ISHA Body Jewellery is Dorset's only member studio of both the Association of Professional Piercers (APP) and the UK Association of Professional Piercers (UKAPP).
We specialise in professional body piercing, curated ear styling, fine body jewellery, and forever welded jewellery within a calm, welcoming and luxury studio environment.
Whether you're visiting for your first piercing, a complete ear curation, or a meaningful welded jewellery experience, every appointment is tailored to your anatomy, style and goals.
Founded by professional body piercer Emma Rance, ISHA was created with a simple vision: to offer a more elevated and personalised alternative to the traditional piercing studio experience.
Emma's piercing career began in 1998 as Weymouth's first female body piercer. Today, ISHA has become a destination studio known for exceptional jewellery, anatomy-led piercing, and industry-leading standards.
Clients regularly travel from across Dorset and throughout the UK to experience ISHA's unique approach to piercing and jewellery styling.
