To set up a successful massage business you need tried, tested and trusted techniques. I have over 30 years of body work training, coaching and experience and bring to you this holistic massage technique that I have used on 1000's of clients; many of whom have had numerous sessions and who have recommended my to their friends and families. A successful massage business is like any other business in that it’s success depends on word of mouth recommendations.
Whether you intend to offer massage professionally, or for your partner and friends, this course is for you.
The course follows a step by step learning approach so that you can gain fluency in each technique before moving on to the next.
There are also lectures on the know-how of massage as a business including guidelines on how to market your massage business once you’ve completed the course.
There are further lectures on oils and blending them to further enhance your session.
This course is deliberately light on anatomy and physiology, uses normal terminology and its main focus is concentrated on you gaining fluidity of movement and technique.
With holistic massage we are not only working on a physical level but also on an energetic level and you will be shown how to incorporate these elements into your sessions.
Whilst I wouldn’t advise giving up the day job just yet, this course could be your springboard to a whole new career.
