The Facial Goddess by Donna Ryan

I had a gua sha and facial with Donna. With just one session, my back that was sore for the last couple of years and felt dead, was completely changed. All of the muscle pain was gone whenever I'd stand up from bed. Treat yourself to any of Donna's sessions; guarantee that it will be a great investment. And the facial was great too.

Such a relaxing and magical experience. I instantly felt calm and at ease. Donna gave me such great advice on my skin concerns and I walked out the door with glowing skin! I also bought a gua sha and cleanser which she recommended and have LOVED using them. Can’t wait to go again! Thank you xx

I have been to see Donna twice now. I discovered her on Instagram, followed and finally paid a visit for the first time a month ago. I had the Gua Sha fusion facial with Thai Poultice. It was truly amazing. It’s much more than a facial. I work at a computer most of the day, regularly do long hours and some times find myself hunching over; my job can be hectic (sound familiar?). I told Donna this and she started off by working on my back, moved on to my shoulders and then moved on to my face. 1hr and a half of bliss. My second visit, I had puffy eyes I asked Donna if she could tackle that and she did. You may book the same facial, but it will be tailored to your needs, so not the same. I have had many facials/massages over the years and this is one of the best, if not, the best I’ve had. Donna has a lovely way about her and made me feel totally at ease. I can highly recommend a visit, you will not be disappointed!

Donna’s facial’s are quite simply first class - her knowledge, her approach, and her technique. My skin is still radiant 4 days after my facial. The experience is a real treat not just for the skin but also for the soul. Donna is a wonderful therapist.

I had a face and body treatment with Donna, the best facial in Herts! she works the tension out of your back, neck, shoulders, face and jaw, especially good for TMJ. Highly recommend

One of the best facials I’ve ever had. Donna is an extremely pleasant person and was so gentle in her treatment. I would highly recommend the signature treatment with the buccal massage. Came out feeling refreshed and could see the difference in my face (less water rentention and puffiness). Will definitely be paying a visit again.

I had a wonderful experience with Donna. I had been experiencing pain in my neck and upper back after a period of illness. After Donna's treatment this eased significantly and an added bonus was the release of water retention, leaving my skin smoother and more even-toned. Donna was very gentle and careful with me during the treatment. Her workspace was a pleasure to visit. I felt well looked after and would not hesitate to visit again. Thank you Donna!

Donna is the only facialist I visit as she’s by far the best in her field. She’s extremely knowledgeable and gives the most amazing treatments. My skin always looks incredible afterwards and I feel deeply relaxed. She works all the areas of tension from my face and body with massage, Gua sha and reflexology. She only uses the best natural products and always gives me loads of aftercare advice. Highly recommend a treatment with her!

Donna ticks every box when it comes to being a Facialist. I naturally have dull skin, I left with brighten toned skin and also plump from the best massage. Thankyou ❤️

Donna’s facials get amazing reviews because she is a fountain of holistic knowledge! I have had facials and gua sha treatments with her many times and always crave the skin results and the relaxation and body relief that comes from a session with her. Highly recommend!

I have the best experience doing the Gua Sha treatment by Donna. I went on a Saturday morning. Although feeling under the weather at first due to my pregnancy, after some hesitation, I decided to keep my appointment and went. One of the best decisions I ever made. Donna is so caring, and her hands have the best touch and I felt so much better after the treatment. My skin turned better, and the materials she used was so good to smell that my whole person felt so much better afterwards!

My experiential key words for Donna’s Gua Sha treatment: Rejuvenating, Relaxing, DecompressingFull review: I have quite a stressful job, and work from home, off a laptop. Weekends are mostly DJing (leaning over decks and generally standing up in stressful noisy places, playing hard techno). Therefore, it’s safe to say I have a lot of stored up tension, stress, and even anxiety, along with the daily stresses of life ☺Donna’s treatment focused on the upper half of my body with a focus on the facial aspects. It’s called Gua Sha (she explains it better than I ever can on her website ☺). It lasted about 90 mins and it was absolutely wonderful. I came away feeling therapised, cared for, and even listened to (Donna seems to be able to elicit conversations that help to relax me, while doing the treatment). So this is the triumvirate of healing as I see it.I’m a bit picky about therapists splashing any old oil and spritzer and chemicals, and so, Donna patiently explained the provenance of all what she uses and used. For instance, she used only organic skin care by Eminence (they have replanted 20 million trees since being in business), crystal (not synthetic) Gua Sha tools, and applied a mask made of jade crystals (for the eyes), all in order to release tension, stagnant energy, and release some of the pent up energy. There was also the spritzer made from the exquisite Hierba Luisa (Lemon Verbena), which has powerful anti-oxidant properties, and helps to relax and rejuvenate the skin.She also used low-level LED lights to boost collagen production, and finished off with the Tibetan bowls for clearing chakras.Now, as a self-proclaimed rational scientist, all this was something I used to turn my nose up at. But in the past 5 years, having followed a more Buddhist/spiritual path, I see so many benefits in leveraging the habits, customs, and techniques from the far East, thus allowing us stressed Westerners to gain some benefits from that. So for that alone, I thank Donna whole-heartedly. However, the biggest gratitude goes to Donna for singlehandedly bringing something so wholesome and sacred to Rickmansworth (she also has a clinic in Covent Garden), and for me, this is noble and honourable, and the least we can do is to support her, so that she can keep supporting us all.Peace and love to you all out there

