There is some St Saviour serious talent around and I was fascinated with the paintings produced and being worked during the class I attended to meet Mrs Bisson. P I am a great believer in alternative therapy and one particular treatment which fascinates me is 10 reflexology. Mrs Georgina Phillips offers such a treatment and I have had four sessions with her Memories already, and felt the very real benefits. You must visit Georgie at Georgie’s Devine Soles on the Facebook page and make an appointment. I have written an article together with photographs (yes, of the that is me on the couch!) and I cannot recommend such treatment highly enough.
