A therapist can give a safe, effective massage that provides a tremendous boost to wellness by using different techniques, healing settings, and undergoing consultation. Our Swedish Massage Online Course will give you everything you need to know to be a professional Swedish Massage therapist.

Our Massage Online Course will discuss all related anatomy and physiology topics to better understand how the body works.

Our comprehensive course walks you through the steps you need to take before starting therapy, including determining what they want to get out of it and making sure you're aware of any negative effects or interactions so you can educate them or adjust your treatment accordingly. It will also teach you about applicable law that concerns massage therapists, so you and your clients are both aware of your legal obligations and rights

2. Massage Therapist: Become A Massage Therapist

Massage has been used for centuries to heal, invigorate and relax the mind and body, reaching all the major organs as well as helping the muscles, bones and soft tissue to stay healthy.

Before you employ any techniques, this Massage Therapy course takes you through various parts of the anatomy and systems of the body, to give important knowledge about why massage is used and in what ways it is beneficial to the body, including which techniques to use for specific ailments. It also details best practices, how to recognise symptoms of various conditions, and how to treat specific clients, for example when it is safe to massage someone in pregnancy and which techniques to use and which to avoid.

The massage principle is simple: touch means stimulation. This means that wherever touch is used, the body reacts. Because of the changing landscape of the skin and the body parts it protects, differing levels of touch on the body elicit a range of responses; a soft stroke on the forearm may induce relaxation, but a deeper touch might help the blood vessels in the lower arm take blood back to the heart or stimulate and deepen blood flow to painful muscles.

You will learn how to create the right atmosphere for massage and how to conduct a session, to give the client a positive experience. This includes which oils to use for massage and how choosing specific oils can have positive effects on certain conditions of the client’s body and mind.

It then moves onto the practice of the subject; massage techniques and how to deploy them to various parts of the body, and how each treatment is beneficial. The course also takes you through specific massage applications, such as massage for sports and abdominal massage, as well as the benefits, and how to perform, hydrotherapy.

3. Hot Stone Massage: Learn And Build Your Own Successful Hot Stone Massage Business

This extremely comprehensive course will teach you everything that you need to know about building a successful hot stone massage business.

Starting with the very basics, with specific step-by-step details of massage and its benefits, anatomy and physiology, the benefits of a Hot Stone Massage, the different techniques that you can use, and including everything that you need to know about setting up your business and how to get your very first clients.

The course starts with a brief introduction as to what is involved in a hot stone massage and what to expect from the course and then moves into a fuller introduction module. This larger introduction gives you a good base to build your knowledge from, as it provides the answers to the ‘Whys’ of the subject, including the benefits, facts and theories about hot stone massage, along with a little history of its origins.

We discuss different types of stones used and the ailments and conditions this type of massage can treat and explain why you would want to give hot stone massage.

Students will learn the basics, such as the equipment you’ll need, safety concerns to be aware of, and how to set up a treatment room, to how to heat stones and techniques and tips on how to actually give a massage. Additionally, there are a number of secret tricks of the trade included that will help you to become more proficient, quicker.
