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

PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS COURSE IS ALSO OPEN TO NON-AROMATHERAPISTS

This 1-day Course is designed for Aromatherapists and Massage Therapists who wish to be able to massage pregnant women with confidence. Please note that non-Aromatherapists cannot use essential oils unless under the supervision of a qualified Aromatherapist.

The course was formulated at the request of our ex-students who wished to support their clients throughout pregnancy, which, they did not previously feel confident enough to tackle. As such, it has arisen from authentic 'field-conditions' and has proved extremely beneficial to those who have since used the techniques taught.

This course has essential oil data for the use of Aromatherapists and the interest of non-Aromatherapists. Essential oils should not be used on these client groups unless you are a qualified Aromatherapist.

Aromatherapists will be issued with a Certificate of Qualification in 'Pregnancy Aromatherapeutic Massage', Massage Therapists will be issued with a Certificate of Qualification in 'Pregnancy Massage'.

For qualified Aromatherapists or Massage Therapists.
