Government-accredited diploma and advanced diploma courses in complementary health and transpersonal therapies. Training natural health practitioners for over 20 years. We offer comprehensive programs in Kinesiology, Mind Body Medicine, Integrative Complementary Medicine, and Transpersonal Therapy, plus short courses and free discovery sessions.

We mentor people looking to add purpose and meaning to their lives through a career in Complementary Medicine, Art Therapy and Counselling, by delivering heart-centred and professional vocational training.

Why Choose the College of Complementary Medicine?
Each person that comes to study with us has their own unique story, talents and abilities. We seek to inspire them to embrace these unique qualities in their work with people. This is the key to them realising their potential as a practitioner. When their work reflects their deeper values it will be inspiring and they will inevitably be successful.

We have graduates working in many different community services organisations, in their own clinics and in integrative clinics with doctors and other health practitioners. Our courses open up a whole range of opportunities in the community, with some of our graduates organising charity programs in Kenya, receiving government funding for trauma programs in Australia and working with famous dance companies or professional cricket teams. This work is so needed in our society today.
