Metta Yoga and Massage opens another clinic in Larkhall Village in Bath in August 2026

Larkhall local Joanna Leytham is opening a third branch of her successful yoga and massage practice in the heart of Larkhall Village: The Larkhall Clinic on Thursdays.

Joanna, who was raised in Larkhall and now lives back in the village, trained in India, Thailand and the UK. With 25 years of experience, she blends Eastern wisdom with Western science in her approach, which is always holistic and focused on empowering her clients to improve their wellbeing.

Joanna says:

“Larkhall has a lovely community feel, and is a nourishing and calm place to be. It’s the perfect place for Metta, which is all about loving-kindness and fostering unity amidst life’s challenges.”

The Larkhall Clinic Massage

Joanna is providing posture assessments, yoga, massage and facials from her newly opened clinic in Larkhall, alongside her established locations at Bath’s Lansdown Clinic and the Clifton Practice in Bristol. She started Metta, which means loving-kindness, over 7 years ago, after working at the Sports Training Village at the University of Bath, Bath Spa University, and The Gainsborough Hotel Spa. She is also currently training to be an Integrative counsellor. Joanna advocates for integrative wellness, considering the whole person and all their different parts when developing a treatment plan.

 At The Larkhall Clinic, Joanna will host a range of private yoga classes for 1-2 people, posture assessments, and a variety of massage treatments and facials. She is friendly and approachable, focusing on helping each client achieve greater wellbeing by being client-led and providing holistic knowledge and tips that support client autonomy in their own wellness journey, fostering long-term self-care.

Joanna is also excited to launch Wellbeing Workshops, including Women’s Circles at The Larkhall Clinic later this year.

Joanna says: “The women’s circles will offer a facilitated gathering for women to pause, connect and reflect together, in a relaxed setting. The range of activities on offer may include breathwork, bodywork, relaxation, journalling and thematic discussions, fostering a sense of community.”
