Professional Testimonials

"I have known Corrine for the past two years since 2006 and have taken Reiki 1, 2 and 3A with her. Corrine provides her best to her students, not only in class but also outside of it. I have truly enjoyed all the classes conducted by Corrine and have learnt much about the human energy system and healing effects of Reiki from her. Besides playing the role of a teacher, she has been a mentor for me in many ways. I have received much emotional support and words of wisdom from her via our email correspondences. Since beginning my Reiki training with Corrine, I have and am still growing towards my own sense of self-empowerment and Corrine has been there every step of the way. For that, I am eternally grateful." - Patrick Ong, Reiki Master Practitioner, Singapore

My self treatment sessions are just now becoming regular, which I am very pleased about. I love listening to the cd from you, as it takes me back to being in your peaceful presence.

But hopefully before then we can meet up when you and your family are here for a white christmas." - Marissa Moore, Reiki 1 Practitioner and Spa Therapist, Canada

"That was an amazing 4 days. Today I am aware just how healing it all was for me. The sore spots I had on my body due to my type of work have mostly gone. When I woke up today and realised just how much better I felt apart from learning something exciting as well and the learning curve we went through. It was not just about the learning but the healing that took place as well. You are a wonderful teacher and an exceptional healer. Thank you so much for the love and the care given to us. I am looking forward to the next time we meet. God has given you a unique blessing." - Diana Starkie-Jardine, State Co-Ordinator IFA Western Australia

"I have recently experienced in Melbourne a one-on-one Shirodhara and Champissage training session with Corrine Brown and what an amazing experience! Lots of theory, lots of practice and lots of fun. Corrine's training methods are exceptional and I have come away feeling much informed and more enriched for this training experience. When I have mastered these modalities I know I will return to Corrine to receive further training in other courses. I highly recommend Corrine and the Institute of Holistic Therapies" - Suzanne Thompson, Intuitive Healer, Adelaide

"Thank you Corrine for such an amazing journey so far. I feel so blessed to have found such a warm, intelligent and caring individual to teach me Shirodhara, Ear Candling and both Reiki 1 & 2.

"I own and run two specialist studio businesses and believe all of this could not have been possible if not for all the support and help I received from my tutor Mrs Corrine Brown. When I began my training with Corrine, I was amazed at the amount of dedication, time and effort she gave, a lot of this from the heart. Anyone who has the opportunity to train with Corrine would be one of the luckiest students and would be privileged indeed. Even though I am no longer her student, she still has the time to offer me advice 24 hours. Once again I cannot tell you all how much I believe Corrine has helped make me the success I am today" - Perth's very own Eyebrow King (as quoted by The West Australian Newspaper) Matthew Nguyen, Former Student and Successful Entrepreneur of Matt-Yuko Claremont, Western Australia

"I completed both my Reiki 1 and Reiki 2 courses with Corrine Brown. I instantly felt a connection with Corrine, and I enjoy her warm and friendly nature, her spiritual insight, her friendship, her humour and her honesty. I found both courses to be relevant and insightful whilst being practical and down to earth. I learnt many techniques which continue to benefit both my life and the lives of those close to me greatly. Completing my Reiki 1 and 2 was a spiritual journey, and I could not have asked for a better teacher to accompany me on the path! Corrine was always realistic and flexible with her teaching, and I have loved being able to continue sharing my journey with Corrine since I finished the courses. Corrine opened both her heart and her home to me. She is such a genuine person, always willing to share her own experiences to help others develop their understandings. I feel blessed to share my Reiki journey with Corrine!" - Caitlin Roberts, Reiki Second Degree Practitioner, Melbourne

"Mrs Corrine Brown always provides a great learning environment for her students. She delivers her knowledge very clearly and yet in a non-hectic way. She is fun to learn from and is attentive to every detail. A very resourceful lady with a personal touch. She enlightened and deepened my knowledge and am glad to have trained under her seminar in Hot Stones Massage, Indian Head Massage, Lomi Lomi and Ear Candling. Being respectful to this Master, my international Beauty Therapy Diploma feels much more meaningful to me when she's the examiner. You never fail to feel calm and focused when you are within the touch of this Reiki Master. She sets a good example and I enjoy her teaching very much. I always look forward to be enlightened further by this Master at heart" - Qi Ying Tay Nancy, Seminar Participant, Singapore

"I found Corrine's website online and contacted her for some information regarding a waxing course. After receiving her efficient, professional reply to my enquiries, along with her friendly manner, I enrolled. Corrine is an outstanding teacher, thoroughly covering all there is to know in both theory and practical. After completing my courses I left feeling completely satisfied and confident in what I had learnt - so much so that I have now set up my own business! But I believe that I got so much more out of it than just waxing alone. Corrine truly is an amazing, motivational human being! She is kind, genuine, welcoming and compassionate, not to mention fun! I am so happy that I chose The Institute of Holistic Therapies to complete my course and I am so grateful to have found such a friend in Corrine." - Tanya Black, Waxing Specialist, Mildura, Country Victoria

"Distance and space does not permit citing all who have shared their knowledge and skills with me during my quest for higher learning, but there are those whose contributions deserves special mention. Here in particular I must express my utmost gratitude to Corrine Brown for her dedication and commitment despite the short course of Reiki she taught. She was ever so willing to share her experiences and never failed to provide an answer to whatever doubts and questions I had at any time on my own Reiki experiences even after my course with her had ended.

Once again my deep appreciation to a true Reiki Master Teacher without whom my level of higher learning would not have taken place thus enhancing my work in palliative care" - Sallyann Wong, State Registered Nurse, Colchester, Essex, United Kingdom

The Stone Therapy in particular has been spectacular in its popularity with clients. Within weeks we were needing to purchase more sets of volcanic stones to meet demand. The demand has continued unabated and we will often be performing 6 or more Stone Treatments at the same time. Corrine provides a detailed structure for her courses and always gives excellent marketing advice to complement the technical training" -
