Overview

This therapeutic Hot Herbal Compress treatment is a traditional steamed poultice massage from Thailand. It helps to relieve stress as well as to increase energy flow, improve circulation, relax muscles and stimulate nerves. Hot compresses can be used to address chronic problems, such as back pain and stiff muscles by working along ‘sen’ lines in gentle rolling movements. They provide the same type of stimulation as acupressure, but can be used to stimulate tender or sensitive areas that cannot be massaged directly.

FAQs

Study method describes the format in which the course will be delivered. At Reed Courses, courses are delivered in a number of ways, including online courses, where the course content can be accessed online remotely, and classroom courses, where courses are delivered in person at a classroom venue.

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.
