This course encompasses all of the required elements needed to work as a proficient and effective sports massage therapist.
In this unit, we will cover the systems of the body that sports massage therapists need to know about to deliver treatments to their clients effectively. This will give a great base of knowledge to build on in the next modules.
This module will help the Learner to understand the components of fitness and how the body responds to exercise. This will complement the knowledge gained from the first module and will also give the Learner a wider understanding of the body and how to apply this to sports massage.
Having gained the knowledge learned from the first two modules this module will then move on to learn about the standards and protocols relevant to the sports massage therapist’s profession. This will equip the learner with the information needed to be able to become a practising sports massage therapist.
learners will study different types of soft tissue dysfunction and how they can assist the healing process with sports massage. This gives a deeper understanding of the benefits of the practice and how they can make a difference to their client’s healing and wellbeing.
In this module, you will learn how to carry out client assessments and apply a range of treatments to assist recovery. This module will give the learner the practical knowledge behind all of the theories learnt in the previous modules. This is where the learner will become confident in the treatments they will be delivering to their clients in the future.
While much of this course will be taught through our award-winning and flexible e-learning platforms, you will still benefit from the practical experience taught in our in-person workshop and assessment sessions.
Our expert Sports Massage tutors lead 4 days of practical face to face learning which gives our learners the ability to learn through doing rather than from a textbook. We believe that this approach to learning sets our training above the rest and will give out graduates the much-needed confidence to form a successful career in this industry.
As well as workshops manuals, there is a high volume of resources available for learners across our e-learning, student zone and social media platforms.
