PREGNANCY MASSAGE COURSE – ADVANCED
Our Pregnancy Massage Course is an essential advanced course for body therapists, for working on existing clients when they become pregnant and attracting new pregnant clients. Our Pregnancy Massage Course will simultaneously provide you with the theory and practical knowledge to work safely and confidently on Mums to be throughout their pregnancy.
Learn a full body massage routine including the ‘baby bump’ which will enable you to further your practice and integrate the new techniques into your own style of massage. During the Pregnancy Massage Course, we explore the phases the body goes through and how to adapt the treatments for each stage of the pregnancy.
This intensive Pregnancy Massage Course combines theory and practical knowledge. Consequently, you will adapt your massage to treat the individual needs of the Mum to be at all stages of the pregnancy. Therefore you will be able to increase your client base with confidence.
