Happy New Year to you! I do hope you had a great Christmas and you are managing to keep warm in this very cold weather.
After a fantastic two week break from work, I am now back and raring to go. It has reminded me how important having time out is and I have now added this to my new years resolutions :-)
I will be making several changes over the next few months, including new training courses, new treatments, lots of special offers, blogs & discussions, accrediting courses with additional training bodies and welcoming on board tutors to offer training courses on behalf of Holistic Therapies Training.
Training is currently available from two sites based in Swindon, as well as on site training for your convenience. (travel costs may apply.)
Please do not hesitate to contact me should you require assistance at all.
If you know anyone who may be interested in joining this group, please pass this on.
Look forward to hearing from you very soon.
Love & Warm Wishes,
Karen Kilminster

I enjoyed my enriching learning experience immensely with Nikki! Nikki has such a remarkable blend of subject matter expertise, personal warmth, sincerity, professionalism, and kindness. I would recommend her to my colleagues and clients without hesitation! It is difficult to say which aspect of the course I liked the most…as it was all impressive…Sure she exceeded my expectations on the techniques of delivering IHM, of which, My clients will be most pleased to receive…however, coupled with that,Nikki’s teaching methodology is so sincere that it emanates in the flow of her touch and instructions…this is priceless to me! There are no improvements that I would suggest for the course.
Thanks for having me on such short notice! Marie R

Just thought I would drop you a quick line to say how much I enjoyed both the Swedish Massage course and the Thai Foot Massage course. Both courses were run by Karen Kilminster over in Swindon. Karen is a great teacher, full of enthusiasm and her style of teaching is both clear and thorough. I came away feeling confident and capable of applying both forms of massage in to the daily routine of my own clinic. I had two great days! Really enjoyable..I will be in touch a bit later on since I am interested in doing the Hot Stone Massage Course. Of course with the same teacher ... many many thanks to Karen. Kind Regards to you, T Ashcroft
I am really doing well practising my Swedish Massage and having great fun with it ...my clients are loving it too. Such a great day and am looking forward to the Thai Foot Course. Tamara A

Just a quick email to say thanks for the excellent course, it was well run and both myself and Deb really enjoyed it. Deb especially would like to thank you for putting her at total ease as she was quite nervous beforehand. As I felt you presented the course in a easy to learn and understanding fashion I would very much like to book another course with you very soon..even if I do have to travel to the other side of the country. Darren I

I really enjoyed the course. Karen was the ideal tutor. She had a very calming and soothing nature. The way she taught was easy to understand and to follow. Nothing was too much trouble and I never felt embarassed by asking what came next on the routine. She was very patient. Julia D Karen was a great teacher, she made it fun as well as a learning day. Karina F
The course went very well and Karen is a fantastic teacher and a lovely lady. I enjoyed learning and performing the treatment. I am very pleased to add this to the list of therapies I can offer as treatments for my clients. Many Thanks
Sally M
I would like to say the course with Karen was very enjoyable,I have never had a one to one lesson before and was pleased with the content and professional approach.It was also helpful to have the DVD playing alongside the lesson,I would certainly choose this method again
Paul A
Re: Hopi Ear training with Karen. Karen made me feel welcomed and at ease. She was able to answer any questions I had at the time and thereafter. She was thorough in the information she was telling me and in the written work. I also found that she explained the information practical and written in different ways, IE: written and picture format which would meet individuals learning styles. Karen was also patient and would go over anything you felt you didn't grasp initially. Michelle L
It was great to have one on one education today which was to my advantage. I thought the dvd was a great help to watch the moves whilst doing them personally.
Narelle M
I thoroughly enjoyed the Indian Head Massage course with Karen. Have done other courses with other trainers and Karen gave an excellent lesson, practical and theory and her surroundings were lovely and welcoming. A great day of learning..!
Nikki A
I undertook Manicure training with Karen, who is a very kind and helpful tutor. The training schedule was arranged to suit me and took place in the evenings as I work full time. Karen immediately put me at ease and the tutorials took place in a very relaxed atmosphere, but with care and attention to detail. There were lots of handy tips and techniques offered up that were not in the manual and Karen has stayed in touch offering up help and advice since I completed by course.
Sue K
I have completed several Holistic Massage courses with Karen and have found them all to be very informative and exactly what i need to take my business forward. All have been broken down into several sessions to allow me to go away and practice the skills i was taught. Much better than doing a one day course. Karen has a professional but friendly and relaxed approach to the training, which made the course very enjoyable. Thanks and looking forward to my next ones" Erica S
