Reflexology Course

3.5(2)

By Elearncollege

Description Reflexology Diploma Reflexology is an early practice rooted in the idea of pressure and touch with the aim to benefit overworked and stressed people. Foot reflexology is particularly helpful in bringing deep relaxation to the body and with all its intricate bones and sensors, becomes a microcosm for the rest of the body. Reflexology increases blood circulation and helps in complete stress reduction of the body that gets tired after long hours of work. Reflexology by paying attention to the minor details of human anatomy aims to target the main reason for a problem rather than the symptoms. Reflexology was seen as a faux science. However, scientific enquiry has revealed the connection of the foot with the rest of the body. Reflexology was used by doctors in the 19th and 20th centuries. In recent times doctors in Europe and Asia prescribe reflexology techniques alongside existing medicines. The Reflexology Diploma Course throws light on different stress reduction techniques and relaxation methods that can reach all parts of your body. Weight loss is another topic that Reflexology covers. This course is recommended not only for reflexologists and therapists but to anyone who is curious and thoughtful enough to understand the interesting field of reflexology.

Medical Acupuncture Course

3.5(2)

By Elearncollege

Description Medical Acupuncture Diploma One of the ancient medical procedures in the world, Acupuncture traces its origin to China more than 2000 years ago. It gained popularity in the United States when in 1971 New York Times journalist J Reston wrote about how his post-surgery trauma was eased by the doctors in China with the help of needles. The term acupuncture means a group of procedures that involve the stimulation of the anatomical points on a human body using various methods. The practice of acupuncture in America blends medical traditions from various countries like China, Korea, Japan and others. The most scientifically studied acupuncture technique is the penetration of the skin with the help of thin, solid, metallic needles that are done either by hand or electrical stimulation. Nowadays, a number of qualified medical practitioners are becoming aware of how acupuncture has been combined successfully with western medicine by the Chinese. And they are interested in adopting this combination to better help their patients. By taking our course, you will get a great opportunity to attain the best possible results for patients. Qualified professionals like doctors, dentists, physiotherapists, homeopaths, chiropractors, osteopaths and nurses, etc. or even any non-professional can study acupuncture by taking the Medical Acupuncture course. Acupuncture helps patients recover their physical as well as mental harmony by working on a deep level. It not only helps to recover physical as well as mental health, as the western world increasingly acknowledges, but also works as a powerful tool of preventive medical therapy. Irrespective of whether it is used to restore health or to prevent the development or recurrence of a condition, Acupuncture helps patients maintain their mental as well as physical balance. Chinese acupuncturists who follow tradition undergo years of rigorous training under revered teachers. They teach them how to diagnose and treat patients in an zmanner based on ancient principles. In a medical family, one generation of TCM acupuncturists pass down treatments and special acupuncture and acupressure points to the next generation, thereby forming a vast body of knowledge. By undergoing this powerful and comprehensive course, you will master the skills and techniques and also acquire the background required to understand more about this healing art that remained obscure until a few decades ago. What you will learn 1: History And Development of Acupuncture 2: Therapy And Outcomes 3: Treatment Uses Of Medical Acupuncture 4: Training and Quality Assurance 5: The Chinese Perspective of Health and Disease 6: An Introduction to Chinese Measurements Course Outcomes After completing the course, you will receive a diploma certificate and an academic transcript from Elearn college.

Some counsellors are brilliant, others useless – some even harm clients (albeit unwittingly). The best online counselling course I've ever doneCHILD PROTECTION OFFICER Why take this course Despite the wealth of research findings available to us today, the field of counselling and talking therapies still lacks a shared, cohesive evidence-based approach as to the best ways to help people – as a result, and despite the hardworking army of counsellors and psychotherapists (operating from a wide range of models), the rates of depression, anxiety disorders, addictive behaviour etc continue to climb. This online counselling course cuts through the ideology and concentrates on what we know from research findings works – and why – important information if you want to ensure you’re helping your patients as quickly and effectively as possible. Tutor Joe Griffin is an acknowledged expert on psychological interventions for depression, anxiety, anger disorders, trauma and addiction. He has transformed the outcomes of thousands of counsellors by showing them how to work with the givens of human nature – the result is a truly holistic, evidence-based and powerfully effective approach that empowers clients and helps them build resilience against future setbacks. If you work with, or support, distressed adults or children, you will gain essential new information that will make your work easier and more effective. The training course also provides an excellent foundation for anyone interested in becoming a counsellor or psychotherapist – it will help you see the wood for the trees – and could even save you years of wasted effort!

