The Guild was setup in 2015 with two aims. The first was to provide a network for therapists in the Mid-Wales area to get together as a community. Our second aim is to provide a directory of regulated therapists for the public to have reassurance that our therapists are fully qualifed, members of a professional association or governing body and they are fully insured. Presently, very few complementary therapies are regulated by statute. Without governmental oversight anyone can set up in practice - without experience, training, qualifications, or insurance. That is why it is so important to choose a therapist that volunteers to be regulated.
The Mid Wales Guild of Holistic Therapists was formed by a group of local therapists. The aims of the Guild are:
The Committee 2020/21
The Guild came into being through the teamwork of three therapists living and working in Mid Wales. We are a like-minded group of therapists who wish to share good practice and promote holistic therapies in the local area. We view complementary health care as a unique vocation and believe that the personal qualities and skills of the therapist are a key factor to success.
