While I am already in the Health industry in another field, I found this course added a more in-depth perspective to health from a cellular point of view and clearly linked the importance of nutrition and the incidence of chronic disease. I also found the on- line accessibility user friendly. Emma Rubio, Health Coach Spain I studied the Health and Nutrition certificate first with the Plaskett College to see if what it was taught matched my believes. At the end of that certificate I decided to pursue my studies with Plaskett college to become a Nutritional therapist. For that, I am studying Nutritional medicine and Iridology. During the Health & Nutrition certificate I learnt already about supplements. Now I know which type is best and most absorbable by our body, and the combinations to keep minerals in balance. Thus, I am more confident when I choose supplements for me and my family. I liked that the founder Dr. Plaskett was a doctor in Biochemistry. My background is in science and I wanted to study both the biochemical and the holistic sides of nutrition. I am happy to have a mentor to answer my doubts, and get my assignments reviewed. I like the flexibility they gave me to complete my first certificate. I love the subjects and the way is explained. Catherine Rogers Henley-On-Thames, UK I have found this course extremely enjoyable, user friendly and insightful. The information covered throughout the course was up to date and provided a holistic approach, educating students on nutrition at multiple levels. I found the content of the course easy to read and understand but also challenging when it needed to be. For someone with no prior knowledge of nutrition it was perfect yet was still applicable to student who had prior knowledge on the subjects covered. The course started with the basics to improve your base level understanding and built up the course week by week. Material was extremely user friendly. Materials could be studied through the course book provided or downloaded which was extremely useful for traveling! The tutors provided fantastic feedback. They explained when I got things wrong and were always happy to help. Their contact time was great too. I have thoroughly enjoyed this course on so many levels and I would recommend it to

Osteopathy Course

3.5(2)

By Elearncollege

Description Osteopathy Diploma  Osteopathy treats medical disorders by manipulating and massaging muscles, bones, and joints. It is rooted in the belief that a person's health is determined by how well their muscles, bones, ligaments, & connective tissue work together. Osteopathic physicians employ several methods but do not rely on medicines or surgeries. Osteopathy was developed over a century back as a non-drug and non-surgical alternative to medications and surgery. Root causes are still unaddressed even today, making people sicker. Osteopathy was founded in 1874 by a physician & surgeon to treat the human body without harming it. When the paradigm shifted over a century later, the basic ideas were refined, and the health innovators provided new ideas. The new notion considered the body an intelligent organisation of consciousness rather than a machine. It is a healthcare profession that focuses on the identification, treatment, prevention, & recovery of musculoskeletal problems & the impact these disorders have on patients' overall health. Osteopaths strive to restore body functions without using medicines or any surgical procedures. Osteopathy treats and prevents disease by strengthening the musculoskeletal systems. Osteopaths use a patient-centred approach, which means they assess symptoms based on the medical history, lifestyle, & personal situations of the patient. This holistic view guarantees that each patient's treatment is adapted to their specific needs. Osteopathy Diploma will help students learn how to connect with that consciousness & let it control their healing. Elearncollege's new and revised Osteopathy Diploma will provide an enhanced format. Osteopathy is a fascinating profession where you can utilise various therapeutic approaches & interventions to fulfil patients' specific needs and requirements. This Osteopathy Diploma will provide you with an overview of osteopathic treatment and a solid foundation for future osteopathic studies and research. The fundamental goal of this Osteopathy diploma programme is to cater to structured study opportunities so that you can gain a basic understanding of the field. Osteopathic treatments are chosen depending on the needs of the individuals and their symptoms. These techniques vary from gentle techniques, for infants, those with joint-related medical issues, and the elderly, to more intense plans for healthy adult patients. Osteopathy treatments ease symptoms, enhance movement and facilitate blood flow. These treatments are not painful, but it is common to feel uncomfortable in the days following treatment, especially if you're getting therapy for an inflamed or painful injury. With expertise and studies in the field of Osteopathy, you can open your clinic or work in a hospital. You might also go into teaching or specialising in some areas, such as treating children, professional athletes, or animals. Established osteopathy practitioners in the United Kingdom make £45,000 annually, with 11 per cent earning over £100,000. Please contact the General Osteopathic Council for information about licensing requirements for practicing in the UK.

