Should I start an IHM course next wk?

[leroybrugger]

Hi,

I've just sat my exams (mid March) for the ITEC Holistic Massage diploma and am waiting for the results. I've just come across the IHM course this morning at Bodybasics in Stratford East London which is a 3 day intensive course with a month in between and then the exam.

Bodybasics have said that they will let me do the course and take the exam but won't give me my IHM cert (if I pass!) until they have seen my A&P cert when it arrives.

I would like to do the IHM course (as I have some time off between working at the mo.)but I am worried that maybe I'm taking things too fast and should wait for my holistic massage results first???

I would love to hear from anyone that has been in this sort of situation before or what they think about Bodybasics.

Hi Joycie
I would ask the training school what they require you to do by way of assignments in your own time and, as long as you feel you can cope with that, I would go for it. If you were studying at college full time you would probably be doing several subject at once.

Good luck with the course, I am sure you will enjoy it, it's a wonderful therapy.

Best wishes
Jackie

Hi Joycie

I'm slightly confused by Bodybasic's comments because if you do an IHM course - like VTCT - it incorporates the A&P that is needed for for IHM and I would have thought that the Bodybasics course would provide the necessary A&P as well. Maybe worth checking that out with them.

Love

Hi Jackie and Sue,

I've checked with the college about the a&p and also the amount of coursework and have decided to sign up for the course next week.

Thanks very much for the advice. It's taken me a while to actually get going with my complementary health courses and I can't believe I stuck with an office job for 13 years and didn't them ages ago!!

love lots
