As we come to understand more about the human nature, we recognise the need to offer integrative wellness solutions by fine-tuning mind, body and spirit, rather than individual parts. The holistic beauty therapy course provides you with an understanding in human anatomy, nutrition, massage, aromatherapy, counselling and beauty treatments (skin care, hand and feet care, hair treatment, face structure). It also gives you the practical insight into self-employment, with modules on client contact, health and safety and setting up a practice.
