Introduction to Chair Massage

This is a one day introductory course, which will demonstrate various techniques for using chair massage in a corporate environment. For qualified practitioners, this can substantially increase earning potential and offer useful tools for targeting specific problem areas. Participants will learn a 15 minute Oriental style massage routine to relieve tension and promote relaxation, working on:

• Upper back
• Arms
• Legs
• Neck
• Client sitting up

The day will cover client consultations and contra-indications, followed by a practical demonstration, with the majority of the day practicing the techniques and running through the complete routine.

There will be a short talk on the 5 element theory, acupressure points and meridians.

This day can lead to a full City & Guilds qualification in Seated Acupressure Therapy should the student wish to study further. A £50 voucher against the full qualification is included with the course.

Participants will be qualified in Anatomy & Physiology and a recognised massage qualification.
