Staff Profile
Andrea Porritt
Holistic & Advanced Reflexology Therapist – IIHHT FHT MICHT
As a qualified teacher who managed a large department of Modern Foreign Languages teachers, I thought my career path was pretty set in stone. However after suffering from a stress burnout after returning to full time teaching following maternity leave, I suddenly understood how debilitating stress, depression and anxiety can be. After using holistic therapies myself in order to cope with this, I decided to leave teaching and train as a reflexologist in 2012.
Even though I have now trained in Reiki, Indian Head Massage and Aromatherapy, Reflexology remains my passion. In particular I have enjoyed using Limbic Reflexology techniques in order to help clients with chronic pain conditions, such as fibromyalgia, as well as depression, anxiety and PTSD.
In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my family, baking and singing in a local community choir.
