Why become a Massage - Alternative Therapist?
What if you could to help improve the health and well-being of other human beings?
As a therapist you provide a service to the general public. You are there to help other people feel relaxed and less stressed and better about themselves.
Using your skills as a therapist you will help to promote the workings of the parasympathetic nervous system which calms the body and induces a feeling of relaxation and peace in your clients.
As you watch your clients float out of the door with a smile on their face, it is a great feeling to know that you have changed someone’s day for the better.
Why choose a Home Study Course?
You can start straight away.
You can work from home, at a time that suits you. You fit your learning around your lifestyle.
Of course you've heard that today’s online courses are very different than the old correspondence courses where you mailed your course notes and workbooks, where there were no Dvd explanations, just the written word.
Just imagine that you are attending your massage class and your tutor is demonstrating your massage techniques, once the class has finished, you have to go home and practice yourself, but you can't quite remember just what they did.
Wouldn't it be amazing if you could just watch that demonstration again
Well you can! Your massage course includes Dvd's of all the massage techniques that you will use in you treatment, so if you are not sure of something, you can just quickly watch the dvd again, and hey presto, you know what you are doing.
And because you are given the course note and Dvd's, if you missed something first time round, you can watch it again and again and again.
