Solo Training in Hot Stones Massage - 1 Day Diploma Course £295

Great For Beginner or as a refresher

Accredited for insurance purposes by:

Our Hot Stones Massage practitioner training course includes everything you need to safely and professionally conduct a Hot Stones Massage treatment. We can arrange SOLO or BESPOKE tuition for you at a date that suits you best.

 

SOLO tuition gives you the opportunity to focus upon individual requirements and the course will be tailored to your skill level and previous experience. Because solo tuition is one-to-one training (just yourself and the teacher) you would need to bring along a massage model with you who can be a friend or family member. As part of your learning experience the teacher would demonstrate the full treatment routine upon you at the start of the day.

 

If you wish to arrange training for more than one person we will create a BESPOKE course date for two or more people to attend. Bespoke courses are perfect for couples, friends or colleagues who only wish to attend a course that has been arranged just for them. On bespoke courses participants work upon one another so there is no need to bring along a massage model.

 

Please note: You need to have a qualification in body massage in order to undertake this course.

• How It Works

The theory test: Study your course manual at home and complete a theory test paper online. You can retake the test as many times as you like until you reach the pass mark and at no extra charge.

 

1 day practical: Starting at 10am and finishing at 5pm participants will be taught all of the practical skills needed to deliver a hot stones massage treatment. There is no practical test. Instead we assess the participants understanding and ability of each treatment technique as it is taught. If you opt for solo tuition you will need to bring a massage model with you on the training day. This can be a friend or member of your family.