Effective brief psychotherapy

By Human Givens College

Discover how to make a positive difference – whatever the problem – using the key concepts and skills encompassed in human givens therapy. Accredited CPD: 6 hours With mental health problems affecting ever-increasing numbers of people, there is an economic and moral need for psychotherapy to be as effective as possible. What an inspirational, motivating online brief psychotherapy course!PSYCHIATRIST Why take this course Brief solution-focused therapy has been found (in a meta-analysis of hundreds of efficacy studies) to be far more effective in treating anxiety disorders, depression, phobias, trauma and addiction, than any form of therapy that assumes treatment needs to be long-term. But not all brief psychotherapeutic approaches are the same – some are more effective than others. On his hugely informative online brief psychotherapy course, Ivan Tyrrell distils the essential components you need to make your psychotherapeutic interventions as quick, reliably effective and long-lasting as possible. He clearly demonstrates how, by combining proven psychotherapeutic skills with new insights and techniques derived from the human givens approach (such as how to work more in tune with the brain by using the APET™ model), we can help distressed individuals and families even more effectively. The result is a powerful integrative, bio-psycho-social approach that allows you to work flexibly with each client’s situation – helping them to recover their lives as quickly as possible – and empowering them with new knowledge and skills that will build resilience against future setbacks. Anyone working in the welfare and caring professions can safely introduce these new strategies and concepts into their work – you will also gain a richer knowledge of why so many people have mental and emotional problems.

From Stress to Psychosis

By Human Givens College

How to prevent mental illness New insights into the causes of mental illness, including severe conditions like schizophrenia, are explaining distressing symptoms and reducing suffering… Despite the billions spent trying to alleviate mental illness around the world, the rates of mental and emotional distress are increasing. Why? What is going wrong? Why are millions of people so stressed? And what can we do about it? Brilliant online course! At last, a clear explanation of what causes mental illnesses.PSYCHOLOGIST Why take this course ‘From Stress to Psychosis: how to prevent mental illness’ gives you the answers – and much more.. Over the last two decades, course tutor Ivan Tyrrell has played an influential role in integrating psychotherapy and counselling with the latest findings about brain functioning and human behaviour. On his enlightening course, you will find out how this knowledge – and the many insights derived from it – can be easily applied to improve the mental health of people suffering from a wide range of conditions, including the more serious. He explains, among other things, what happens to us when the brain is put under stress; why stress is associated with mental illness; why some people experience psychotic episodes and others don’t; what the difference is between being ‘stressed’ – which doesn’t feel good – and being ‘stretched’, which does. And why people on the autistic spectrum experience stress so intensely. You will also discover what people need to lead mentally and emotionally healthy lives – and what the best type of help is for anyone requiring psychotherapeutic interventions in order to recover quickly from stress overload, depression and anxiety disorders (including PTSD). And you will learn about a revolutionary new theory – described by some psychiatrists as “the only model on the table that explains the symptoms of schizophrenia” – which throws much-needed light on this distressing illness and explains why it has been virtually eliminated in communities where the correct approach to dealing with early onset of psychosis exists. The resulting psychotherapeutic human givens guidelines are already improving treatment – bringing important new hope to sufferers and those working with or caring for them. A different approach to the medical model – more humane and holistic, which is what is needed.OUTREACH & DEVELOPMENT WORKER (MENTAL HEALTH) What will you learn A better understanding of what ‘mental illness’ is The three reasons why all mental illnesses arise Why some stressed people – but not others – go on to experience psychotic symptoms (such as hallucinations, delusions and hearing voices) A richer understanding of the mind/body connection and its impact on our emotional and psychological health What increasing stress levels do to our brains and bodies Information about more effective treatment possibilities that are opening up for clinical psychology, psychotherapy and counselling A moving insight into Asperger’s syndrome Why high functioning people with Asperger’s are easily stressed and cause stress in others What everyone needs to be mentally and emotionally healthy – and how to maintain that wellbeing Natural ways of reducing emotional arousal and avoiding stress overload The central role of emotions in our lives – and why taking it into account is essential for psychotherapy to be successful Knowledge of the APET™ model – which rapidly improves psychotherapeutic outcomes and interventions – and how to integrate it into your work Illuminating case histories The brain as a pattern-matching organ – and what this means for mental health and successful therapy A remarkable observation (shown on film) about the connection between stress, dreaming, depression and psychosis Includes: Course notes Accredited CPD certificate and much more… Counts towards a Diploma By taking this course, you could be on your way to completing Part 1 of the Human Givens Diploma – a flexible, part-time psychotherapy course which will deepen your psychological knowledge and increase your ability to help people effectively and quickly.
