what our students say

'Just completed Lorraine's Clinical Aromatherapy Diploma.

I already had Aromatherapy level 3, but the course fell short of my expectations.

This is not the case with Lorraine's courses. We were a small group of 2 who attended the course. The bonus of this was we had personal one to one with Lorraine when required.

Lorraine is a fabulous tutor, she is willing to share her expertise and knowledge.

Would also recommend the Ayurvedic Techniques in Indian Head Massage CPD course, The skills I learnt will easily fit into my current therapy.

Am now looking to another couple of her courses to attend in the next few months'
