• 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.

 

2 days practical: Starting at 10am and finishing at 5pm on each day you will be taught all of the practical skills you will need to deliver a range of Thai Massage treatments. There is no practical test. Instead we assess your understanding and ability of each treatment technique as it is taught. Students practice upon one another so no need to bring a massage model.

 

Our courses are mixed gender which means that both males and females participate.
