Overview

This Sitting-Back Massage Course will enable therapists to take their work into the workplace or the client's home. Seated massage is especially useful for treating clients with stress related problems and for our elderly, anxious and pregnant clients who are not comfortable laying down.

Sitting-Back Massage uses a broad selection of techniques that reduce tension in the back, neck and shoulders; thus providing deep relaxation, promoting circulation and muscle stimulation. This Massage has also become a popular way to introduce the general public to the benefits of professional massage.
