Sharon Hurst

BACKGROUND

After completing courses in both holistic therapy and beauty therapy, I started working in a day spa environment in 2004, firstly with Hilton Hotels and then at the Nirvana Spa in Berkshire. I moved to the Algarve in 2007, and worked for two local Resort Spas until joining AlmaVerde in 2009 to become the Head Beauty Therapist. The care I provide my clients is very important to me. In giving a massage or beauty treatment my aim is to ensure that my client feels really well-looked after and relaxed.
