About

Karen W. Hinds, is a London-trained massage therapist who has been practicing holistic therapies since 2004. Her desire to see people pain-free and mentally healthy are just 2 of the reasons she undertook this path of complementary therapy, and has used her skills to work with cancer patients in palliative care, and mental health patients in London, to promote relaxation, balance, and total well-being.
