Details about Hugh will follow shortly....
After some dramatic life experiences I became interested in Holistic health. I am a qualified Indian Head Massage and Reiki Practitioner and belong to the UK Reiki Federation. Last year I qualified as a Reflexologist and have found this very popular. I am a Medium, read Tarot and Angel Cards and teach Psychic Awareness. I find it takes very small positive changes to make rewarding differences on a person's life and I believe Holistic Therapy is a great medium for this.
