Becoming a Massage Therapist is not as hard as it appears to be. One must first have the desire to complete the amount of schooling and appreciation for the art form. After that, you are on your way to the top.
Hi, my names' Sunita Passi and I'm from a company called Tri-Dosha, we're specialists are trained in Ayurvedic therapy and also meditation, and we supply products and treatments to some luxury spas around the world. There are many ways to meditate and I'm here today to talk to you about a few of the different meditations techniques that you can bring into your life in order to feel happier and healthier. Well, if you're thinking about becoming a massage therapist, there's probably been some sort of transition in your life, you're looking for a vocation that has some flexibility to it.
You're also looking for a vocation that has value behind it so you're able to bring health and healing benefits to your clients and you're potentially interested in hands on, so work, you know, physically using your hands. When you are seeking to become a massage therapist, the first thing you want to think about is what type of client base you want to have. Do you want to offer a treatment that is more clinically based? Do you want to offer something of more relaxation? Do you want to offer something that also has lifestyle benefits? So first, you need to think about the level you want to deliver your massage therapy to.
Once you've got an idea about that, you then need to decide on the kind of certificate that you want to be trained in. There are a number of schools locally that will be offering different types of training qualifications. The basic qualifications, the initial qualifications for a massage therapist are awarded from two bodies, one is called ITec and the other body is called VTCT.
You need to have a look at the breakdown of the syllabus for both of those courses and decide which one feels right to you. You then need to find an accredited training school locally. It will generally take you four to twelve months to train professionally as a massage therapist.
Once you've completed your qualification, you'll then need to also complete six case studies. So before you can actually start charging the paying public for your treatments, you'll need to complete six case studies. On completion of these six case studies, you can then start to build your practice up.
