So this just happened!! 6 months of hard work to get this diploma accredited. If you want to know more, contact Janine at info@lymphaeumeducation.com

This course is fully insurable to work with post surgical, lymphoedema and lipoedema clients. It is a blended learning course with online modules and 3 days in person training in Darwen, Lancashire. That is followed by 6-8 weeks of online zooms whilst you complete case studies.

This has been a passion of mine, a lipoedema warrior myself. I’ve worked with post surgical clients for nearly 9 years and I’ve poured all my knowledge and understanding into the course so that therapist feel confident in treating these pathologies and conditions.

The first course is due to run on 9th Feb 2026 but you will be able to start the online section from December 2025.

Come and have a chat if you think this might be just what you’re looking for to boost your clinic and support your clients.

A few exciting updates, JC Holistics Training was always kind of a holding name whilst I worked out what I wanted this part of the company to be called.

We are now called Lymphaeum Education.

Why?

Lympha (Latin) – means clear water, spring, and is also the root for the word lymph, which refers to the clear fluid circulating in the lymphatic system.

aeum (Latin suffix) – commonly used in classical architecture to describe places (e.g., museum, gymnasium, aquaerium). It gives the sense of a space, sanctuary, or institution.

Our new training room based in JC Holistics, Darwen will be a sanctuary and institution to learn all about Massage, Lymph and Holistic Therapies

Stay tuned for more exciting news….

Just as the return of the sun has brought the welcome arrival of fresh greenery and flowers in the hedgerows, we at Open Door Holistics are also tending the seeds and shoots of our exciting plans for this summer and the future!

We are Kate & Janine, two passionate massage therapists who absolutely love what we do! With open hearts and an open door, we are so lucky to be able to share this knowledge and passion with you. Whether you’re just getting started in your therapeutic career, looking to top up your knowledge with CPD courses or are joining us at one of our workshops.

Janine has been a holistic therapist for over a decade. Since 2006 she has been developing her natural healing abilities with reiki, going on to train in fusion massage which brings together the teachings of eastern and western bodywork to provide effective treatment of tension and chronic pain. Janine is skilled in lymphatic drainage and oncology massage which is effective in the treatment of painful lymphoedema symptoms and swelling, and aids healing following liposuction and illness. She is passionate about reflexology and the balancing effect that it has on the body. This is just a snippet of her skills and you can find out more about her work at JC Holistics.
Out of the therapy room Janine is well equipped with over 20 years experience in teaching, management and leadership, her passion for sharing knowledge in an easy to understand way makes her an excellent person to guide you through your training here. She also happens to be absolutely lovely!

Kate has had a varied working life, including labouring for a groundworks team, dog grooming, even creating and running an award winning micropub with her husband. Holistically she has often found herself in caring roles and has always massaged but didn’t turn it into her career until 2016 after caring for her grandfather brought home the effects of massage in both relieving oedema in his ankles and his mental wellbeing.
Starting her training in Swedish massage, Reflexology and Aromatherapy. Having always used essential oils in her personal life there was a natural progression into creating creams, oils and treatments to benefit clients both on the massage table and in daily life. Kate has gone on to study Advanced Clinical Massage at Jing in Brighton. A course that has deepened her knowledge immeasurably, developing her massage practice blending east and west to help get her clients out of pain and moving again. Her development continues with studying the BTEC 6 also at Jing.
Her love of her vocation bubbles over, making her a natural and enthusiastic teacher.
