12 years experience to the heart of Ipswich in the form of her spa inspired salon “The Gentle Touch”.

This salon, with its Japanese influence, has been created with a holistic approach in mind. From a simple leg wax to an E’Spa Aromatherapy Total Body Care, “The Gentle Touch” is the salon to bring the luxury and relaxation of a Health Spa into what can sometimes be a very stressful life.
