Holistic (or Swedish) Massage involves the manipulation of the body’s soft tissue (the skin, muscles, tendons and ligaments) using the hands in a gentle, flowing massage technique that uses varying degrees of pressure and stretching movements. It is most commonly used for relaxation, improving well-being and lymphatic drainage.  

This course is a Full Body Holistic Massage Practitioner’s Diploma Course, and is designed for those who wish to become professional massage therapists.  After being awarded this Diploma, students will be able to obtain insurance to practice full body Holistic/Swedish Massage professionally.
