Work for Us

A holistic approach to health and wellbeing

Complementary therapies offer a holistic approach to health and wellbeing which can complement conventional medical treatment.

A variety of therapies on offer

From Aromatherapy, Massage, Reflexology to an introduction to Chakras, we offer a wide range of complementary therapy courses.

We host workshops in complementary therapies across Oxfordshire in small and friendly groups. Our workshops will provide you with the opportunity to explore different branches of each therapy and their respective importance. Many of our courses are run at the weekend as standalone day courses, giving you the opportunity to learn a new skill without needing to make a large time commitment.

Therapies which aim to restore balance and harmony within the individual

Whether you are looking to learn techniques to help yourself relax or treatments to offer for your family and friends, our complimentary therapy courses can help you manage your emotions, relieve anxiety and stress and offer you ways to improve your health and wellbeing.

You can learn to alleviate pain and discomfort in a Massage course, to provide therapeutic care through Aromatherapy or master the art of Reflexology and Chakras.
