Professional Training Clinic

To prepare students for their future as a professional natural therapist, the College runs a training clinic (student clinic). The clinical training offered by the College is run both at the Prema Clinic as well as the main campus.

This allows for a thorough grounding in all aspects of clinical practice using a variety of treatments including: Naturopathy, Iridology, Nutritional Counselling, Herbal Medicine, Therapeutic and Sport Massage, Aromatherapy, Ayurvedic Medicine, Ayurvedic Massage & Panchakarma treatment, Reflexology, Yoga Therapy and Homeopathy.

Many students find that the clinical training is the most meaningful part of their programme, where the theoretical knowledge is translated into practical skills.
