Behind every course at Holistic Hands of Purbeck Training Academy is a genuine passion for raising standards, sharing knowledge and helping therapists build careers they can be proud of.

I am Naomi Spencer, founder of Holistic Hands of Purbeck and Holistic Hands of Purbeck Training Academy. I am a multi-award-winning therapist, qualified educator, holistic practitioner, Reiki Master, business owner and therapist mentor, with extensive hands-on experience working with clients and supporting other therapists within our industry.
What makes my teaching different is that I am still very much a working therapist. I understand the realities of the treatment room because I am in it every week. The techniques and knowledge I teach are grounded in genuine client experience and the high standards of care I expect within my own salon.
Education with heart, professional standards and real-world experience.