My experience of a facial with Donna was so unique and like nothing else I've ever experienced before. Such a treat!Deeply relaxing and diverse in terms of textures, temperatures, product aromas and sensational massage techniques. Left glowing inside and out. Will be scheduling regular facials going forwards. Just fantasticThankyou 🙏

I had the most wonderful relaxing facial experience with Donna. She works with the most beautiful stones and I could feel them penetrating deeply into my skin and beyond. I left feeling totally cared for, nurtured inside and out and my skin is still feeling and looking amazing. Thank you Donna, I will be returning.

Claire Gal

Donna does the best facials in central London. Her holistic approach means that every facial is different and adapted to my skin issues at the time. The use of gua shas, rollers and amazing products (plus a calming playlist) make this experience all the more enjoyable. And the glow you come out with is unreal and lasts for days (and I’m a sleep deprived mom so you can trust my words!!). I’ve recommended Donna to all my friends ! Go and enjoy - you won’t regret it !

Melissa Anderson

I had the best coaching call with Donna. I instantly felt comfortable speaking to her. She has this warmth that makes you relax and open up. It felt really easy talking to her and not rushed at all. I have come away from the call feeling like anything is possible and really excited to take the next steps needed to get my business going. Donna helped me to see ways to make it all possible. An amazing help. If you’re thinking about having a coaching call with her then stop thinking, don’t wait, just get one booked in!! You won’t regret it!

Sue Rowley

13:15 14 Jan 22

I had a wonderful tutorial from Donna this week. She taught me how to use the tools correctly, from cleansing the skin to using the correct amount of oil on your face before you start. We used many truly beautiful tools, and I learnt the tricks of each one! It was absolutely well worth doing, I feel 100% confident on my Gua Sha journey. A brilliant kind teacher, thank you 🙏

Haley Towery

22:22 07 Jan 22

I never write reviews but this was seriously the best facial I've ever had. If I lived in London, I would book facials all the time. I also usually dont really like facials but this was incredible. would recommend 10/10!!!

Valerie May

My favourite time each month is my facial with Donna. I was drawn to Donna as she uses natural products and traditional methods to improve the skin and face. It is such an amazing treatment and well worth the money. The gua sha stones really helps to lift the face and drain any excess fluid but for me it relaxes all the tight muscles I have in my jaw, neck and upper shoulders. I absolutely love the poultice, which Donna handmakes, its heated and feels wonderful to calm the skin. My face always looks so glowing & fresh afterwards and I don't even need to wear make-up. I normally float out of the room I am so chilled out! Also Donna is such a kind and beautiful person, who I love spending time with. Thank you xxxxx

Had the 90 minute signature facial. It was absolutely divine. So relaxing, each product used smelt better than the previous, and I felt like I came out glowing! Donna is a lovely therapist 😊

I have been for many facials over the years but I can honestly say Donna's facial was one of the best. She created a warm ambiance and made me feel relaxed and comfortable from the start. The quality of her products, holistic approach and knowledge imparted took my usual facial to the next level. I was literally floating for hours post facial. I will be back and plan to purchase some of the divine products.

Wow wow wow! What an incredible experience. Donna is amazing. I have had two facials with her and have completely zoned out both times - the ambience she creates is so relaxing and the products she uses are superb. Thank you Donna - I will be back - I FEEL FANTASTIC!!

Having a facial with Donna is not just a facial. It is a full body, mind and soul relaxation. Donna has hands of an angel! The room has a peaceful feel to it and all the products Donna uses are natural which I love. My skin always glows for days after my facial treatments. Donna has a wealth of knowledge with different modalities , my favourite is the gua sha fusion. She has a warm, soothing presence and she has given me loads of advice for my skin. I count the days in between my Gua Sha fusion massage!

