What will I learn?

Improve your massage therapy skills with our Relaxation Massage Therapist Training Programme, made for people just starting out and those who have been doing it for a while. You'll learn important ways of massaging like petrissage (kneading), tapotement (tapping), and effleurage (stroking), and how to change your massage to fit what each person needs. You'll also get better at managing your time, planning the order of the massage, and talking to clients. You'll learn practical things about how to stand, move, and understand what people tell you.
