Description
Introduction
Hi and Welcome to this course, which continues on from the introductory course, A taste of Aromatherapy and level one Aromatherapy courses which formulates a progressive pathway of learning to becoming a qualified, professional, practising Aromatherapist.
Aromatherapy is an ancient practice stemming back some thousands of years. It is an art and science of utilising aromatic essential oils to aid health and well-being. These essential oils are collected from plant material; flowers, seeds, roots, tree bark are just some of the materials essential oils are collected from. The essential oils have therapeutic properties that aid many ailments, help with nourishing our mind and body, and lift up our spirits.
This level two course develops your knowledge of Aromatherapy, including building further upon some topics previously covered, but also including plant families, and an A to Z directory of essential oils, including their therapeutic benefits and a section specifically produced for this course ‘Recipe of Delight’ creating signature blends.
This is a pre-requisite to level three qualified professional practitioner Aromatherapy. This level two course is education and training only and does not qualify you as an Aromatherapist however you will be able to practice with family and friends who would become case studies.
This course does not replace seeking medical assessment, advice, treatment from an appropriately qualified medical doctor and/or referral to other professionals.

About Deborah, course instructor and creator
Since my childhood I’ve had a profound interest in nature and natural health - my introduction was through my gran and my mother who had a large garden and an allotment and grew our food. My path of learning led to gaining my education and training in holistic and natural therapy and medicines. I then gained my nursing degree but my passion has been holistic and natural therapy and medicines.
Progressing…
From this foundation I opened Calm Oasis Holistic Therapy as a private clinic. Then five years ago expanded into online, multi-media home study education and training course production and provision. These courses gained approval status from the International Institute of Complimentary Therapists.
Where students undergo in person training the IICT will accept your Diploma, however due to the corona virus issue in person training is not possible and many people are unable to travel. And so this led to the development of the two membership groups; British Holistic Therapy Organisation and British Reiki Organisation which welcomes all students from all locales.
It is my life's mission to support as many students around the world to take back their choice about their health, well-being and vitality. Through natural approaches, founded in ancient cultures, therapy modalities can promote good health and well-being, restore vitality, and empower people with options and choices.
Our organisation provides:
1. Education and Training to students globally
2. Some courses are for information only
3. Access to professional membership
4. Access to professional therapist insurance with out partner organisation, however outside the UK and EU students will need to make enquires to make sure this training will allow professional indemnity insurance will be provided
Approved courses;
The Calm Oasis Holistic Therapy diploma courses have pre-requisites and it is the students responsibility to have met these, do not disappoint yourself with failing to complete the requirements.
The requisites include:
1) completion of levels one and two before going onto the diploma courses
2) where indicated completion of other courses in preparation for advanced learning i.e. level one/back massage before body massage, hot stone back massage and body massage before hot stone massage THERE ARE NO EXCEPTIONS TO THIS and this is checked out! There are other courses out there offering accreditations/approvals but ask yourself are you gaining a fully comprehensive course? And you may look at the fees and think they are too costly but you can regain your investment when you receive paying clients... investing in your education is of great value.
2) completion of all assignments and case study
3) hands on practical session which students write about, to ensure they have embraced their learning fully.
Classes offered are online and multi-media as this is the most affordable approach for students. I'm also author of various holistic and complementary therapy books.
Note I work British working time and office hours apply. As such if you send me a message or leave a review I may not respond immediately.
When you enrol onto any of the courses you are accessing a fully comprehensive course, where indicated, which has received approval from an international professional organisation. Where indicated courses also offer the option of obtaining a certificate of completion or a Professional Diploma qualification.
When you undertake the professional training programme of learning you will need to consider and obtain student insurance or where you are a qualified therapist find out if your current insurance covers you for liability.
Deborah Casey and Calm Oasis Holistic Therapy, do not accept, any liability whatsoever for your practices. These instructions may change time to time to ensure students are compliant with our training requirements.

And lastly
I, Deborah, am so very grateful to Udemy for hosting our courses and allowing me and my organisation to bring these wonderful lessons to you. In the present time access to medical care maybe limited or not available for one reason or another, these practices can support healing, though they cannot provide a cure. But most of healing is assisting the body to do what is designed to do - heal.