My facial with Donna was first class, her home treatment room is clean and comfortable. I’ve had many facials in the past few years from different beauticians using different methods but I found Donna’s practice to be best by far. Donna was forthcoming with her knowledge with a list of tips for me post treatment and I was also able to buy a few of the Crystal tools that she uses in her treatments which I found very useful. I very much look forward to my my next visit with Donna.

Sylvia Sylvie

AT LAST A TOP HOLISTIC FACIALIST IN HERTS!! I am delighted that Donna is doing her amazing facials in Rickmansworth. I used to go into London once a month for a treatment with Donna but obviously with Covid that stopped me getting my monthly fix. This is not a "normal" beauty facial, this is an energetic healing, a meditation and beauty treatment in one. You won't experience anything like this elsewhere. Worth every penny, I recommend the full 90 minutes.

I recently had a virtual 1-2-1 with Donna at the start of my journey with gua sha. I was able to talk through my areas of concern, and Donna gave me great advice as we practised the techniques together to ensure I was doing it right. Donna was lovely and really helpful. Much appreciated.

I’ve been having facials with Donna for around 5 years and I can say, hand on heart, that this woman has magic hands. You will notice a massive difference in your face the morning after, I always look really bright and my skin looks really plump! She is highly qualified in many different techniques, my favourite being gua sha. Her treatments are so relaxing that you always feel your whole body completely unwind. It’s not just a facial.Also, she only uses completely natural ingredients, so for those people like myself who want to avoid synthetic products on the face, she is your go to.HIGHLY recommend. I haven’t been anywhere else since meeting her in 2016.

I recently undertook a consultation with Donna via Zoom. Throughout our session Donna clearly demonstrated how to do a gua sha facial. Step by step Donna talked me through the process and was very patient with all the questions I asked through the consultation. Her knowledge and understanding of this practice along with the practical tips she gave me to take care of my skin daily were exceptional. Thanks again Donna for you time

TestimonialFrom the first moment of stepping into Donna's practice I felt such a warm welcome. The soft ambient tones playing in the background, the beautiful smells and the cosy space made it feel like a little oasis.After being encouraged to lay for the 'treatment proccess', the tone was set with an intricate cleansing routine, followed by face steaming,opening and purging of the facial pours.Her slow meditative strokes gradually sent me into a deep state of blissfulness only to be furthered with her use of the gua-sha on my face and neck. Time melted away as my body lost all sense of physical weight. Her caring, healing and masterful touch was my guide in and out of consciousness.A quick peep in the mirror rewarded me with a fresh and glowing look by shaving off a good five years. Thumbs up Donna, can't wait for my next one;-)

I had the most amazing facial with Donna. I have never felt so tranquil in a facial before, she released so much tension in my face I could barely speak afterwards I was so relaxed.She combines the most amazing techniques, including gua sha, jade roller, sound and vibration healing, smudging and very advanced facial massage. She also uses beautiful, natural skincare. You can see the results instantly after the facial. My fine lines had reduced, my skin looked glowing and plump. I felt like I had received a healing treatment as well as a facial.She is the best facialist I have been to, I highly recommend her.

Donna is a knowledgeable and very relaxing therapist. I had a wonderful facial that relieved all tension and instantly left my skin feeling softer, smoother and rejuvenated. Every product she uses is natural and leaves you skin glowing days after. I would highly recommend using Donna for a facial.

The best facial I have ever had in my life! So happy to have found Donna. Her facials are truly an experience. The amount of effort she puts into the facial is amazing. She uses beautiful natural products! I feel so relaxed and my skin is glowing! She has so much wisdom too and has inspired me to look after myself more! Cant wait for the next appointment.

I saw Donna for a combined session: facial, and sound healing. The Man Facial was deeply relaxing, and I felt that I was in good hands. Donna only uses natural products, so that's a bonus. She looked after my skin and gave a much-needed light massage through the face and jaw. Blissful.Throughout the facial, Donna played soothing music and healing tones, which then became the backdrop for the sound healing. Donna expertly navigated the energetic space, sensing into my energy and adapting her actions appropriately. I felt as though I was being nurtured, gently guided to where I needed to go for the good of my body, mind, and soul.Donna Ryan *IS* the Facial Goddess - and also so much more. Don't hesitate to book in straight away, it's the best decision you'll make today.

Donna provides a wonderfully relaxing and healing facial. My skin felt amazing afterwards and I loved the fact that everything she used on my skin was natural and chemical free. I also loved how she used crystals, reiki and massage techniques during the facial as they made it all a very unique facial experience. Donna has a natural healing touch and I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a facial.

