I have really enjoyed working on these courses, and now have completed 6 Foundation Courses! I am really pleased!
I am a Mum of 4 children, and have worked with my husband for the past 5 years. At the beginning of 2011, I decided to take up my long time passion of reflexology and massage. I was lucky enough to find your website, and I have been on an amazing journey ever since!
Thank you to the School of Natural Health Sciences for making it all possible and so easy!

I did an exhaustive search on Google for over 6 weeks, looking for an Online or Residential course for Holistic Massage Therapy.
I found the School of Natural Health Sciences courses best suited for the purpose, as I am planning to open Spa’s in Australia within the year and your courses are accredited worldwide. I found the course thorough, precise and instructive. The hands-on instruction and training that is essential for a practitioner.
I am very happy with it and as and when I feel the need, I am sure I will be undertaking other courses offered by your School.
