Professionally, I have found Karen to be pleasant and polite with an enormous concern for her patient’s wellbeing and health. She is courteous and professional with everything she sets out to achieve and her patient’s comments reflect this opinion. I have no hesitation in recommending Karen.

I have seen Karen for massage on many occasions over the past couple of years and have greatly benefited from her extensive knowledge and expertise. A massage from Karen is a wonderfully relaxing experience but she also has the ability to concentrate on the areas of need.

Karen I’m writing to say many thanks for all the help and support you have given me over the years. Your care and professionalism have been greatly appreciated.
I am always amazed at the way you manage to pinpoint areas of tension or strain during a massage and the resulting wellbeing that follows a session.
During my time in teaching, high stress levels severely affected my neck and shoulders causing intense discomfort and painful headaches. Our regular sessions gave immense relief.
Now as a mountain guide it is vital that I maintain flexibility and fitness and I have felt the benefits to tired, tense muscles following your therapeutic massage.
I have no doubt that you have kept my show on the road on many occasions!

I have had treatments of all sorts over the last 30 years for my conditions of back pain, intense nervous stress and sometimes physical exhaustion. One of the most effective has been the massage therapy offered by Karen Squires. She works very hard with great effort and skill on strategic points in my back muscles.
I am therefore delighted to recommend Karen. I have been treated by her for several years and not only have I considered her very competent, committed and hard-working but also very pleasant and sympathetic.
Professor Thomas Walde |
My osteopath recommended Karen to me to help with severe back and muscle pain coming from a longstanding, recurring back and shoulder injury.
I have been having monthly massage treatments with Karen for the last 18 months. During this time I have seen a significant improvement in the range of motion in my shoulder and have also had a significant reduction in the recurrence of the injury. Most importantly for me, through the consistency of Karen’s massage and treatments, I have become virtually pain free for the first time in 13 years.
I cannot recommend Karen highly enough. Her approach is professional and friendly and I am very sorry to see her leave. I wish her all the best for her new life in Canada where I am sure she will continue to make a significant difference in the lives of her clients.

I have had the pleasure and privilege of having Karen as my therapist for the last two years. She is a dedicated and gifted therapist who has helped me tremendously with long-standing neck, shoulder and back problems. Karen has always shown great professionalism, combining this with interest and compassion for her clients. I have had treatments from a number of therapists throughout the United Kingdom and can certainly say that Karen is amongst the very best of them. She will be greatly missed here in Scotland for her abilities, her friendliness and not least for her positive spirit.
Julie Kerr |
I have had a monthly aromatherapy massage as well as the occasional hot stone treatment from Karen for over three years and cannot recommend her highly enough. She combines a very professional manner with genuine interest and friendly concern. She starts each session with a brief medical history update and tailors the treatment to any ongoing problems. I leave each treatment feeling relaxed and that I’ve benefited both mentally and physically from it.
I will miss Karen very much and am sure she will soon attract as strong a following of clients in Canada as she has had here.
Fiona Oviatt |
I have now known Karen for several years and have attended her clinics for regular massage therapy treatments. I myself am 76 years of age and suffer from arthritis, and have greatly benefited from my massage. I have found Karen to be very efficient and professional in her job, but she also has a very friendly and caring nature. I highly recommend Karen.
Mr Forbes W. Logie |
Karen was first recommended to me about 3 years ago by my osteopath who thought, rightly, that I would greatly benefit from regular deep-tissue massages to treat back pain, muscle spasms and headaches.
I have since seen Karen on a fortnightly basis and can vouch for her dedication and professionalism. She is methodical in her approach, will concentrate on area problems and keeps a diary of your progress. I will greatly miss her thorough but gentle touch.
What I shall also greatly miss is her gift as a caring listener and the atmosphere she creates of utter relaxation. Her manner is very respectful as well as soothing, and the choice is yours to enjoy your session conversing happily or in complete and blissful silence.
I thoroughly recommend Karen’s massages. They leave you feeling refreshed, relaxed and with a holistic sense of wellbeing.
Annie Ferguson |
I have known Karen as my therapeutic therapist for two years, having visited her for monthly treatments. I am very happy to recommend her services to any of her new patients in Canada. Her quiet and sympathetic demeanour immediately establishes confidence in her professional abilities and each treatment is performed with skill, efficiency and attention to each individual requirement in a gentle atmosphere which encourages relaxation. She will be missed by her patients in St. Andrews.
Dr. Angela Montford |
I have been a client of Karen’s for over 4 years and have had monthly treatments during this period varying from therapeutic massage and aromatherapy to hot stone treatment. Karen has a wonderful calming persona. She is an excellent therapist and is continually expanding her knowledge and experience by attending various courses and seminars.
Karen has a very caring nature which endears her to her chosen career. I am sorry to lose her skills and have no hesitation in recommending her to any would-be client.
Caroline Moore |
Karen I will miss your wonderful massage treatments of the last few years. The treatments have made a huge difference to my overall sense of wellbeing whilst working within a relatively stressful environment. Your treatment has also aided with my many self inflicted sports injuries and whilst the message of listening to my own body may not have got there yet, your treatment has always got me back on my feet!
John Tavendale |
Karen was recommended to me over two years ago by an osteopath who felt massage would benefit my shoulder problems. I have been returning regularly every month since then for a deep aromatherapy massage and have no doubt that it has helped me tremendously. Being quite a shy person I initially found the thought of a massage very daunting but Karen soon put me at my ease. I think the number of times I’ve been back speaks for itself!
Carol Stewart |
Karen thank you for all your wonderful care and attention. You have a gift of making people feel relaxed and as though they are the only ones you are thinking of. Thank you for all you have done to keep me in trim and I’m pleased to say you have done wonders for my shoulder and helped me greatly.
