Letter from an Essentials for Health Graduate

I work at Estee Lauder one day a week and the other four days are devoted to working at Grayshott Spa in Guildford. I feel very blessed to be at one of the best spas in the country. I completely put it down to the most wonderful, detailed and creative teaching and the friendly, inspiring and supportive environment that you have created at EfH.

They also tip me as being one of their best therapists, so I would always rate EfH for massage studies and will return to study Aromatherapy and other relevant short courses.

I really put my successes down to you guys and I'm so pleased that I met you. I feel more fulfilled and contented as a person now that I'm doing what I feel I'm meant to be doing- it's hard to describe it. But I do know that I want to take massage and wellbeing as far as I can take it in this country.

All the best and thank you so very much for everything.

Love Kimberley Brown
