Course content:

Learn how to give a safe, relaxing back massage, even if you’ve never done it before! This half-day, hands-on course is perfect for complete beginners, couples, caregivers, and anyone curious about massage therapy. It’s also the perfect introduction for anyone considering our longer massage courses, such as the Level 3 Diploma in Massage.

You’ll be guided step-by-step through simple, effective techniques to release tension and promote relaxation. We’ll cover basic anatomy, body mechanics, and the importance of communication and comfort so you can give (and receive) massage with confidence.

Whether you’re caring for a loved one, deepening your connection as a couple, or exploring massage as a career path, this course offers a supportive space to learn the art of touch in a practical, approachable way.

No experience needed, just a willingness to learn!

If you are training one-to-one, you may be required to find a model to accompany you on this course.

Course length: This is a half-day course, which can be morning or afternoon by arrangement with your tutor.

Certification: Whilst not a qualification in massage, you will receive a certificate of completion.
