CA1: 'Aromatherapy & Cancer'

This 2-day Course for those either working in the field of Cancer-care or for those interested in this topic, was prepared by one of our Principal Tutors and has the unique perspective of her experiences with malignant melanoma. Given a 40% chance of surviving 5 years, she decided to plumb the depths of her resources and gather what she perceived to be the best of both allopathic and complementary medicine and use them to her own advantage. So far, she is still very much alive and a great deal wiser about the human body and psyche.

It was reported, at a conference on Cancer, that one in two people will get Cancer sometime during their lifetime and, with this in mind, it is the intention of the Tutors to impart their hard-won knowledge to those who wish to support people in their battle with this disorder.

Topics addressed during the Course include:

* Consultations and Health & Symptom Profile

* Precautions and Contra-indications to Massage

* Experiences with Gerson Therapy

* Psychology, Emotions and Fears

* Impact of the Stress-factor

* Nutrition and the Immune-system

* Juicing

* Free radical activity, antioxidants, chemotherapy and radiotherapy

* Specific Essential Oils to support the immune system: with recipes for specific conditions

* Fragrance-testing: a unique perspective on essential oils - allowing the client to 'smell out' the oils that they require - the importance of olfaction and its impact on those seriously ill

* Adjuvant Complementary Therapies and Cancer Treatments

* Candida: and its relevance to Cancer

* Enemas, Detoxification, Clay and Castor Oil Packs: their role in relieving pain

* Pulse-synchronisation

* pH Testing

No prior experience is required for this Course.
