Our belief is that Complementary Therapies have an important role to play in the well-being of individuals. They are a useful tool that can work well alongside conventional medicine. Training thus emphasises the development of a holistic perspective, and benefits of treatment are not just for the "physical", but also for the "mind" and "spirit".
We have developed a reputation which amounts to excellence and many top clubs and spa's, such as Virgin Active, Sanctuary and Champney's have recruited our students as well as recommend our courses for post graduate development.
