ABOUT THE PAT KI COURSE IN EQUINE AROMATICS

I have used around 80 aromatics myself and my approach is based on my experience and the small amount of scientific evidence available, rather than what has been passed down by aromatherapy authors since the 1960s. Many of my graduates have worked with dogs as well and had success treating e.g. skin complaints, travel sickness and infertility

The Programme
Students will attend 8 days of theory and practical, undertake intensive home study and present a specified number of treatments with photographic, video or DVD evidence. They will also be required to present detailed files on Anatomy & Physiology, Aromatics, Kinesiology and Business Theory exams.
