Complementary Health Courses

Work as an aromatherapist or massage therapist

The term complementary health covers a range of ‘natural medicine’ therapies, such as aromatherapy and massage, that can alleviate some symptoms and may assist with general health and wellbeing. Some complementary therapies are recognised by medical professionals, as part of an integrated approach to health care. Practitioners work in a range of healthcare settings, from home-based clinics to hospitals.