By Human Givens College

Help with chronic pain – learn the powerful psychological and behavioural techniques that alleviate persistent pain and accelerate healing with pain specialist Dr Grahame Brown Accredited CPD Certificate: 6 hours Length: 1 day (9.30am - 4.00pm GMT) Fantastic to have the opportunity to train with this specialist. Thoroughly enjoyed this online course – the best I have attended...CLINCIAL HYPNOTHERAPIST Live online training – Join Dr Grahame Brown on Wednesday 24th April 2024 for this practical live online training event via Zoom, you will have plenty of opportunities to ask questions. Simply book your place and we will email you the Zoom link the day before the event. BONUS RECORDING – the training is recorded, in case anyone experiences technical difficulties on the day, so you will also get a recording for a limited time afterwards to maximise your learning. Can’t make this date?  Register your interest and we’ll let you know when there’s another. Why you should attend Pain is endemic in our society and whatever the cause – back pain, migraine, arthritic pain, dental pain, irritable bowel (IBS), labour/menstrual pain, cancer pain, psychogenic pain, psychosomatic pain – it can be incapacitating. Chronic pain is any pain which lasts for more than three months and it is estimated that between 25–40% of our population suffer from persistent or chronic pain. The sociological and economic costs of this are enormous but it is in the personal human suffering involved – mental as well as physical – that the real costs should be measured. Many are desperate for effective help to relieve their pain and the associated effects, such as insomnia and depression. This online workshop – with leading pain and musculoskeletal medicine consultant Dr Grahame Brown – gives you important new information about how we experience pain – derived from the latest neuroscience – and a powerful range of psychological techniques for managing pain naturally, preventing it from escalating and speeding up healing. You will discover how people can be helped out of the vicious cycle of chronic pain and how, by working holistically through the bio-psycho-social model, suffering can be dramatically reduced. You don’t need to have any prior medical knowledge to learn from and enjoy the day – you will leave with a much clearer understanding of what is going on in the mind/body system, what you can do to reduce suffering when pain persists and ways to prevent chronic ongoing pain from developing. It is a key event if you work with people suffering from pain at any stage (from recent onset, recurrent to persistent) or if you would like to find out how to successfully manage pain without medication. You will learn a wide variety of pain management techniques, which can easily be integrated into your work, to help relieve pain and promote recovery – often in just one session. Dr Grahame Brown has a real gift for helping people heal themselves – I know: I’m one of them!CHRISTOPHER BUCKLEY, PROFESSOR OF RHEUMATOLOGY, UNIVERSITY OF BIRMINGHAM What will you learn An increased understanding of how we perceive pain (from the latest neuroscientific research) and what is happening in the mind/body system A road map for helping people out of the vicious cycle of chronic pain, or to stop it developing in the first place The confidence and skills to help patients suffering from persistent pain of whatever cause – no need to feel ‘heart-sink’ with some patients anymore An understanding of what is going on when pain persists – and what you can do about it How to reduce the risk of chronic pain developing – prevention is better than cure – and identify the factors that make it likely A range of psychological chronic pain management techniques to use with your patients or yourself The importance of the bio-psycho-social model in reducing pain and accelerating healing How to produce significant pain relief by changing the way people think about their pain – in minutes An understanding of the value of pain displacement and how to use the brain’s ‘reality simulator’ What the latest neuroscience tell us about the experience of pain How to use guided imagery, relaxation and distraction to promote chronic pain relief How to deal with constant pain and promote healing How healthcare professionals can make their consultations more therapeutic How to avoid labelling patients’ pain as ‘purely psychological’ The many myths about pain – and why some well-intentioned pain management techniques don’t work and more… No prior medical knowledge is needed for you to benefit from the day. Course Programme The ‘Effective Pain Management’ live online course starts at 9.15am and runs until 4.00pm. (GMT). 9.15am Join the Zoom meeting 9.30am Understanding pain 11.00am Comfort break and discussion 11.30am Assessing a person with persistent pain 1.00pm Lunch break 1.45pm Psychological & Behavioural treatment interventions 2.45pm Comfort break and discussion 3.00pm Practical demonstration of interventions 4.00pm Day ends Who is this course suitable for?
