You will receive your training from a fully accredited and insured Guild Accredited Therapy Lecturer. Our aim is to ensure that you feel competent and confident in putting your new found skills into action straight away.  

​

The Knotted Tree Holistic venue is situated in Telford, close to bus routes and a twenty minute walk from the train station. There is car parking available at the establishment.  As a small Training School, offering massage and holistic therapy training, we offer classes in groups of up to 4, which ensures lots of individual attention.

​

High Standard Of Professional Training And Education

If you are looking for a course, we offer the popular Body Massage, Hot Stones Massage, Indian Head Massage, Energy Healing, Anatomy & Physiology, Professional Standards, Starting and Marketing Your Business, and many, many more.

​

We will be providing the practical element of your course and the theory will be completed online through GTi, before you come to us.  Upon booking we will provide you with a code which will allow you access to your online portal for you to complete the theory modules in your own time. Once the theory has been completed we will arrange suitable dates for your practical training. The courses are insurable and will allow you to work professionally with the public, and charge for your services, either working mobile, at home, or in a salon or clinic. When you pass both your theory and practical elements, you will be awarded a recognised qualification, which will allow you to obtain insurance to practice the skills you have learned.

​

Pre-Requisites & Enrolment Process for training with the guild, the following is required.

All GTi courses with a practical element require the Professional Standards for Therapists course to be completed first. This will only need to be completed once.

Once the course has been paid, you will be enrolled by the Training School and you will receive a link to take you to The Guild website www.beautyguild.com, where you will be able to register if you have not previously done any Guild Practical Training Course. If you have done GTi training previously, you will be required to log on to activate the course to your account.

The course modules will be accessible on completion of the Professional Standards for Therapists Course. Once the theory element of the course has been completed, you need to click through to the Training Centre to obtain the practical code before the training day, to complete the course.

​

Flexible Dates

Course dates are flexible and suitable for complete beginners, as well as experienced therapists who are looking to update their qualifications and skills or to bring new modalities into their business. Courses can be provided on weekdays & weekends here at The Knotted Tree Holistic Therapies establishment.
