Full Spectrum is an integrative practitioner training course in Crystal Therapy and Energy Therapy. It explores the interface of science with traditional therapies from a soulful perspective, with a strong emphasis on intra-personal relationships. The course is delivered by four facilitators who have diverse therapeutic approaches, individual perspectives, and expertise.
During the course you will gain a deeper understanding of your personal journey, recognise your unique potential, and develop tools for working effectively, confidently, and safely with others.
We recognise the way people choose to learn has changed since the pandemic. From 2024 we are offering a hybrid course, with some elements as online and/or distant learning, in addition to in-person classes. Many modules are available without commitment to the entire course.
We are in the process of revising the course and will be offering modules as they become available. All modules attended count towards the practitioner diploma.
In-person classes are held in an 18th century cottage in the beautiful hamlet of Avon
cliff, overlooking the River Avon on the Wiltshire/Somerset border. Classes are small (6-8 students) with two or more facilitators co-presenting most subjects.
This intensive two-year course is amongst the most rigorous available. Previously taught over three years, we have condensed the course by increasing the frequency of classes, as well as integrating some elements.
Full Spectrum is accredited by the Association of Crystal Healing Organisations (ACHO).
