I've just discovered the Barclay Academy of Complementary Health in Abingdon. How it went unnoticed for so long I don't know as it covers a vast range of complementary therapy training - ideal for starting either a first or second career!
It was founded by Beverly Barclay - an orthopaedic nurse and Radliffe-trained RGN who subsequently trained in Holistic Massage, Reflexology, Aromatherapy and Indian Head Massage and has been both a practising therapistand a tutor in these for many years. She is also one of the few Bowen Technique therapists in the UK.
The Academy is accredited by the International Therapy Examining Council (ITEC) for Diplomas in Holistic Massage, Sports Massage, Aromatherapy and Reflexology. Any qualification gained here will therefore prove that you have full knowledge and understanding of the subject, the highest level of practical skills and certainty that you are a professional therapist able and qualified to work internationally.
In addition to the ITEC Diplomas, BACH also offers a range of introductory day courses in Massage, Reflexology, Kinesiology, Indian Head Massage,Manual Lymphatic Massage, Counselling, Alexander Technique and Making Natural Cosmetics. These are a great opportunity to discover your potential and progress on to developing a rewarding new career as a practitioner.
