QUALIFICATION

This is an FHT-accredited CPD course.

Learn how to integrate Thai yoga massage techniques into your existing couch-massage practice.

This CPD course will teach you how to give a couch massage with dynamic, flowing movements using joint manipulation, stretching, compression work and Thai acupressure. You’ll learn how to use your body-weight and body positioning to apply deeper, more effective pressure without straining your hands, thumbs and wrists. It’s a great way to bring variety into your work and to alleviate the repetitive movements of a traditional, Western, massage treatment.

The course is ideal for massage therapists who are already trained in couch massage and are looking to increase their massage techniques and to extend their potential career. It’s also perfect for those trained in Thai yoga massage (floor-based) or yoga teachers who are looking to expand their business by transferring their skills to the couch.

The course is taught over two days in which we’ll cover:
Theory of Thai yoga massage and energy lines
Location of some Sen (energy) lines
Basic Thai massage techniques
Effective feet, leg and hip stretches for the client in Supine and Prone position
Back compressions in Prone and neck-work in Supine
How to use your whole body safely and effectively
Good body positioning to achieve maximum effect with minimal effort



The advanced training day builds upon your learning from the first two days. In the advanced course you’ll learn techniques that will help deal with specific muscular-skeletal issues such as lower back pain, sciatic pain, shoulder and neck problems. It focuses on Thai massage techniques when the client is in a side-lying position, and so is particularly useful when working with those who are uncomfortable on their back or front (e.g. pregnant women or people with breathing difficulties).

This course is currently available online only. However, if you're interested in learning the advanced moves in-person, please discuss with Kathryn on the two-day course.
Thank you for a great course.  You made me feel very welcome and comfortable. I wasn’t sure I’d fit in with such a different approach to the others, but it was great.
