to train or not!

[cjlrodbe]

Hi
I am considering doing aromatherapy to go along side my reflexology. (maternity shiatsu/reiki/ear candling too). I have not trained in massage although happy with body work for aromatherapy massage. I am a full time midwfe so do not rely on holistics wholy for financial gain, however, my intentions for learning are to incorporate into reflex and for making creams and potions suitable for clients needs, ie to support their reflex tx etc. It will be a secondary qualification, do you think its worthwhile doing?
Thanks

Oh yes, most definitely, I hadn't done any massage but still did Aromatherapy, then I did Swedish massage the year after, I'm so glad as they have cancelled the Aroma course now.

Thanks Joanna, thanks for replying.
It appears that many colleges are stopping doing aromatherapy etc as single subjects, tending to bulk them together for a general qualification. This was the same at the one i have aplied to but have now decided to run as an individual subject

Oh really, that's a shame, there is so much to learn within Aroma too. When does it start ?

Enrolment is Wednesday night! starts 7th September! so not long to wait. I feel i need to get in now or lose the opportunity and it helps as another reflexologist is also doing it too
