There are now many GP Practices and hospitals whom recommend many alternative treatments for their patients, thus holistic therapist's & practitioner's are becoming more and more in demand.

HEALTH & NUTRITION PRACTITIONERS - Health can be defined in many ways, the focus may be on the biological causes of health and disease or it may focus on the social and emotional aspects as they all relate to one’s overall wellbeing and quality of life. Because there are so many varied aspects to health and well being, how we view health will depend mainly on many contributing factors. Who we are and our interests in health are only two of these components. However, health is more commonly thought of as the absence of disease but a more comprehensive definition would expand this to include the presence of complete physical, mental and social wellbeing. Learning more about this can enhance your progression and career in the health professions thus improving your employment prospects or working as an independent health advisor.

HOPI EAR CANDLING - Hopi Ear Candling is an ancient treatment that has been used for thousands of years and today continues to be widely used by practitioners to treat a range of issues. On the surface, Hopi ear candles regulate ear pressure and loosen and remove excess wax from the ear canal, yet by doing so, they are able to effectively treat a number of conditions such as headaches/migraines, sinusitis, tinnitus and allergic rhinitis.
The candling treatment helps to rebalance the pressure in and around the eardrum, soothing and calming many symptoms. The process of Hopi candling involves a specially designed hollow candle being inserted just inside the ear canal. The candle is then lit and the suction that is formed draws the impurities from within the ear. This process is known as ‘the chimney effect’. The rising air gives the ear drum a gentle massage and also helps to regulate ear pressure. A small amount of ear wax may also be removed during the treatment. Hopi Ear Candling Courses |

Once the stones have heated sufficiently, they are then placed onto certain points on the body (such as the back, hands, legs etc.) and the other stones are then held by the therapist in which they are then used to massage and work the muscles.
