The Courses


On Site Massage Diploma
On-Site Massage is an increasingly popular therapy that is used in many different locations.  It is particularly suited to use in the workplace because the seated massage sequence is performed through clothes ~ so no are oils used.  Research exists that highlights the benefits of the therapy.

It is an excellent way of introducing massage to people who have not experienced it before.  It is very versatile and can be used as part of a marketing and publicity strategy, for instance at public/community events in the form of ‘taster’ sessions.

The On-Site Massage course is designed to enable existing professional physical therapists to gain an additional dimension to their work.  more>
