Thank you for your replies, I guess I shall be giving that one a miss It is such a shame, these places seem so promising and then sock you one between the eyes! There is absolutely nothing in my area of Kent, so I was hoping for a decent correspondence course. There has to be something out there ... Perhaps a thread with votes on the best correspondence colleges I shall keep searching away ...

Thank you both for your replys, I am 99% sure I will sign up!

Hi sarahsu Great news ! you will have no difficulty in being able to 'specialise' in whatever you want under the umbrella of Reflexology. As you do the course it should become more and more clear that you are actually working with the whole person mind, body and spirit rather than any particular condition they may or may not have. However if you focus your interest on helping people with certain conditions you will attract these...

Thanks for your reply Reiki Pixie. You're so right. I am worrying about this far too early on. Its taken me a long time to have the confidence to start my new journey into a job I'll love (as opposed to the awful office work i've been stuck in for years)......so i'm spending alot of time trying to work out what I should do/when/how.

Hello welcome to HP, If I was you I really would take BGFL's advice and stay well clear, they have this irritating, fawning manner with their prospective students while trying to get money out of you then once you are signed up they treat people appallingly, I signed up for a course on Co-Dependency Counselling the material was so shoddy and very, very basic it shocked me and the people who work there once they have money out of you are...

Hi Elewolf, I have quite a lot of BSY material, including relaxation therapy, and to say it is basic is an understatement. There are some great books and DVD's available on meditation, however im not sure about meditation teaching, so cant help you with that one, sorry.

There has been much said about BSY on this forum, a simple search should reveal the information you need. From personal experience, I would not waste my time and money on what for me were outdated and shoddily prepared course materials. I actualy bought a course to check to see if it met the National Occupational Standards in my subject specialism, and honestly it was poor. regards BGFL

Hi Colltom, Just google the information. It's all there just keep searching what you need. I've just google "History of Aromatherapy" and found all the information you need on it's journey to modern Aromatherapy. Best of luck, Cheers, Sue

I've studied with them but when they were still the NFSH. Very good courses and a great healing organisation to join. Thoroughly recommended.

I have also studied with them. The 2 year course is very comprehensive. I learned a lot and met some wonderful people.
