Our Sports Massage course represents a fantastic opportunity for individuals to gain invaluable additional manual skills and also to obtain an accredited ITEC diploma with the potential to work in private practice as a Sports Massage Therapist.

This course is adopting a blended learning format, which includes students having full access to a bespoke online learning package and then 3 days hands-on, in-house teaching, during which we will cover all practical techniques.

The bespoke online learning package includes over 20 hours combined content with every single technique and treatment shown in video format, as well as lectures. As the content is all pre-recorded, this is a fantastic resource to refer back to years down the line.

Because students will have access to the online learning, all the theoretical components of the course can be learnt remotely from home, allowing us 3 days to focus purely on hands-on techniques.

The Sports Massage course offers invaluable skills and knowledge for any undergraduate or post graduate Physiotherapist, Osteopath, Chiropractor, Sport Scientist, S and C coach or qualified fitness professional looking to work within a sporting setting or provide an alternative service for clients.
