The Advanced Massage course will teach you how to complete the classic Swedish, Holistic and Therapeutic massages and introduces beneficial therapeutic techniques, as well as stretches. You will complete a number of massages on models throughout the extended practical training ensuring that you experience a variety of muscle tones and body types. At the end of the course you will have refined your techniques to the highest level.
The Advanced Massage course will be tailored to requirement of the specific student. This will mean that students with experience will move onto the enhanced techniques such as; therapeutic massage and stretches earlier in the practical element, once basic Swedish massage techniques have been assessed and where necessary refined.
Students with no experience will firstly undertake and refine their Swedish massage techniques, before moving onto the Advanced Massage techniques.
