Little Jasmine turns 15: a pillar of well-being in Brighton & Hove

Brighton & Hove, with its coastal charm and vibrant culture, has been home to a transformative and inspiring journey that spans 15 years: Little Jasmine Therapies and Spa has been the city’s sanctuary, but its story is more than just about spa treatments.

In a small yet cosy apartment in Brighton back in 2008, two souls from distant lands nurtured a dream.

Kyriakos, hailing from the vibrant lands of Northern Greece, and May, carrying the rich traditions of Thailand, found themselves in the UK, bound by a shared vision for a brighter future. Their aspiration was not merely personal; it was a grand ambition to create something transcendent, a fusion of their values and cultures, offering moments of serenity and connection.

From the warmth of their modest living room, they embarked on a journey of providing exceptional massage treatments. Each session was a harmonious fusion of Greek zest and Thai tradition, ensuring every client felt deeply valued and rejuvenated. The business was a ray of light, growing steadily, day by day, client by client.

But life, with its unpredictable twists, presented Kyriakos with a challenge. He lost his job, leaving him with a three-month gap where he had to reassess his path.

For many, this would have been a moment of despair. However, for Kyriakos and May, it was an unexpected opportunity. These three months became the trigger for them to go all in, not just for their dreams but to safeguard the future of their family.

Then, as fate would have it, Amex offered Kyriakos another position. He accepted and continued to work there until 2014. Yet, the seed had been planted during those three pivotal months.

With unwavering determination, Kyriakos eventually decided to dedicate himself full-time to the business. The modest venture from their apartment began to evolve and, as the years passed, Little Jasmine expanded, a shining example of their dedication, resilience, and vision.

Little Jasmine today

Today, Little Jasmine shines as a distinguished oasis of holistic well-being in Brighton & Hove. Spread across three strategically located premises in the city, it has proudly served over 100,000 clients, offering them a haven of relaxation and rejuvenation. Its 12 luxurious rooms are meticulously designed to ensure a serene experience for every visitor.

With its unwavering dedication to quality and service, Little Jasmine has earned numerous accolades, solidifying its reputation as an award-winning establishment in spa therapies.

The Little Jasmine ethos: more than skin deep

From its inception, Little Jasmine was built on pillars of excellence. Every treatment was a blend of precision, expertise and genuine care. This wasn’t just an opportunity; it was a calling. A calling to transform lives, one session at a time, ensuring that every patron left not just satisfied but rejuvenated in body and spirit.

Driven by a purpose

At its core, Little Jasmine is more than just a Day Spa. It’s a mission. “A mission to enhance the well-being of 1 million individuals in our community”, as Kyriakos and May say. Every treatment, every session, is a step towards this ambitious goal. But why such a lofty mission? Because Little Jasmine believes in the power of well-being to transform lives. And in today’s fast-paced world, a moment of relaxation can make all the difference.

Values that echo in every corner

Little Jasmine’s ethos is deeply rooted in its values. Sustainability isn’t a trend; it’s a commitment. From eco-friendly practices to partnerships with charities like Alzheimer’s Society and Cancer Research UK, the Spa’s footprint goes beyond business. It’s a tapestry of empowerment, community engagement and a celebration of diversity.

Kyriakos and May, along with their son Marko, embody a hands-on approach to charity. Their dedication isn’t just financial; it’s personal. In April 2023, the family travelled to Thailand, where they directly fed 10 schools and nourished over 2000 children with healthy food.

This hands-on experience, serving with their own hands, underscored their belief in the tangible impact of direct involvement. “Being present and active in charitable work isn’t just a philosophy; it’s a way of life for us” says May.

Their commitment to charity is further evident in Little Jasmine’s steadfast support for the Rockinghorse Children’s Charity. This esteemed organisation has been a pillar of support for sick and disabled children across Sussex for over 55 years.

The ever-evolving Day Spa world demands constant innovation. With plans to expand and a vision to introduce more groundbreaking services, Little Jasmine is poised for a future as luminous as its past.
