CHERIE DUIR HOWE
Specialist massage therapist
L.M.T, APNT, FHT, BCMA
I’m a Bodyworker, the majority of my work is a whole body approach to reducing pain & restrictions whilst rebalancing & realigning the body’s fascial system. I am even more passionate about my work now. I treat people or horses, or people & their horses. I enjoy it immensely, and try to ensure that my clients do too. The focus of my work is remedial applications. I specialise in pre & post surgery, injury recovery work, including but not limited to back surgeries, knee & hip repair or replacements, neck issues, shoulder repair/ RSI & foot/ankle or hand/wrist issues.
Cherie was professionally licensed in the USA in 1985 and joined the Hogarth Group in 1999. She has trained in a variety of therapies and is a Certified Reiki Master, Somassage® & ScarWorks® Therapist. Cherie is best known for her own style of Deep Tissue Bodywork.
The primary focus of her practice remains pre and post surgery, and injury recovery work, using techniques from several therapies for near painless scar tissue reduction and mobilisation. Many of her clients are medical referrals (she generally works to the specifications of the referral team), but clients do not need to be referred or injured in order to benefit from her treatment.
Cherie has successfully worked with world champion athletes, including runners and triathletes, at many events including the Hawaiian, Canadian Whiskey Jack and many European Ironman competitions. She regularly treats professional stage and screen actors, international opera singers and professional dancers of all disciplines, as well as acrobats, arialists, contortionists and competitive horse riders.
Cherie is originally from the Seattle area and moved to West London in 1991. She loves horseback riding, gardening, oil painting, textile arts, creating stained glass pieces, cooking for fun (her former profession), and creative writing.
Cherie describes her therapies as "Synergy Touch" using a myriad of treatments.
