About Us

Established in Houston, Texas in 1997, Derwen Holistic Therapies' founder, president, and senior lecturer is Patricia McPherson ITEC; LMT; LMTI; MAR; GIHT.

Educated in Europe as a Holistic Healthcare Professional, and college level instructor, Patricia first visited Houston in 1996 for her daughter's wedding. A chance remark about the lack of truly certified Reflexologists in the Houston area gave Patricia the vision of returning to establish a Reflexology Center where she could practice and teach her most favorite of therapies.

That vision was realized in late 1997 and since then over a hundred students from several States and a diversity of cultural backgrounds have graduated as ITEC certified reflexologists. For more information about ITEC please click here.

Each of the holistic therapists at our wellness center is ITEC certified. So, whether you're looking to employ our services as a client or a student, you can be sure that you'll find yourself in safe hands!!
