The Silent Card
“Silence isn’t empty, it’s full of answers.”
Some clients enjoy a little chat. Others want complete silence. And sometimes you simply don’t have the energy to make conversation. That’s why we have Silent Cards at reception — pick one up, hand it to your therapist, and enjoy completely uninterrupted time for yourself.
No need to explain. No awkwardness. No offence taken. From the moment you step through our door, it’s all about you — not us.
Together
Couples, friends and family are treated side by side in the same room, then unwind together over herbal tea. Our Celebration Together package is made for it — and our Parent & Child Reconnect is now available all year round.

🎉 We’re celebrating ONE YEAR in Castle Street today! 🎉 We can’t believe it’s been a whole year already! A huge thank you to all our wonderful clients for your continued love and support. If you’re passing by today, please pop in and say hello — we’d love to see you!
“POR, PLEASE STICK TO MASSAGES! 🤣” Tomorrow marks one whole year in our new home. To celebrate, we decided to interview some of our amazing clients… then Por decided to help! Thankfully, I jumped in to save the interviews. All jokes aside, hearing such lovely words from our clients means the world to us. — Dave (Little Buddha admin)
💚 First visits, beautiful celebrations and happy memories! Mary & Eryn visited us for the very first time to enjoy our Celebration Together experience — marking a new career and a first marathon. Lucy and her two friends were visiting the Isle of Wight and treated themselves to a full-body hot stone massage. Whether you’re celebrating something special, visiting the island or simply treating yourself, there’s always a reason to make time for a little luxury.
💚 Family Reconnect — a double family birthday at Little Buddha Retreat! Dad Matt arranged a treat for the whole family to enjoy some relaxation time together. Emily and Albert first visited us in August for our Parent & Child Reconnect experience, and it was lovely to welcome them back, this time with everyone. We absolutely love seeing families making special memories together.
Please don’t wait until you’re in pain! If you can already feel your body getting tight, stiff or uncomfortable, please don’t wait until it becomes unbearable before booking your massage. A little maintenance at the right time can be much easier than desperately trying to find an appointment once your body is screaming at you. Book ahead — look after your body before it forces you to.
Book your retreat
Advance booking is essential — we're often fully booked a week ahead. Call, message or send a booking request and we'll find you a time.
