The Key to Beauty – Nail Technician – Beauty Therapist
Business Description
About the owner Megan

Hi there!

I am a fully nationally and internationally qualified

Beauty Therapist and Nail Technician. In 2010 I completed my diploma in Beauty Therapy and Applied Aesthetics and over the next few years I continued to work in various salons around Christchurch upskilling and gaining valuable experience.

Whilst on maternity leave with my second daughter in 2016, I decided to upskill in multiple Nail art courses to add to my resume. It was through these courses I discovered my love and passion for all things Nails, and persued my certificate in Nail Technology in 2017.

It was always my absolute dream to design and work in my very own salon and the goals do not stop there, I am excited to take you all along with me on my exciting journey!

I have a huge passion for Beauty and Nails, and love everything about how a luxurious pamper makes my clients feel! The aroma, the beautiful products, the calming music, a vibe a salon gives off, all contributes to my love for this industry!  I take pride in my work giving my full attention to detail, and find the impact of my treatments on my clients to be very rewarding – whether that is a warming and relaxing facial in amongst or to end their busy day or a much needed brow or nail makeover!

I believe my clients deserve the very best and I will go above and beyond for them while they are in my warm, clean and cozy salon with an ambience that I have carefully created.

I stock and use products and brands of a high standard and will be forever expanding my knowledge in this ever growing industry – it’s part of the fun!

Total Health Physio and podiatry
Business Description

Teresa Hoult has built and run several successful physiotherapy practices across Canterbury.

Teresa’s medical and practice management experience ensure you will have all the care you need, when you need it.

Pilates – is a lot of interest here – probably looking to do one night time class 7-8 Monday or Thursday and a daytime – maybe Tuesday or Thursday 0900-1000 or so. Classes would be a max of 6 – 8 people once I figure the floor space – booked for a 5 week block for $75 for the five weeks whether you make the class or not. Keen to know peoples preference for days and times.

I will be working close on fulltime at Silverstream for the next couple of months – approx hours 8-8 Mon and Thurs and 0900 – 1500 ish the other days – is some flexibility here. Another senior level physio will join us in Oct who will take over the shorter days from 0900 – 1445. Potentially as we grow another physio that I have done a lot of work with will join us as well – maybe after Xmas.

Hugely privileged to have a comprehensive team of senior level physios who will be working from Silverstream to provide full physio and rehab service. Coupled with Corrie doing podiatry – Silverstream will become a one stop shop for your health needs.

All feedback be it positive or negative is gratefully received – feedback is simply how we grow our service to meet the needs of the community. Cheers Teresa

My passion for making and designing cakes came when I was a child. Growing up with a large family, I helped my Mother baking for our large family, putting to practice my love for decorating family and friends celebration cakes. 4 years ago I was asked to do a gluten free wedding cake, from then on I was hooked, dairy free and even vegan I have done and offer these in all categories of my cakes.

I simply love making cakes, to see and hear the delight of my customers on either their wedding day, birthday or any other celebration gives me the greatest pleasure.

My passion for cake designing, working with clients for any celebration cakes is exuberayting! I love helping my clients work through their theme and ideas to come up with a cake that is a personalised exception for their day.
