Massage is one of the most natural human instincts, to soothe and comfort by touch and as most of us have this inherent ability, massage is quite easy to learn once one has mastered the basic movements.  Massage is a method of manipulating the soft tissues of the body to have a specific effect. Its objective is the restoration of function, release of tension and the re-establishment of the body's contours where this is desirable. Massage benefits young and old alike and is one of the most effective and beneficial ways to allay and prevent serious clinical symptoms within the body.

This is a practical course on how and when to use a wide variety of massage techniques.
