Introduction to Massage course

Learn the basic techniques of massage that you can use every day. Become more aware of touch and more confident in basic massage skills. We will teach you how to release tension when your partner is stressed or when your kids are having trouble sleeping. Even with 10 minutes of massage, you make a difference. Sometimes it's better to touch than to talk; it's basic, simple and very powerful.

The course consists of 3 hours of fully-dressed, hands-on learning with a small group of people. Breathing exercises for tension release plus calming massage techniques for your back, arms, hands, feet, neck, head and face.

Bring yourself comfortably dressed and please wear a round-neck T-shirt. The techniques are simple and with hands-on learning you are more likely to remember everything. You will also receive a guidebook and massage oil to practice at home

The course is held on Sundays at Pure Massage Fulham from 6.30 to 9.30pm.

Price: £80 per person