Not only for my skin but also my well being. I'd highly recommend at least one a month to continue feeling like a Goddess and having glowing, healthy skin.I also love that all of the products used are natural & Donnas healing touch

My experience of a facial with Donna was so unique and like nothing else I've ever experienced before. Such a treat!Deeply relaxing and diverse in terms of textures, temperatures, product aromas and sensational massage techniques. Left glowing inside and out. Will be scheduling regular facials going forwards. Just fantasticThankyou 🙏

I had the most wonderful relaxing facial experience with Donna. She works with the most beautiful stones and I could feel them penetrating deeply into my skin and beyond. I left feeling totally cared for, nurtured inside and out and my skin is still feeling and looking amazing. Thank you Donna, I will be returning.

Donna does the best facials in central London. Her holistic approach means that every facial is different and adapted to my skin issues at the time. The use of gua shas, rollers and amazing products (plus a calming playlist) make this experience all the more enjoyable. And the glow you come out with is unreal and lasts for days (and I’m a sleep deprived mom so you can trust my words!!). I’ve recommended Donna to all my friends ! Go and enjoy - you won’t regret it !

I had the best coaching call with Donna. I instantly felt comfortable speaking to her. She has this warmth that makes you relax and open up. It felt really easy talking to her and not rushed at all. I have come away from the call feeling like anything is possible and really excited to take the next steps needed to get my business going. Donna helped me to see ways to make it all possible. An amazing help. If you’re thinking about having a coaching call with her then stop thinking, don’t wait, just get one booked in!! You won’t regret it!

I had a wonderful tutorial from Donna this week. She taught me how to use the tools correctly, from cleansing the skin to using the correct amount of oil on your face before you start. We used many truly beautiful tools, and I learnt the tricks of each one! It was absolutely well worth doing, I feel 100% confident on my Gua Sha journey. A brilliant kind teacher, thank you 🙏

I never write reviews but this was seriously the best facial I've ever had. If I lived in London, I would book facials all the time. I also usually dont really like facials but this was incredible. would recommend 10/10!!!

My favourite time each month is my facial with Donna. I was drawn to Donna as she uses natural products and traditional methods to improve the skin and face. It is such an amazing treatment and well worth the money. The gua sha stones really helps to lift the face and drain any excess fluid but for me it relaxes all the tight muscles I have in my jaw, neck and upper shoulders. I absolutely love the poultice, which Donna handmakes, its heated and feels wonderful to calm the skin. My face always looks so glowing & fresh afterwards and I don't even need to wear make-up. I normally float out of the room I am so chilled out! Also Donna is such a kind and beautiful person, who I love spending time with. Thank you xxxxx

Had the 90 minute signature facial. It was absolutely divine. So relaxing, each product used smelt better than the previous, and I felt like I came out glowing! Donna is a lovely therapist 😊

I have been for many facials over the years but I can honestly say Donna's facial was one of the best. She created a warm ambiance and made me feel relaxed and comfortable from the start. The quality of her products, holistic approach and knowledge imparted took my usual facial to the next level. I was literally floating for hours post facial. I will be back and plan to purchase some of the divine products.

Wow wow wow! What an incredible experience. Donna is amazing. I have had two facials with her and have completely zoned out both times - the ambience she creates is so relaxing and the products she uses are superb. Thank you Donna - I will be back - I FEEL FANTASTIC!!

Having a facial with Donna is not just a facial. It is a full body, mind and soul relaxation. Donna has hands of an angel! The room has a peaceful feel to it and all the products Donna uses are natural which I love. My skin always glows for days after my facial treatments. Donna has a wealth of knowledge with different modalities , my favourite is the gua sha fusion. She has a warm, soothing presence and she has given me loads of advice for my skin. I count the days in between my Gua Sha fusion massage!

My facial with Donna was first class, her home treatment room is clean and comfortable. I’ve had many facials in the past few years from different beauticians using different methods but I found Donna’s practice to be best by far. Donna was forthcoming with her knowledge with a list of tips for me post treatment and I was also able to buy a few of the Crystal tools that she uses in her treatments which I found very useful. I very much look forward to my my next visit with Donna.

AT LAST A TOP HOLISTIC FACIALIST IN HERTS!! I am delighted that Donna is doing her amazing facials in Rickmansworth. I used to go into London once a month for a treatment with Donna but obviously with Covid that stopped me getting my monthly fix. This is not a "normal" beauty facial, this is an energetic healing, a meditation and beauty treatment in one. You won't experience anything like this elsewhere. Worth every penny, I recommend the full 90 minutes.

