About

Welcome to The Scottish Therapy Academy.

We thought you might want to know a little about us before you book onto one or more of our training courses and/or services we offer here at the Glasgow Academy,  so here’s a snippet about us.

Hello, my name is Angela Wood and founder of The Scottish Therapy Academy.  I have been in the beauty, holistic and well-being industries for longer than I like to admit (over 20 years!).  My journey began with a deep passion for beauty and holistic wellness, where I honed my skills as a therapist and then as an educator.  Over the years I have had the privilege of training and guiding hundreds of individuals, whether new to the industry or existing therapists looking to add to existing skills.

The Scottish Therapy Academy is an award-winning training academy offering accredited beauty, holistic, and massage courses in Glasgow.

We believe training should give you more than just certificates. Our students leave with:

  • Practical skills to work professionally with clients.

  • Confidence to get started straight away.

  • Support with the challenges of pricing, visibility, and putting yourself out there.

With over 20 years in the industry, we understand that building a career in therapy isn’t only about learning techniques — it’s about believing in yourself.

That’s why we’re proud to offer both expert training and personal confidence support, helping you grow a career you love.

All of our Tutors and Practitioners based here at the academy, are hand-picked and qualified to the highest of standards to deliver quality services, so rest assured you are in good hands.

Fully Accredited & Approved Professional Diplomas
