Overview

Aromatherapy is a form of alternative medicine, an art and science of utilizing naturally extracted aromatic essences from flowers, bark, stems, leaves and roots. The practice promotes balance and harmonizes the health of the body, the mind, and the spirit.

Essential oils can be applied in different ways, such as in baths, aromatherapy massage, aromatherapy vapor inhalation, lotions, creams and salves, and compress.

The essential oils that aromatherapy uses come in many varieties, and each has its own effect when applied. It can be of healing, enhancing the mood, or increasing cognitive functions. These can also be blended together to achieve a certain purpose.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
