About Josie

Josie Donaldson is a fully qualified Clinical Aromatherapist, Kinesiologist, counsellor, nutritionist and shamanic healer.

Josie set up The Complementary Therapy Clinic in Morpeth, Northumberland in 1994 after moving from London.

She quickly established a successful clinic treating people from all over the UK and Europe, selling good quality essential oils and made-to-measure remedies specific to people's symptoms.

 She started her research in Biochemical Aromatherapy while she was working at the Head Injury unit of the local cottage hospital and the breast cancer unit in Blyth. She has since developed her research by working on Cerebral Palsy patients and people with MS and ME.

Josie is a principal teacher and examiner of the I.F.A (International Federation of Aromatherapists) and has travelled to Japan in  this capacity.

She started her own training school called N.E.S.A (The North East School of Aromatherapy) in 2006 which is becoming as successful as her clinic. She offers diploma courses, one to four day non certificated massage and essential oil courses as well as CPD for qualified practitioners.

Josie travels extensively all over the UK and abroad teaching workshops on Biochemical Aromatherapy and Psychological Aromatherapy. She has written a successful book called 'The Psychological Aspects of Essential Oils' which sells very well all over the UK and America.

Josie is on the Policy board of the Kinesiology Federation and is on the executive council of the I.F.A where she aims to try to promote the healing potential of both therapies out to a wider public.