I recently had a virtual 1-2-1 with Donna at the start of my journey with gua sha. I was able to talk through my areas of concern, and Donna gave me great advice as we practised the techniques together to ensure I was doing it right. Donna was lovely and really helpful. Much appreciated.

I’ve been having facials with Donna for around 5 years and I can say, hand on heart, that this woman has magic hands. You will notice a massive difference in your face the morning after, I always look really bright and my skin looks really plump! She is highly qualified in many different techniques, my favourite being gua sha. Her treatments are so relaxing that you always feel your whole body completely unwind. It’s not just a facial.Also, she only uses completely natural ingredients, so for those people like myself who want to avoid synthetic products on the face, she is your go to.HIGHLY recommend. I haven’t been anywhere else since meeting her in 2016.

I recently undertook a consultation with Donna via Zoom. Throughout our session Donna clearly demonstrated how to do a gua sha facial. Step by step Donna talked me through the process and was very patient with all the questions I asked through the consultation. Her knowledge and understanding of this practice along with the practical tips she gave me to take care of my skin daily were exceptional. Thanks again Donna for you time

TestimonialFrom the first moment of stepping into Donna's practice I felt such a warm welcome. The soft ambient tones playing in the background, the beautiful smells and the cosy space made it feel like a little oasis.After being encouraged to lay for the 'treatment proccess', the tone was set with an intricate cleansing routine, followed by face steaming,opening and purging of the facial pours.Her slow meditative strokes gradually sent me into a deep state of blissfulness only to be furthered with her use of the gua-sha on my face and neck. Time melted away as my body lost all sense of physical weight. Her caring, healing and masterful touch was my guide in and out of consciousness.A quick peep in the mirror rewarded me with a fresh and glowing look by shaving off a good five years. Thumbs up Donna, can't wait for my next one;-)

I had the most amazing facial with Donna. I have never felt so tranquil in a facial before, she released so much tension in my face I could barely speak afterwards I was so relaxed.She combines the most amazing techniques, including gua sha, jade roller, sound and vibration healing, smudging and very advanced facial massage. She also uses beautiful, natural skincare. You can see the results instantly after the facial. My fine lines had reduced, my skin looked glowing and plump. I felt like I had received a healing treatment as well as a facial.She is the best facialist I have been to, I highly recommend her.

Donna is a knowledgeable and very relaxing therapist. I had a wonderful facial that relieved all tension and instantly left my skin feeling softer, smoother and rejuvenated. Every product she uses is natural and leaves you skin glowing days after. I would highly recommend using Donna for a facial.

The best facial I have ever had in my life! So happy to have found Donna. Her facials are truly an experience. The amount of effort she puts into the facial is amazing. She uses beautiful natural products! I feel so relaxed and my skin is glowing! She has so much wisdom too and has inspired me to look after myself more! Cant wait for the next appointment.

I saw Donna for a combined session: facial, and sound healing. The Man Facial was deeply relaxing, and I felt that I was in good hands. Donna only uses natural products, so that's a bonus. She looked after my skin and gave a much-needed light massage through the face and jaw. Blissful.Throughout the facial, Donna played soothing music and healing tones, which then became the backdrop for the sound healing. Donna expertly navigated the energetic space, sensing into my energy and adapting her actions appropriately. I felt as though I was being nurtured, gently guided to where I needed to go for the good of my body, mind, and soul.Donna Ryan *IS* the Facial Goddess - and also so much more. Don't hesitate to book in straight away, it's the best decision you'll make today.

Donna provides a wonderfully relaxing and healing facial. My skin felt amazing afterwards and I loved the fact that everything she used on my skin was natural and chemical free. I also loved how she used crystals, reiki and massage techniques during the facial as they made it all a very unique facial experience. Donna has a natural healing touch and I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a facial.

My skin was dehydrated from the cold weather and central heating. After the facial with Donna my skin felt rejuvenated and looked glowing. It was a deeply relaxing experience Donna has a magic soothing energy! Highly recommend if you a looking for some excellent self-care.

My experience was exactly what I needed. The treatment room is so healing and relaxing in itself. The facial and head and neck massage was so relaxing that I was in a Blissed out state and left feeling recharged. I've booked another one as she took 10 years off of me!

I absolutely loved the experience with Donna! She is warm and inviting and so is her treatment room. I had the Goddess facial which absolutely left me feeling like a Goddess! Not only for my skin but also my well being. I'd highly recommend at least one a month to continue feeling like a Goddess and having glowing, healthy skin.I also love that all of the products used are natural & Donnas healing touch
