"Develop your abilities to heal through touching"
The Advanced Diploma in Complementary Medicine (Remedial Therapies) is studied in conjunction with Health Schools Australia.

Part A is undertaken with ACS and Part B is Undertaken with Health Schools Australia. Both parts can be fully completed through distance learning.

Health Schools Australia is accredited by Australian Traditional Medicine Society (A.T.M.S.) , National Herbalist Association of Australia (N.H.A.A.) , IARC and Queensland Association of Massage Therapists.
One of the basic and primal human needs is for touch. Through touch we receive and give love, healing, acknowledgement, tenderness, energy and happiness. As our skin covers the entire body, it is the largest organ through which we perceive the world. The soothing, skillful hands of a well trained practitioner can thus reconnect us with the world, with sensations and feelings of love, care and happiness.
