Deborah Casey, Founder of Calm Oasis Holistic Therapy, a fully Qualified & Insured Reiki Master Teacher, Massage Therapist, and Holistic Educator
I’m Deborah Casey, founder and lead instructor of Calm Oasis Holistic Therapy. With almost 30 years of hands-on experience as a qualified and insured massage therapist, Reiki Master Teacher, and holistic practitioner, I’ve dedicated my life to empowering others through natural healing, therapeutic practice, and accessible education.
My journey into holistic therapy began with a deeply personal mission—to help my eldest son heal from severe childhood eczema when conventional treatments offered little relief. That early success with natural methods inspired my lifelong commitment to holistic health. I went on to build a clinical practice, supporting private clients with therapeutic treatments and personalised care.
Over time, I expanded my focus to course creation, driven by a passion to make professional holistic training accessible to people across the globe. My online courses are designed to empower international students with real-world skills, professional insights, and natural approaches to wellness.
To support your professional journey, I’ve partnered with a recognised UK insurance provider who accepts my qualifications—giving you the option to gain insurance and practice professionally in a private clinical setting (where permitted).
My mission is simple yet powerful: to be useful. Specifically, to:
Provide inclusive, high-quality learning opportunities internationally
Deliver affordable, flexible, and independent learning experiences
Promote natural therapies as accessible, everyday wellness tools
Encourage the growth of ethical holistic businesses in Aromatherapy, Massage, Reiki, and energy therapies
Offer community-based treatment services that support sustainable, healthy living
At Calm Oasis Holistic Therapy, I teach from experience—with clarity, compassion, and a deep understanding of the healing journey. Whether you're starting a new career, building a wellness business, or simply embracing holistic living, my courses will give you the tools and confidence to move forward.
Join thousands of students from around the world and begin your journey into holistic wellness today. I look forward to supporting you every step of the way.
