Experts In Massage Pave The Way To Success

With increasing support for the benefits of holistic treatments, it is not surprising then that many large companies now invite holistic therapists into the workplace to administer treatments like Indian head massage.

It is with this in mind that the experts at The Beauty Academy are now offering a selection of specialist two-day beauty courses focussing on the administration and theory behind of Britain’s most favoured holistic treatments.

Beauty Courses available range from an extensive selection of one and two day diploma courses in holistic treatments including body massage, hot stone massage, Indian head massage, and reflexology.

Director at The Beauty Academy, Coral Hadley said, “One of our most important beauty courses is our programme in Swedish full body massage as it is an essential unit for those hoping to become a fully fledged beauty therapist”

Deriving from the ancient Greek word "massin" (to knead), the Arabic word "mass" and the Hebrew word "mashesh" (to press), this relaxation technique provides comfort to those suffering from muscular skeletal disorders or even work related stress.

The Beauty Academy not only provide their students with in depth knowledge of how to administer this treatment in line with the notoriously high industry standards, their comprehensive range of beauty courses equip each student with the essential tools for success. Each course features modules on client consultation, health and safety, preparation of the treatment room, posture analysis and even after care.

Not only do The Beauty Academy offer courses to suit complete beginners, beauty courses targeted at existing therapists wishing to add to their skills are also available.

Mrs Hadley added, “Our courses in full body massage appeal to people from all walks of life, but we do seem to get an influx of people attending who have been used to holding down a very stressful or high powered career and want something to counteract their past experiences. What always strikes me is that those who attend our beauty courses, often point out that it is just as relaxing to do the Swedish massage as it is to receive one.”

Don’t Be A Beauty School Drop-Out – Choose The Right Course For Your Career

Choosing the right beauty course can be mind - boggling at the best of times, and when it comes to your future, equipping yourself with the tools for success is essential. Ever heard the phrase ‘a workman should never blame his tools?’ well at the Beauty Academy they believe that success is modelled around having the right tools from the word go.

Director at The Beauty Academy, who offer a wide range of beauty courses in the South East and Midlands. Coral Hadley said, “It is hard when choosing a beauty course whether you are looking to begin the education process early on or later in life, feelings of anxiety can creep in and students often worry that they will not like the course or even worse that they are not studying topics high up on their own personal agenda.”

When choosing the right beauty course it is essential that you visit any open days that the beauty school has to offer, that way you can become accustomed with the building, teachers and one must never under estimate the power of first impressions, it has often said that gut feelings are not to be sniffed at!

“Mrs Hadley added, “A lot of our students have held down very different careers in the past and fancy something a bit different, many find that a career in beauty is very rewarding and allows them to use their creative tendencies to great effect. For many of our mature students, course flexibility is an important factor as many of them have families to support.”

Convenience and flexibility are both important factors to consider when signing up to one of the many beauty courses around and for the more mature student, it may be a case of fitting studying around a jam-packed family life or around a part-time job. At The Beauty Academy, they have a wide range of beauty courses specific to the needs to students such as these, providing them with distance learning. Each of their home study can be completed in your own time from home, making this a flexible way to learn, and what’s more,most of their courses can be completed within a few weeks.

Mrs Hadley added, “Our courses are written by experienced beauty therapy lecturers who are available to give you advice and guidance during your training and they are extremely easy to follow. Each beauty course available on a home study option has numerous diagrams and a full treatment DVD to help you to learn quickly and efficiently”.

Following the successful completion of your course, a certificate is awarded to you as proof that you have obtained these necessary skills and this can be taken to interviews as evidence of your qualifications.

One of the major downfalls students experience when choosing a course is when assumptions are made with regards to what the course entails. It is advised to make sure you have all the information at hand before making such a major decision, it is surprising how many students expect a certain topic to be covered and are then utterly disappointed when it fails to come up.

Mrs Hadley added, “It is necessary that students get in contact with the course leaders with any queries that they may have, at The Beauty Academy, we love to hear from students and often we can put their minds at rest very quickly, we work on the idea that if you don’t ask you will never know.”

Educate Yourself for a Future of Beauty

Enrolling on a beauty course is an exciting and exhilarating prospect to many who desire to expand their horizons, learn new skills, and perhaps change career. However, to begin a stroll down a new path in life is often a daunting idea to even the most daring of risk takers.

How can we be sure this is the right path? Will we wander too far only to become lost, with the way back now miles of winding roads in the distance? This is where the ingenuity of affordable at home learning courses begins to shine. Highly established and respected beauty school, The Beauty Academy, fully understand the importance of choice and flexibility with regards to adult learning and beauty training.

Convenience combined with affordable costs ensures that students at The Beauty Academy can dip their toes in the water of beauty courses before they decide if crossing the ocean is for them.

Coral Hadley, the Director of The Beauty Academy, said, “We understand that not all our prospective students are fortunate enough to have the time to enrol on an attendance beauty course, where fixed schedules, family commitments and issues with travel may build walls which prevent students from fulfilling their dreams. Therefore our fantastic team of lecturers have tailor made an extensive selection of at home beauty courses that allow students to learn all their desired skills at a time and pace that suits them.”

She added, “Our many home courses offer a large variety of different skills, so students have the choice to study only those arts that they wish to learn, rather than enrolling on one, expensive beauty course. Furthermore, most of these courses are separated into modules so students who already possess skills in the field of which they wish to learn, can pick and choose what they need to further their abilities.”

