HOW TO TRAIN WITH RICTAT TO BECOME A COLON HYDROTHERAPIST……..

This page provides an overview of the things to consider if you are thinking about applying to train as a colon hydrotherapist and what you can expect during your training with RICTAT. We’d very much encourage you to join this wonderful and in-demand modality. Our training meets skills for health and national occupational standards and we have been training successfully for over sixteen years with prominent alumni who have gone on to work in the media as well as develop numerous clinic chains. Students also receive ongoing support after training in business set-up if required and help with equipment.

Before you begin your practical training there are some course prerequisites, we have several access routes.
