 Calling all existing therapists! Qualify in this highly portable and marketable additional therapy by our brand new fast track route - attendance at only 1 weekend.
The treatment can be performed virtually anywhere, without any equipment or oils, and the client does not have to undress. All you need is an ordinary chair.
 It is an extremely beneficial additional therapy to Massage, Aromatherapy, Reflexology, Beauty Therapy etc.
The course is for qualified Massage Therapists, Aromatherapists, Reflexologists and other qualified body workers. If you have completed a course in Anatomy, Physiology and Pathology, but are still training in a practical subject, you can also carry out the course (please ring to discuss), but can only take the exam when qualified.
During the course you will learn:
-
The Factors that affect our Health & Social Wellbeing
- Physical & Psychological signs of Stress
- Legislation relating to OSM
- Issues relating to Consent
- Common Ailments and Contraindications
- Client care and Hygiene
- Massage Sequence
- Evaluate and Review Treatment
- Referral Procedures and Homecare Advice
Case studies are also required to be completed for this award. The case studies form the internal assessment and should be assessed throughout the training by the tutor using the ITEC Case Study Guidance sheet. The case studies are then verified by an ITEC Examiner at the end of the course during the visit for invigilating the practical examination. The case studies ensure that a variety of clients must be consulted and treated in all the above areas and the outcomes of the treatments must be documented in order to gain experience of working with a variety of clients and conditions whilst candidates are still under supervision. Detailed rationales for the type of massage treatment.