This ‘pick and choose’ way of studying excels The Beauty Academy as a premier choice for beauty training as it is such a cost-effective method of learning. The first modules of The Beauty Academy’s courses are of nominal value at £25, and any other modules you may wish to complete vary in price of £30-£105, with the majority costing around £50.

The beauty courses are all thoroughly complete and simple to follow, with many demonstrative diagrams and a training DVD included. If questions arise or you encounter any problems The Beauty Academy have a team of experienced lecturers on hand to provide help and guidance. On completion of your beauty course you will receive a certificate as proof of your new skill and if you wish to attain a recognised qualification The Beauty Academy Diploma can be obtained after a practical assessment.

New Skills at Nail Saving Prices Thanks To The Beauty Academy

Cold winter months may mean wrapping up tight in your coat, hat and gloves. But this is no excuse for neglecting your beauty routine and giving into the temptation to spend now until March under the safety of your duvet.

Life doesn’t stop. And neither do the excellent beauty courses taught all year round at The Beauty Academy.

And with excellent offers throughout November and December, there’s also no excuse for not returning to school, beauty school that is. A selection of their most comprehensive courses will see you through with a free kit, providing everything you will need for the duration of your beauty course and after, worth up to £187.50.

A skill for bringing out beauty is one that will induce a lifetime of pleasure. To see a smile as they peer in the mirror, and know that it was you that made them happy inside is an unbeatable feeling. And as long as your hands stay steady, your nails stay spotless; so long as you’re enrolled on one of The Beauty Academy’s nail treatment courses.

With the popularity of nail polish, extensions and art at an incredible high, the present day is as great as any for jumping upon the beauty wagon and learning the skill you always had to pay for (or do yourself with debatable results).

Be an indispensable friend for those pre-party preparations. Change your career. Begin your own business.

The options are open and for you to choose.

People seeking qualified nail technicians are widespread across the world; with work in salons, health spas and cruise ships highlighting only a small number of the opportunities available. From a casual hobby to owning your business, nail courses can turn all manner of fabulous fantasies into realities.

Dedicated to ensuring every penny spent by their students is one spent well, the nail courses on offer at The Beauty Academy will not leave you lost in a countless wash of colourful talons. With classes containing no more than six, you can be reassured that your every need will be nurtured and every question answered.

With nail technician courses varying in duration from a half day out, to an intensive five days painting fingers and toes, a course is tailored to suit every level of skill and ambition.

Like pens and pencils in the classroom, particular equipment is necessary for the study of almost any new skill, and enrolling on a nail course is pointless if your handbag is lined with only your phone, money and make-up.

Fully understanding that many of their students are new to the trade, The Beauty Academy sell a sizable selection of Starter Kits at wholesale prices. And if you simultaneously order your kit and your course, they will give a further 5 percent discount on the already terrifically tantalising prices; meaning that extending your knowledge with a nail treatment course is even more of an incredible financial investment.

Relax with Reflexology

The crisp cold of British winter coupled with the stress of coping with Christmas obligations can leave many of us crying out for a non-alcoholic, non-chemical solution to winter tension levels.

The top teachers at renowned beauty training school, The Beauty Academy, are experts in all from nail extensions to Ear Candle Therapy; but the Christmas crisis that many of us experience year after year has led The Beauty Academy to emphasise the benefits reaped from relaxation therapies such as Indian Head Massage and in particular, Reflexology.

Whether embarking on a new career or simply desiring the knowledge and ability of a valuable new skill, a qualification in reflexology will truly make the sun shine over your winter whilst simultaneously brightening your CV and ensuring it stand’s far out front in a crowd.

Requiring completion of either a body massage course or a good knowledge of anatomy and physiology, Reflexology is not a beauty course for the absolute beginner. However, learning the art of massage is quick and cost-effective if completed with The Beauty Academy, and the rewards are sublime, particularly during the precious winter evenings snuggled in front of the fire with your partner.

The roots of reflexology are, according to interpretations made of ancient cave paintings, believed to have been planted in Egypt.

This art of relaxation is based upon the principle and renowned belief that every working system and organ of the human body is linked to corresponding ‘hotspots’ within the feet.

A reflexology practitioner, or reflexologist, uses light, accurate pressure to massage each of these hotspots and release inner tension, subsequently promoting healing of both the body and mind and helping to relieve a multitude of stress-aggravated disorders.

Unfortunately the licensing regulations surrounding many forms of beauty therapy in Britain allow unqualified beauty ‘therapists’ to practice, including ‘reflexologists’. That is why, on completion of any beauty course embarked upon at The Beauty Academy, graduates receive The Beauty Academy Diploma. As well as its presence existing as a reassuring tool for hesitant friends or clients, the renowned high standards of the beauty courses at The Beauty Academy allow ex-students to receive very competitive rates of insurance at a number of acutely respectable companies.

About The Beauty Academy:

The Beauty Academy are a well established adult beauty school running an extensive list of beauty courses and beauty training programmes available both as attendance and home study courses.

All beauty courses at The Beauty Academy are approved by both the Guild of Professional Beauty Therapists and BABTAC. Training is available in Birmingham, Cambridge, Dartford, Harlow, London and Milton Keynes, with a limited selection of courses also being taught in Guildford.
