London Therapists is recognised and accredited as a high-quality massage course and beauty course provider by some of the UK’s leading professional organisations, including BABTAC, The Beauty Guild, The Holistic Guild, IPTI and SHTC. Upon successful completion of your massage or beauty training course with us you will be awarded the London Therapists Diploma. This Diploma is well recognised and regarded within the industry and enables you to join professional associations and get insurance cover for your massage or beauty practice. Our winning combination of high quality training and small class sizes ensures a high graduation rate.
We always recommend that you become a member of at least one of these associations if you intend to practice professionally. This shows that you take your career as a massage or beauty therapist seriously, keeps you up to speed with new techniques and courses, and gives your clients confidence in your professionalism and expertise. In addition, make sure that any course you decide to take can offer you a nationally recognised qualification that will enable you to get insurance and practice professionally.
The Guild is offering graduates of our massage courses and beauty training courses £10 off their usual membership fee - just click here to take advantage of this great offer. Launched in 1994, the Beauty Guild and the Guild of Holistic Therapists are the UK's biggest professional beauty trade bodies. They have over 5,000 members who are all fully qualified beauty and holistic therapists. All members of the Guild work to a strict code of ethics.
BABTAC (the British Association of Beauty Therapy & Cosmetology) has been the professional face of beauty and holistic therapy for over 30 years. It is the premier UK and international association for beauticians and therapists and is widely recognised as one of the longest standing and most influential bodies for the industry. On application, potential members' qualifications are vetted to ensure they meet with national/international requirements, and all work to a rigorous code of ethics and accepted good practices - both in terms of the treatments and therapies they offer and the way they conduct their relationships with their clients.
IPTI (Independent Professional Therapists International) is a genuinely independent association formed to serve the needs of alternative and complementary therapists, health and fitness therapists and aestheticians throughout Great Britain. IPTI recognises the importance of a professional association to bring strength and purpose to the qualified therapist and provide a sense of belonging to a profession whose importance and value is being increasingly recognised.
SHTC (Society for Holistic Therapists and Coaches) exists to provide the General Public and Health Professionals with a body of regulated professionals, all qualified to accredited levels, and who all obey the appropriate NOS National Occupational Standards. All of their members have appropriate professional qualifications that are either directly accredited in their own right (e.g. NVQ's and Degrees), or are from QCA / SQA approved Awarding bodies. The SHTC is run independently from any College or Awarding Body, and therefore will accept all appropriately qualified therapists equally and fairly. "We exist to maintain standards, and not engage in industry politics."
