Summary:
Learn how to apply the best of complementary medicine alongside allopathic treatment, in the context of Cancer-care.
Overview
This course is for those either working in the field of Cancer-care or for
those interested in this topic. The Course is geared towards qualified and
practising Aromatherapists, however, we also allow those with no prior experience
to join us. There is much value to be had from using essential oils, even for just their aroma alone and we wish to share this valuable information with anyone who wants to gain such knowledge. The mix of abilities works very well because hospice workers and carers bring very different dimensions to the course, usually
valuable for all who attend. We clearly define the applications that can/cannot be utilised by non-Aromatherapists
The course was prepared by one of our Founders - Alison Perrott 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 advantage. So far, she is still very much alive and a
great deal wiser about the human body and psyche.
For Qualified Aromatherapists
We also take those with no prior experience
