This training is made up of three parts. You may complete the theoretical and practical modules at the same time, but the practicum starts only once you’ve finished your in-person practical massage classes.​

1) Theoretical Classes (At Home)
This self-paced module is completed at home through readings, videos, and assignments. Our instructors remain available to answer your questions and support you throughout your learning process. This component will help you build a solid foundation in anatomy, physiology, pathology, and other essential subjects related to massage therapy.

2) Practical Classes (In Person)
Practical classes take place in person, in small groups, allowing for personalized guidance from your instructor. Each week, you’ll also receive readings and at-home practice exercises to help you fully integrate the techniques taught. You will learn various Swedish massage techniques in a professional, supportive, and student-centered environment.

​3) Supervised Practicum (In Person)
The practicum involves offering 30 one-hour massages. Each massage counts for 1.5 hours of training, as it includes client intake, interview, treatment planning, the massage itself, and post-session follow-up.
This is a hands-on opportunity to apply all the skills you've acquired and refine your approach through feedback collected via client evaluation forms.
Practicum hours must be completed at Vibrations Om, after the completion of the practical training modules. You will benefit from real immersion in a professional setting within an active massage therapy clinic. The timeframe to complete your practicum is flexible and based on your availability.

Refunds
In case of cancellation, a $100 administrative fee will be retained, along with a prorated amount based on the number of in-person sessions attended. These administrative fees cover high transaction costs and account for the fact that your reserved spot prevented others from registering. This policy ensures fairness for all participants. Since spots are limited, we kindly ask that you notify us as early as possible so we can offer your place to someone else.

Absences
Up to 1 absence is allowed.
Beyond that, private sessions ($100/hour) may be required to validate your certification.
