Course Description
Distance learning course of 18 Lessons
The Orientals look at a person as a whole - body, mind, spirit and emotions - as a whole interactive, fully functioning unit and a diagnosis is made accordingly.
This study programme looks at how the Oriental approach aims at treating the cause of the condition thereby alleviating and clearing away the symptoms, thus it can be regarded as a true form of preventative medicine. A fascinating course that will also teach the student that eastern medicine is more in the mode of the Einsteinian paradigm which sees human beings as networks of complex energy fields that interface with physical and cellular systems. A wide range of oriental traditional therapies covered in this course gives the student a wealth of knowledge at their fingertips.
Tutor Support
With this course you will have unlimited access to your own personal tutor who specialises in their field of study. It is your personal tutor's role to ensure that you receive constructive feedback and to deal with any queries you may have. You are more than welcome to telephone, fax or email your personal tutor.
You will also have access to a dedicated and friendly team of administrators and course advisors who offer sound and professional guidance and advice when you need it. This ensures that you will never feel neglected and that you will always succeed!
Assessment Method
After each lesson there will be a question paper, which needs to be completed and submitted to your personal tutor for marking. This method of continual assessment ensures that your personal tutor can consistently monitor your progress and provide you with assistance throughout the duration of the course.
