Hi Ozzie, Simone,

Yeah, that's the way we do things here in Brisbane. The last person still standing gets to be a homoeopath. It's as easy as winning a gold medal at the Winter Olympics!

I noticed 60 hours of lecture time devoted to massage studies? A prerequisite to becoming a homoeopathic practitioner? Sounds like they're still bulking out the course to meet government standards. It took me 5 years part time 3 nights a week to finish mine at the ACNM and I had to do several "compulsary electives" (how's that for an oxymoron?) in the naturopathic stream to get that bit of paper. Mine is called Bachelor of Homeopathy, the very next year they told me to come back and get a Diploma of Health Science (I didn't) for it to be recognized blah, blah, blah. I don't mind studying either and I'm all for the cause of homoeopathy but I refuse to pay mega $$$ to study stuff that is irrelevant to my practice.
If it comes down to the line I'd be happy to just put Witch, By Appointment on my mailbox.
