Raaul is a naturopath and colonic hydrotherapist
whose latest programme builds on the success of his well-known north
London centre, the Wellbeck Clinic. He was named one of Vogue's top
nutritionists in 2000. He's too discreet to name names, but actors,
politicians and celebrities beat a path to his door and brought him
an international clientele.
In 1994 Raaul started running
detox breaks at luxurious Hetland Hall in Scotland. As word of his
results spread through press reports, television and (his favourite
route) recommendations from satisfied clients, he found himself with
little time for holidays but an increasing belief that a balmy
climate could aid the cleansing process. Then he hit on the perfect
solution: bring his work to the island of Mallorca (Majorca), where
the atmosphere promotes relaxation and even a serious detox
programme has all the charm of a holiday in the sun.
Raaul spent four years
studying medicine at the Royal Free Hospital in London before his
growing interest in the holistic approach made him switch to
complementary therapies. He obtained a BSc in microbiology with
business studies from London University, then went on to become a
registered colonic hydrotherapist and to take a diploma in
naturopathy at Westminster University. A member of
The Association and Register of Colonic Hydrotherapists and
the British Complementary Medicine Association, Raaul is also
qualified to carry out blood tests for allergies.
Raaul's colonic hydrotherapy
practice in north London has attracted clients from around the
world. His work has been covered in newspapers and magazines
including The Sunday Times, The Daily Telegraph, Vogue, Health &
Fitness, Prima and GQ Active. He gives lectures at universities,
nursing schools and health centres and has appeared on BBC1 with
Ruby Wax in "Ruby's Health Quest".
