Aromaticas' owners said they would provide heat to the classroom and accommodations quickly, after 2 months and frequent days and nights of freezing temperatures we were not adequately provided with heated or safe washroom sewage.
The sewage became an issue when the owner opened the containment system onto the grounds twice.
He kept my fees which were $6, 700 plus accommodations costs after I complained. Without a refund Jeff wrote me saying through his lawyer I was not to return to finish my course if I had health and safety concern. I had to call the municipal government to have safety by-laws enforced 3xs.
Jeff is now directed by the city to not use his classroom that he advertises on his web site and that he can only use 1/4 of his very small house. In Sept.2010 his classroom situation was not in compliance with by-laws.
Jeff also is being further investigated by the health board for health and safety violations. He tells officials that he is not doing acupuncture but, he told me to bring in someone for an acupuncture treatment.
Aromatica is a Rip-off!!! Jeff Cottam refused to provide me with a copy of his Dr. of Acupuncture doctorate that he claims to have earned and not bought the honorary degree from Holland.
As a couple that teach holistic heath and practice alternative therapy Jeff and Sarah do indeed have a very unhealthy business and home.
Jeff also made each student massage him to pass thier initial practical exams saying that that was the only way he could tell if we were doing it right. YUCK a very disturbing activity. Yet further partials were done on fellow students and volunteers. Yes, he appeared to be one twisted man with more ego than brains. He lied to my fellow students several times regarding my complaints and said they appeared suddenly after I complained for 4 months with no resolve to health concerns.
Save yourself the money and the time away from home and go to a reputable school not these shysters.
Ripped-off and discussed in Wiarton
