About Us

Alison Martin started Essential Beauty  in 2005 after she moved to Cranleigh from Berkshire.

Her 20+ years in the industry, since leaving college in Chester, have seen her work within top London Spas and on some of the world’s premier cruise ships, with the responsibility of creating their luxury on board spa. On arriving home to the UK her responsibilities included managing  the Spa at the famous Clivedon Hotel, then the number one hotel in the UK.

Alison has been  in Cranleigh now for 6 years with her husband, 2 children & Herbie the dog. For the last 4 years she has enjoyed working within BodyZone gym where she established herself as a professional and friendly beauty therapist that clients could depend on. Now with the business growing, a partnership with Weyahead Hair Company seemed the obvious answer to offer more exciting new treatments to new and existing customers.
