Course Details:

This is an ideal add-on course for those working in the area of complimentary/alternative health and fitness as it gives instruction to see signs and symptoms of a possible health imbalance that perhaps even their clients are possibly not aware of.

Conventional medicine is regularly accused of treating the symptom but never the person. Unfortunately this is often the case resulting in only a temporary period of recovery ensuing. Modern holistic practitioners stress we must look at the whole health of a person - physically, mentally, emotionally and even spiritually.

This means that time must be taken with a client to explore all possibilities and time is something that present-day conventional medical practitioners seem to have less of. This excellent course offers you the basis of applying and using a great a variety of appropriate diagnostic techniques.

Specific topics covered in the course include:

  • Confidentiality and legal obligations.
  • The consultation.
  • Diagnosis.
  • Orthodox techniques.
  • Assessment of health and fitness.
  • Diagnostic techniques using nails, skin, tongue, posture and pulse, etc.
  • Hair analysis.
  • When to refer and how to refer.
  • A look at some therapies Client information.
  • Patient symptoms and likely conditions.
  • Creating the right environment.

Optional:

Personality/Intelligence Test

All our students have the option to take this revealing test for an additional cost of €25.00.

The test asks questions to determine:

  • Are you a 'Take-Charge' type?
     
  • Are you a manipulative person?
     
  • Are you a real friend when the going gets rough?
     
  • How popular are you?
     
  • Could you be your own boss?
     
  • What’s your leadership potential?

The objective is not only to help you achieve greater personal and professional success – but to show you how to get what you really want out of life.

Management/Leadership Skills Test

All students of this course have the option to take a Management/Leadership Test for an additional cost of €35.00. This test is conducted on our behalf by Verax international. This test has to be taken on line and the results will be sent directly to each student by email usually within 3/4 working days.

The test will allow you to assess your own performance against 16 key management/leader competencies - such as customer focus, decision making, creativity and team working - which are valued by employers and which are very important for effective performance as a manager or team leader. There is one test for managers in the public sector and a separate test for all other managers. Depending on which version chosen, your performance is benchmarked either against 15,000 or so managers in the database or against public sector managers only.

In summary, this unique test will show you what to stop doing (or do less of) and what to start doing (or do more of) in order to become more effective in your current role/activity. In effect, you are told what you need to do to become a more effective manager and team leader and most important of all, how to do it.
