Shine – Newington Green

London

I have found working with Mattea very helpful. She does very intuitive and insightful bodywork and has years of experience to draw on. The combination of massage to scar tissue and craniosacral work to longstanding chronic trauma damage has been really good and I feel much more positive and more my old ‘can do’ self as a result. Thank you Mattea!

I have found working with Mattea very helpful. She does very intuitive and insightful bodywork and has years of experience and a combination of skills to draw on. I had a bespoke treatment which included both massage to scar tissue and some very skilful craniosacral work to chronic areas of trauma which has been very effective both to the areas of pain and tightness, but also positive in terms of my sense of wellbeing. I feel more vital, possibly as I have less pain and stiffness, and more my old ‘can do’ self as a result of my treatments. Thank you Mattea!

I cannot recommend Shine on the Green and my stylist enough. I received a very warm welcome, the salon is well run and very clean and well equipped. My stylist was amazing and I have not said that about a stylist for a very long time. Benedetta is friendly, she listened very carefully to what I wanted/asked for. She also gave me great advice and guidance as it was my first time in getting my hair colour changed. I\'m really happy with both the colour and cut she provided. She\'s also an adorable person, very very sweet. I wish Benedetta and Shine on the Green continued success. See you soon.

Davina has been fantastic! In awe with my new look transformation (color and haircut), so stylish and timeless!! Highly recommended.

I had an hour long upper body massage and reiki session with Beth which was an absolute treat, combining deep relaxation with an insightful therapeutic experience. it was my first session with Beth and she attentively asked me if there was anything I needed to tell her beforehand, ensuring that she tailored the therapy to my personal needs. The ambience in the room was beautifully safe and soothing with low lighting, heated bed to lie on and soft music. Beth was careful to check with me what suited me and I was struck by her consideration throughout. The session started with a deep massage that felt stimulating and got my energy flowing nicely. Beth\'s touch was firm and confident but gentle too. Then she switched to reiki which was unfamiliar to me. It\'s a very delicate treatment requiring deep concentration and sensitivity. I drifted off during this light touch experience in a special zone - a meditative state. Beth was very generous with her time and gave me excellent feedback after the therapy. She showed real sensitivity and awareness and also gave helpful advice going forward. She showed exceptional insight into my personal situation and I was moved by the whole experience which touched me deeply. It felt very special.

Had a lovely haircut from Davina ✨ really pleased with the result, friendliest of services and great tips and suggestions

Had a cut from Carla - 1st time. I was v happy with the cut and with the whole thing as Carla really listened to what I had to say as well as offering sound advice - will definitely return ,

Lovely cut and colour with Sonia and Ernesto, thank you!

My consultation with Dr. Martinez was both thorough and efficient. Facing a rare skin issue, I received an initial opinion on what it could be, with the reassurance that it would also be discussed with his colleagues to gather a wider perspective—something I truly appreciated. A few days later, I received a detailed consultation report confirming the initial diagnosis, along with a couple of suggested treatment approaches. I am now following a course of treatment, but if it proves unsuccessful, I have also been provided with a letter for my GP should I decide to proceed with a biopsy.

I would highly recommend Dr. Martinez for anyone seeking a comprehensive and efficient consultation.

Beth is truly gifted. She knows how to tune in and help you heal your energy body. Not only that, but she will also take the time to explain where the blockages are and what to do to help your body continue healing after the session. It is a pleasure working with her, and I will continue to visit her for reiki and massages. Her techniques are exceptional.

I couldn\\\'t recommend Mattea enough, she has helped me improve my chronic pain and nausea caused by a medical issue. Her approach is flexible and considered catering both to your long term needs as well as how you are feeling on the day.

Benedetta is the best hairdresser I\'ve ever had, and I\'m not young!

I came across Mattea as I have long covid and had heard that craniosacral therapy can be helpful. I had never tried it before and was unsure what to expect. I have found my sessions with Mattea to be absolutely incredible and each time I feel restored and like my body has been re-set. I also feel utterly relaxed and at peace in a way I have never felt before. Mattea is warm and kind and very knowledgeable; I have learned so much from her. She is amazing at what she does and really tailors each session according to your specific needs on that day. She really is magical and I can\'t recommend her enough.

I was on holiday and needed a haircut at fairly short notice. I called “ Shine on the Green”, and after a brief but detailed explanation of the options of stylists , I was booked in with Marius, a senior stylist. I had to unexpectedly change the appointment time on the day and this was accommodated with understanding. I found Marius to be a strongly client centred , skilled and meticulous stylist. I have fine hair that can look great when styled by a professional but needs to be cut well for it to maintain the style, especially when managed at home. Marius absolutely got this and went out of his way to meet my brief. Pity I live the other side of the world in terms of my next haircut - Well done Marius and the team!

Renata was lovely and very gentle. Excellent service provided

Amazing hair cut by Davina on Church street. I am very happy with the end result, exactly what I asked for and amazing service! Thank you so much!

I\'ve been through several months of acupuncture with Marian Fixler, supporting my IVF treatment. Acupuncture was very effective, and deeply physically and psychologically relaxing. Along the way the treatments have also improved other issues I\'ve suffered from - back pain, endometriosis and poor digestion. The effects are dramatic. Marian is very calm and professional, you can tell she is very experienced. She was also very well informed about the IVF process and pregnancy, so it was so helpful to have a caring and knowledgeable space to discuss this outside the hospital system. I will be coming back, and am recommending to everyone.

I\'ve been to so many spots around London & no one does my hair as well as Alice in Newington Green! Perfect colour and blow-dry every time. 10/10

Fabiana listened to my concerns and was very knowledgeable about different supplements and foods that will help me with my menopause sleeplessness and associated symptoms. She was also very understanding about my particular circumstances and tailored her advice to my needs. I would certainly contact her again for more nutritional advice.
