Alison Bladh, a registered nutritional therapist, women’s hormone health specialist, beauty therapist and educator, has been named a finalist in four separate categories at the Beauty & Skincare Awards UK 2026: Holistic Practitioner of the Year, Educator of the Year, Entrepreneur of the Year and Wellness Therapist of the Year.
Now in its fourth year, the awards celebrate outstanding talent and professionalism across Britain’s beauty, skincare and wellness industry, judged by a panel of industry experts including Katie Godfrey and Jessica Crane. Winners will be announced at an online ceremony on Saturday 21 November 2026.
The four nominations, spanning holistic practice, education, entrepreneurship and wellness therapy, reflect the breadth of Alison’s work since she created the Meno Massage Method™, a treatment that brings together lymphatic drainage, facial massage and menopause science to support women through the hormonal transition. Working with therapists across the UK and internationally, Alison has this year started training practitioners to deliver the method, and educating both professionals and women directly about the physiological changes of menopause.
Alison said: “Being recognised in four categories at once genuinely stopped me in my tracks. Each of these nominations represents a different thread of the work, from the treatments, to the training, to the education, to the business of building something from the ground up. To have all of that seen and celebrated in the same moment is incredibly humbling. And to have it happen at the same time as the Swedish launch? It feels like everything I have worked for is landing at once.”
Bestseller in Sweden
The awards recognition comes alongside the news that Alison’s book, now published in Swedish, has launched across Sweden’s major bookshops and immediately entered the bestseller charts, claiming the number one position in three separate categories. The Swedish edition is the first international translation of Alison’s work and takes the Meno Massage Method™ to a new audience at a time when the global conversation around menopause is gaining momentum.
Alison, who splits her time between Sweden and the UK, said: “When I wrote this book, I wrote it for the women in my treatment room, the ones who were exhausted, confused and had been told there was nothing more to be done. As it was so hugely successful in the UK, it’s fabulous to now see it on shelves in Sweden, and in the treatment rooms of the practitioners I have trained in Sweden, to further support their clients.”
Alison is a speaker, educator and author whose mission is to give women the knowledge and tools to understand their changing bodies, and to know that they can do something about it.
