The Federation of Holistic Therapists has named Christopher Byrne as its new president.
Elected by his peers on the FHT Governing Council, Byrne replaces Paul Battersby, who has served for the past two years, and will be responsible for representing the interests of the FHT and its members.
Byrne, who runs a therapy practice and training school in Cheshire, UK, began his career as a therapist, following a 20-year career as a chartered engineer with companies such as Bentley and Rolls Royce. He initially trained in Swedish and sports massage before completing an MSc degree in Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine, before gaining clinical experience at the Hepingli Hospital and Beijing Academy in China.
"It is a privilege to be elected as the sixth president of the FHT and a great honour to be representing our members during these exciting times," he said.
"During my time as president, I will be working hard to promote the safe and excellent therapy services our members have to offer. As a full-time therapist and therapy trainer myself, I understand what a difference our members are making to their clients' lives - whether that's helping them to manage a long-term condition of injury, or simply encouraging them to make small lifestyle changes that will help to improve their overall wellbeing and self-esteem.
"I also appreciate the need for further recognition for the work our members do, whatever their therapy specialism, and particularly in the field of health and social care."
