You will learn both the theoretical knowledge and the practical skills to be able to competently perform this treatment to meet the needs of a range of clients, providing both affordable Express Body Massage treatments for time-pressed clients and also luxurious and deeply therapeutic Spa Full Body Massage treatments tailored to your client’s specific treatment needs. This hands-on, practical training course completed within 2 days will teach you a full body routine that can be adapted to be completed within 25-45 minutes or extended to up to 75 minutes to include the face and scalp, depending on the client’s individual therapeutic needs.

This course is structured over two days and runs from 10am – 4pm. We ask students to arrive at 9.45am to ensure a prompt start. You will learn the theory of the treatment firstly, and spend the majority of the first and second day practising your practical skills, with a short break for lunch. You will be required to give and receive body massage treatments as part of this course, working with other students.

We do not include any kits within our training courses, however we provide all products and tools required to complete the practical training on the day, at the training centre for you to use. We took this approach following student feedback so that students are not tied into specific kits or brands of products as part of their course fee, before they are trained and able to make an informed choice. Our training courses teach the generic treatment techniques and processes, they are not brand specific.

We recommend attending training where you will gain advice about different brands and suppliers to enable you to purchase products from your chosen supplier directly following your training. We do offer selected starter kits available to purchase through our website & supplied directly from the supplier to you by courier.

  4. Highly Recommend

    :

    I did the two day massage course and would definitely recommend taking the two day course. The second day I got to embed what I’d learned the first day, as well as taking on a few more techniques. Having Lisa as a trainer was really helpful for me, she was friendly and patient with me when I was struggling to get something which put me at ease. Lisa shared her knowledge not only of the course and massage, but of the industry itself. And as a newcomer, I am really grateful for this. Fantastic couple of days, and would (and have been) recommending people to give it a go!
