Shirley Gibbins


After taking a 2 yr course as an Esthetician in the UK Shirley worked in spas in Sheffield and London for 9yrs. A love of travel then took her on a 2 yr break to work and explore Greece and Turkey. Back in Manchester she worked for all the top cosmetic houses in the city's major department stores. A chance meeting changed her career path and she became a Flight Attendant. For the next 17yrs her work took her all around the world. Her love of esthetics never left her and she was able to do this in her spare time as well as study for courses in Aromatherapy and Reflexology. In 2004 Shirley moved to Vancouver to be with her partner and now husband. She studied Reiki and took chair massage to enable her to adapt her table massage to a seated position. She continues to study to further her expertise and keep her challenged. Shirley runs a spa service for seniors, works for Saje, offers a mobile service and works with friends doing Chair Massage at Corporate and Wellness events.
