​

The practical training is undertaken over two days, with a further date arranged with you for assessment. 

Two training days are going through what you have learnt 'in theory' so far and you will have plenty of time to practice the routine. 

 

Over the next month approximately : You will then be required to practice on a range of different people from home in order to gain confidence. Guidance will be given on this. 

​

The assessment day is scheduled for roughly a month after the training days to give you time to practice and gain some experience massaging a variety of people.  Hopefully come back full of questions!    On this day you will do the formal assessments -  which you will need to pass in order to gain the qualification. 

​
