About
The roots run deep...
The area's heritage shines through this lovely archival photo, capturing the timeless character of the town. I'm proud to carry on the tradition of gentle care and community spirit in this historic setting.
Just to the right, behind the boy at the front, you can catch a glimpse of what becomes our lovely clinic ~72 years later!

A Local Favourite Since 1987
Originally opened as The Finishing Touch Skincare Centre, and later known as Halesworth Beauty Clinic, our doors have been open for over 35 years. In 2008, Sonya took over and renamed it The Magnolia Tree, where the same warm, personalised service continues today.
About me
I’m Sonya, and I’ve been part of this place since 1999 and became the proud owner in 2008. What I love most about this job is the relationships I’ve built; many clients have been with me for years. Every appointment is one-on-one and customised to you, whether it's skincare, homeopathy, or holistic treatments. My training includes time at the International Dermal Institute, and I’ve gained deep hands-on experience along the way.
Seeing people leave feeling more confident, calm, and comfortable in their own skin is what keeps me passionate about what I do.
A Welcoming Retreat
The Magnolia Tree salon offers a quiet space away from the hustle and bustle of daily life. You’ll find us just off the pedestrian thoroughfare, with convenient parking (2 hours free in the Market Square, except Wednesdays), and great cafés like The Boarding House just a stone’s throw away.
Whether it’s your first visit or you’ve been coming for years, you’ll always be greeted with a friendly smile and a warm cup of tea.

"Sonya makes talking about the difficult things easy and relaxed by her undoubtedly empathic and warm character... Homeopathy is clearly her calling, and from my own experience and I trust her implicitly."
