CA1: 'Aromatherapy & Cancer'

PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS COURSE IS ALSO AVAILABLE AS DISTANCE-LEARNING

This course, for those either working in the field of Cancer-care or for those interested in this topic. The Course is geared to qualified and practising Aromatherapists but we allow anyone to come on it as there is so much valuable information and much value to be had from using essential oils for their aroma alone. We clearly define what parts cannot be utilised by non-Aromatherapists and the mix of abilities works very well as hospice workers and carers bring in a very different dimension to the course which is valuabe for therapists

It 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.

* Consultations and Health & Symptom Profile
