About Chris
Unusually, Chris Cozens has a background in the RAF, where he served for 22 years before deciding on a radical career change in 1996. This came about after he went through a difficult emotional period in his life, when he turned to a reflexologist for help. He then saw a crystal healer and Shaman. He began attending workshops himself and hasn’t looked back since. Chris has widened his knowledge by attending countless workshops and training, from healing to a wide range of therapies.
Chris’s teaching has recently taken him from Trinidad to Spain, to training within mental health organisations such as MIND, teaching blind and deaf individuals and a world-wide hair salon chain. Chris is a complementary teacher and therapist with a difference. His style of teaching is fun, friendly, relaxed and highly informative.
In 1998 he established Life Arts, offering complementary therapies and specialising in Indian Head Massage. Today Life Arts offers a wide variety of training including The Association of Natural Medicine (ANM) accredited courses and Chris organises his own popular mind-body-spirit exhibitions.
Since 1999, more than 1,500 students have chosen to train with Chris, studying his Professional or Introductory Complementary Therapy training courses.
