Carol M. Tan
Spiritual Healer & Reflexologist
Carol M. Tan is a spiritual healer and licensed reflexologist who has become a favorite guru amongst elite Hollywood celebrities and athletes. Her healing talents have earned her a word-of-mouth reputation as one of the very best at what she does, and she currently travels all over the world to meet with her illustrious clientele including Sir Paul McCartney, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Benedict Cumberbatch, Gabrielle Union, Adam Levine, Pharrell Williams, Ellen DeGeneres, and many, many more.
Carol was born in Cambodia during the early days of the Khmer Rouge, the regime responsible for one of the worst mass killings of the 20th Century, which took the lives of up to two million people. Her family fled Cambodia when she was 5 years old, sponsored by an Episcopalian church in Seattle. Determined that their children would have successful live in the US, Carol’s parents emphasized education heavily. In Cambodia, reflexology was considered the practice of beggars, and Carol’s parents couldn’t fathom that it might be her path to success in America.
Though she felt her calling in her soul, Carol also struggled to do what was considered “right” by her family. Over the years, Carol was a shop girl, waitress, bartender, massage therapist, business owner (of several small businesses), she did a brief stint in nursing school and even worked in finance on Wall Street. As Carol puts it, “I have worked on Wall Street, I have worked the restaurants feeding everyone on Wall Street, and now I have helped relieve the stress of everyone on Wall Street.”
Carol discovered her ability to heal through massage therapy, and eventually through reflexology, when her clients consistently told her that she was giving her more than a massage, that her gifts were greater than that. Now that she has been able to fully embrace her calling, she knows that her purpose is the healing of humanity through touch. Though she frequently travels to New York and London for work, Carol lives in London with her three children.
