REFLEXOLOGY IN CHESTER, CHESHIRE karen2bowen@hotmail.com
BackgroundI have been practising reflexology in Chester for over 12 years, coming from a backgound in nursing and health visiting. On completing my reflexology training in 1997(at the Simon Duncan School of reflexology on the Wirral), I continued to work part time as a nurse whilst building up my reflexology practice mainly in the Chester area, but also attracting clients from the Wirral and North Wales. After about three years, having built up a solid client base, I was able to leave my nursing career behind and concentrate solely on the reflexology, working exclusively from my premises in Hoole, Chester, where I continue to work to date.
Over the years, I have continued to update my practice to include Indian Head Massage, Thai Foot Massage (London School of Thai Massage), Hopi Ear Candling and pressure point face massage.
My qualifications include full membership of the Association of Reflexologists (see last page for qualification details) and I have recently completed courses in nutritional advice and stress management. I studied for these with Premier Global, a company that specialises in personal fitness.General approach to treatments
I am particularly interested in the negative effects of stress on our general health. Therefore most of the treatments I offer focus on promoting relaxation to help improve physical and emotional wellbeing. A combination of approaches is used and can include guided relaxation exercises and lifestyle advice, and each session is tailor made to the client's needs. Due to my background as a health visitor, I also have a special interest in working with clients throughout the whole of the pre-conceptual, ante natal and post natal periods (please see 'reflexology, fertility and pregnancy' for more information.)
Location
I practice from a quiet treatment room in the Hoole area of Chester which also has easy access to the Wirral and North Wales. The majority of clients come to my premises but occasional home visits can be made within the local area. There is generally parking available outside my premises during the day and within a minutes walk at busier times.
Treatments are available Mon to Fri daytime, some Saturday mornings and 3 evenings a week (last appointment time is usually 6 or 6.30pm).
Please note: Initial enquiries from ladies only please but if you have a male relative or friend who you think would benefit from reflexology please do enquire.
