Deep Tissue Holistic Massage Hereford

In 1998 I was working as a butcher, managing a family owned business; it was in this year that I made several major life changes, one of which was to become a vegetarian.  Finding a new career was a natural progression.

After several years travelling across certain parts of England and trying my hand at different jobs I failed to find anything that I was either happy with or that suited my skills and talents. Finally, after some serious soul searching I decided to go back to college to re-train and in 2003 was fortunate to be accepted on a course at the Royal National College in Hereford under Jane Crabtree, a highly regarded and well respected massage therapist. The course was a year long residential one which also covered anatomy, physiology and sports massage.  At the end of the course I qualified as a Holistic Remedial Therapist.

Following qualification I travelled first to Scotland where I lived and worked for a year at Findhorn, a spiritual community on the Moray Firth, then  Lanzarote to a holistic health centre situated at the base of a volcano. While living there I was the sole masseur for the athletes competing in the Lanzarote stage of ‘The Iron Man’ competition – the Lanzarote leg of which is described as one of the toughest in the world.  Then, after back-packing around Europe for a year (including a five-week hike from the Pyrenees across Spain following the `Camino de Santiago de Compostella` pilgrimage) I came back to settle in Hereford where I have set up my own successful practice.  At the beginning of 2008, to add to my life experience, I undertook a ten-day course in silent meditation at the Vipassana Meditation Centre  near Hereford.

I work at Penrhos Court for Daphne Lambert, at the Hereford Centre for Natural Health,  Belmont (website currently undergoing maintenance) and also at the Art of Living in St Owens Street.
