Arthur is the founder & CEO of EHS.
I am on a mission to get executives feeling healthy, by helping sustain behaviours that are essential to their daily lives.
I began my working life as a Chartered Accountant, so I recognise the challenges that executives face in corporate life. I believe that good health is the foundation of successful work-life integration.
18 years ago, I switched careers to my first love – a medical career. I completed a two-year Therapeutic Reflexology diploma at The School of Effective Reflexology Methods. I am registered with the Allied Health Professions Council Council – practice number is 108 000 0230731. I also practices Craniosacral Therapy, which complements Therapeutic Reflexology.
I have been a provider at wellness programmes of various natures with many organisations of different sizes and from different industries over 16 years. Clients include a wide variety and size of Corporates.
Arthur’s story
In the late 1900’s, as a business owner, I started experiencing intermittent pain and discomfort in my abdominal area. I ignored these symptoms, hoping they’d go away, however, in 2003, was diagnosed with Crohns disease. Crohns is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease. Doctors told me: “It is incurable and you just have to live with it”.
I was off work for a considerable length of time as well as intermittently thereafter, which caused me a lot of anxiety, frustration and even, at times, despair. At work, my performance level was well below what it had been before, and my motivation and drive were also severely dented. Living with Crohn’s can turn your daily life upside down and leave you feeling helpless.
I realized that I had to get myself well, because no one else was going to do it, I implemented basic elements of physical, mental, and emotional health into my life I read extensively about healthy, balanced living and I created an intentionally healthy and purposeful life.
Gradually my Crohns improved, until eventually I was able to go back to my doctor who was surprised to find no sign of the Crohns symptoms.
I had managed to reverse an “incurable” condition, and without medical intervention! The diagnosis was confirmed by a leading medical specialist.
How did Arthur I this?
The Solution
Was this a “miracle” cure?
Not really. It was due to a drastically changed lifestyle, in which diet, exercise, self-management , and Therapeutic Reflexology, all played a pivotal role.
When I considered the method that I had used to cure myself, it got me thinking about the setback to growth and profitability that companies can suffer when unforeseen health misfortunes like high blood pressure, gut problems, chronic stress or anxiety, obesity or any other nagging health concerns strike CEO’s or key executives.
I developed and refined the method into the Energy Multiplier – a programme designed to help executives counter the risks and consequences of stress and poor health with this programme.
The Energy Multiplier is a practical, step-by-step programme tailored to each executive’s special needs which targets essential elements of health, vitality & energy, including:
- Physical health
- Emotional health, especially stress, anxiety & depression
- Chronic & lifestyle illness
- Dietary & lifestyle habits
- Balancing of “feel good” hormones & neurotransmitters
And that’s good for business!
Arthur’s Committment
I am committed to helping executives become “unmanipulated” – liberated from external forces like the harmful effect of media on their well-being, as well as internal forces, like their thinking, their habits, their past-based assumptions, and the turmoil in their lives. Improving mind and body health helps boost energy and nurtures engagement, so executives offer more of their capability and potential.
I am currently completing a book on my journey with Crohns.
