She started out as a (very) mature student and didn’t have time to waste!
Dawn Dean

Dawn teaches Reflexology and also Aromatherapy Massage. Dawn, Kerrie and Lorraine were all in the same class when the school first opened in January 2005. They were all great students and Jackie is lucky to have them back at the school to teach for her.

Natalie teaches Reflexology. She qualified in Reflexology and Indian Head Massage with Jackie starting in 2012. Since then she has steadily developed her therapy business to include Bowen technique. After finally leaving her previous office employment early in 2014 she now works as a therapist in a private practice in Norwich.

What Our Clients have to say
‘Professionally taught by great tutor – started learning immediately from Day 1 of the course. Hard work but really enjoyable (appreciated realistic advice about level of homework)’ Lesley Knights
Jackie’s school is a genuinely friendly place. It was that atmosphere which made me join up for a sports massage course and I wasn’t disappointed. My teachers Lorraine and Persia were brilliant and made learning relaxed and fun.
I first attended Jackie Hamilton School of Therapies in 2009/2010 when I took the massive step of a change in career. I successfully undertook a Level 3 Diploma in Reflexology – I wasn’t disappointed and I haven’t looked back.
