Practitioner Level Diploma
Sound Therapy Training (Practitioner Level Diploma) – Distance Learning
A Practitioner helps their clients to discover how their current life/health situation impacts their wellbeing in a deeper and focused way. On this course you will learn how to choose the best instruments and techniques to support your clients and how to apply those techniques to suit their individual needs. You can also apply the techniques to groups. As well as having specific techniques, there is room for professional judgment and creativity – it is rare that any two treatments are exactly the same.
This course is perfect if you want an in-depth look in 1-2-1 sound therapy, a variety of instrument choices and to also be able to give group sound sessions.
A blended learning option with face to face modules is also available for this course if you prefer. Please request a prospectus for more information.
