Course Description
Prerequisite: Level 1: Thai Massage Foundations
Duration: 30 hours
CECs: NHPC 15 | CMMOTA 24 | MTAM 30
Included: Handbook, online access, T-shirt, certificate
The primary focus of this course will be to teach you Thai massage acupressure points and stretches in the side-lying, prone and sitting positions. You will learn massage techniques that use your hands, knees, feet, and elbows and efficient transitions between each of these techniques. Each massage position begins with the feet and moves up toward the head.
Our courses emphasize hands-on training and practical experience. In addition to working with the instructor and other students, you can practice your new skills on Sirius Health client volunteers on the fourth training day.
This course will begin daily with Thai Yoga (Reusi Dat Ton). Course content will progress along four streams of study: Professional, Theoretical, Practical and Ethical. Course content will include the steps to becoming a Thai massage practitioner and introduce the five layers of the body. We will review how to create intake forms and SOAP notes and examine the implications of cultural appropriation regarding Thai massage.
By the end of the course, you will be able to perform a complete 120-minute Traditional Thai massage using all four positions.

What's Inside the Course
Gain the Power to Feel Confident and Capable
Wouldn't you love to know how to do this incredible form of Thai massage? Maybe start your own Thai massage business or treat your friends and family?
In this combination of in-person and online Thai massage course, Grant will guide you step by step to show you from the basic massage techniques to more advanced on how to give your massage clients an incredible Thai massage experience.
Schools typically teach Traditional Thai Massage as a system of sequences. We have developed a different and vastly improved approach. We teach you the entire system with its many sequences. But we also help you to go beyond those sequences and learn many specialized therapeutic applications.
We strongly focus on therapist-friendly ways of working to keep therapists healthy and inspired, and we focus on working with the energy components that make Thai Massage so effective.
