Aromatherapy Professionals are in Demand!
The Holistic Aromatherapist (HA) diploma program is uniquely designed to encompass all stages of life, with the serious, “whole-istic” student in mind. Learn how essential oils are used in place of synthetic drugs and acquire therapeutic methods of application as well as blending to maximize the benefits and the many artistic uses of aromatherapy. Delve into health and disease processes to learn how nutrition and supplements can work synergistically with essential oils to support healing and to minimize symptoms. Master cutting-edge safety and usage guidelines, then gain the science-based knowledge necessary to dispel unsafe marketing myths that perpetuate the industry.
Those who work or aspire to work in health-related fields such as nursing, natural health, physiotherapy, occupational therapy, the mental health profession, (and more…), will find the Holistic Aromatherapist program particularly relevant.
We have meticulously selected the texts and materials to create a program that is compact, yet comprehensive. The aromatherapist program materials include books from respected professionals in the essential oil field of study, including Shirley and Len Price, Robert Tisserand, and Rodney Young.
Real Time: Led by Sharlene Peterson every 4-6 weeks, Real Time is a live, open-discussion meeting that is held online. Our students are invited to attend from the comfort of their own homes. Come and collect clinical “pearls,” as well as ask questions and engage in a variety of health-related conversations.
Accreditation: Graduates are eligible to apply for Board Certification with the American Association of Drugless Practitioners Certification and Accreditation Board. Board Certification is voluntary – not required. You may freely consult with clients as long as you do not “diagnose or treat”
The HA program contains the Aromatherapy Consultant (AC) requirements which makes it a double-diploma program. Graduates will receive both the AC and HA diplomas.
