Check out what our past students have to say about the course:

‘Well what can I say apart from it was a fantastic course. I wanted a reputable course and when I conducted my research I came across your school. I total enjoyed my time studying aromatherapy massage and  holistic massage. There was lots to learn and understand,  however,  Dawn was at hand and no question was deemed a silly one. Dawn made each session easier to understand , having broken down the syllabus in to chuck size sessions. Dawn presented everything extremely well. There was plenty of interaction between colleagues, each learning off each other and  we had plenty of time to practice massage and sort out queries It was fun, even though we had lots of work to get through. Friendships were made, we supported/ help each other. Totally enjoyed myself. Nothing to lose its all there for the taking – a comprehensive professionally present course.’ – Natalie

My granddaughter attended a 7 - 11 year old bath bomb making session today and was very nervous of going in. Honey, Chantelle and Mira spent a good 45 minutes of their time encouraging her in the kindest ways, it was way over and above what you would expect and I can only praise their patience and understanding.

I’ve just finished my beauty course at NSHB, and I honestly can’t thank everyone enough. From the moment I started, I’ve felt so welcomed and supported. The tutors have been amazing they’re so knowledgeable, patient, and always took the time to help whenever I needed it. They’ve really helped me grow in confidence and taught me so much. I also want to give a big thank you to the office team. They’ve always been so friendly, kind, and helpful with anything I needed, whether it was answering questions, sorting paperwork, or just being there to support us would highly recommend !!
