Eating &Living

Had and provided ongoing support even after the course had finished. I highly recommend the holistic massage course at Eating & Living.

Eating & Living is a holistic health training school located in the picturesque town of Barnard Castle, County Durham. Nicky Morse, a self-employed Naturopath and PTLLS Tutor, has over 25 years of experience in the field, specialising in ladies' health and well-being. Her focus is on promoting health and wellness through exercise, nutrition, and relaxation workshops.

At Eating & Living, the aim is to provide holistic support to each client, addressing their physical and mental health needs. Nicky's passion lies in ensuring that every person who seeks treatment feels cared for, heard, and supported in finding the root cause of their concerns.

The training courses offered at Eating & Living are designed to cater to individual needs, rejecting a one-size-fits-all approach. The flagship course, the Diploma in Holistic Massage, is recognised by the Complimentary Medical Association and insured through Balens Insurance Company. Prior to enrolling in this course, students must hold an up-to-date Anatomy and Physiology diploma.

The practical training for the Diploma in Holistic Massage lasts for four days and can be taken on Wednesdays or weekends. It covers all aspects of holistic massage, including techniques, personal care, client support, treatment procedures, and legal requirements. In addition to the 26 hours of in-person training, students are expected to complete 7 hours of reading, 5 hours of video viewing, and 10 hours of homework. Online support is available for a minimum of 2 hours.

Included in the course are a course bag with an oil holster, a course manual, and a massage tool. Lunch and refreshments are provided during training sessions. After completing the course, students receive support in setting up their own business and have the option to join the Eating & Living Therapist Support Network for continuous training and guidance.

In addition to the Diploma in Holistic Massage, Eating & Living also offers a Hot Stone Certificate course. This one-day course is specifically designed for qualified therapists and focuses on the use of hot and cold stone massage therapy. The course is insured through Balens Insurance Company.
