Complementary Medicine

Complementary Medicine is receiving more and more media coverage and is increasingly being seen as part of mainstream healthcare.

Our courses at TVU were developed in line with the House of Lords report and its recommendations to the government for training and education in this area.

We provide a range of courses:

foundation degrees
undergraduate degrees
supported distance learning courses
postgraduate study (all have a strong science underpin).

Some of the subjects on offer include:

aromatherapy
reflexology
nutritional medicine
homeopathy
autogenic training
shiatsu massage.

Our courses provide the opportunity for our students to embark on a career within healthcare and equips them to develop their own clinical practice.

Our staff are research active and committed to building the evidence base for complementary medicine.

Our current research courses cover the areas of:

cancer
children
stress
primary care
HIV.
