Certificate in Complementary Studies (Herbalism)
Our Level 4 Certificate in Complementary Studies (Herbalism), validated by The Open university, provides a comprehensive foundation education and training in the principles and practice of clinical herbalism. Full-time and Part-time study options are available.
This incorporates the ‘energetic’ understanding of the cause of illness and the therapeutic actions of medicinal plants as well as the orthodox disciplines of Anatomy and Physiology.
It is integrative in approach, linking traditional herbal medicine with modern science and holism.
Our teaching methods include a rich mixture of theoretical study, reflection, the use of intuition and practical experience including professional practice in our on-site Complementary Medicine Clinic.
Our aim is to enable graduates to progress to the full degree to become a competent and confident practitioner of clinical herbalism. It does not equip students fully for independent clinical practice.
