COURSE HIGHLIGHTS

 

Indian Head Massage

An ancient Ayurvedic treatment of the head, neck and shoulders.  Use as a single treatment or as an addition to hair services or  spa pedicures.  To obtain a certificate of qualification students must complete 12 case studies followed by an exam (with an extra fee), otherwise a certificate of attendance will be issued. See Indian Head Page for more information.

 

Aromatherapy Basics

Students will profile commonly used essential oils and  carrier oils with properties, indications and safety data.  Blending of essential oils using step by step recipes is the first introduction to developing  aromatherapy products.  Special emphasis is placed on skin care and spa recipes.

 

Reflexology

“When the head is angry, massage the feet.”  This ancient Chinese approach to stress has, over time, proved to be an invaluable approach to stress management.  Students will discover the basics of acupressure techniques on the feet (reflexology). 

See Reflexology Page for more details.

 

Reiki Level 1

You will be introduced to Reiki, what it is and what is not. You will learn Reiki history, benefits, hand positions, body treatment techniques and words of wisdom. You will practice full body treatments, meditation and group treatments. The human energy field, chakras, client records, case histories, creating a healing room and more will be discussed.

See Reiki Page for more details.

 

Nutrition for Skin & Body Treatments
