About This Course

1) Educational Purpose Only

Sirius Health provides this online course (including all videos, live sessions, manuals, PDFs, demonstrations, meditations, and any downloadable materials) for educational and informational purposes only. This course intends to support skill development in traditional Thai massage/Nuad Boran and related Thai healing arts, and you may use it as a supplement to supervised hands-on study.

This course does not create a practitioner-client relationship, therapist-patient relationship, or any other regulated clinical relationship, and it is not a substitute for formal, supervised, in-person training.

2) Online Learning Limitations and Hands-On Training Expectations

Thai massage is a hands-on practice involving body mechanics, positioning, leverage, pressure, and joint movement. Learning online has inherent limits: your instructor cannot physically adjust your positioning, verify pressure, or intervene in real time the way an in-person teacher can.

For safety and competency, learners should pursue in-person instruction, mentorship, and supervised practice, especially before applying techniques professionally, teaching others, or working with clients who have complex health histories.

3) Not Medical Advice or For Diagnosis or Treatment

The content of this course is not medical advice, and its intent is not to diagnose, treat, cure, prescribe remedies for, or prevent any disease, injury, or health condition.

If you (or the person you practice with) have any medical concerns, particularly acute pain, unexplained symptoms, recent injury, neurological symptoms, cardiovascular concerns, pregnancy, osteoporosis, blood clot risk, cancer care considerations, post-surgical restrictions, or any condition requiring medical supervision, consult a qualified regulated healthcare professional before practicing.

4) Safety, Consent, and Contraindications

By participating, you agree to practice responsibly and prioritize safety:

Informed Consent: Always obtain clear, voluntary consent before any hands-on practice.
Screening: Ask about relevant health history and current symptoms before practice sessions.
Stop Immediately If Needed: Discontinue any technique that causes sharp pain, numbness/tingling, dizziness, nausea, shortness of breath, emotional distress, or any “something isn’t right” signal.
Scope and Modifications: Use conservative pressure and appropriate modifications. Avoid advanced techniques (including deeper stretching, strong compression, and joint mobilization) unless you have appropriate supervised training and the receiver is a suitable candidate.
Minors and Vulnerable Persons: Do not practice on minors or vulnerable persons without appropriate legal consent, suitable safeguarding, and (where required) professional authorization.

5) Professional Conduct and Ethical Expectations

Sirius Health expects students to maintain professional standards that protect clients, practice partners, and the integrity of Thai healing arts, including:

Respecting the privacy and confidentiality of any personal information shared during practice sessions.
Maintaining clear boundaries and a safe learning environment.
Practicing honest representation of your training level and experience (do not claim competencies you have not attained).
Avoiding any conduct that would compromise safety, dignity, or trust.

6) Legal and Regulatory Compliance (Canada + International)

This online course is not a certification program. You may not use your completion of this course as proof of professional certification, licensure, or authorization to practise Thai massage (Nuad Boran) or any regulated health profession in Canada or any other jurisdiction.

Massage therapy/bodywork is regulated differently across countries, and in Canada, provinces/territories regulate it. Some jurisdictions regulate the profession, restrict certain activities, and/or protect professional titles.

This course is recognized/eligible for continuing education / continued competency credits for members of the Natural Health Practitioners of Canada (NHPC) through its Continued Competency Program (CCP). Otherwise, you are solely responsible for determining and complying with all applicable requirements in your location, including (where relevant):

Licensing/registration rules
protected-title rules (e.g., use of “Massage Therapist,” “Registered Massage Therapist,” “RMT/MT,” or similar designations)
insurance requirements (professional liability, student coverage, or practitioner coverage)
consumer protection and advertising/marketing rules
workplace health and safety obligations
recordkeeping and privacy requirements

Completion of this online course does not, by itself, grant authorization to practice, teach, or use any protected professional title in any jurisdiction, nor does it guarantee eligibility for insurance reimbursement or professional association recognition.

7) THAI and Nuad Boran Thai Association Europe Alignment and Recognition

This course aims to respect widely recognized expectations within the Thai massage community regarding safe learning and ethical practice.

Thai Healing Alliance International (THAI): THAI emphasizes hands-on study and ethical practice. If you plan to pursue THAI recognition/membership, note that THAI membership requirements generally prioritize in-person training and may limit how to count hours of online learning.
Nuad Boran Thai Association Europe: This association maintains its own training recognition framework and quality label expectations. If your goal is association recognition, verify how your training hours, assessments, and course format may be evaluated.

Unless explicitly stated in writing by Sirius Health, this course is not represented as an accredited or association-approved pathway with THAI, Nuad Boran Thai Association Europe, or any regulator, and you should confirm requirements directly with the relevant organization(s) before relying on this course for credentialing purposes.

8) Assumption of Risk and Limitation of Liability

Thai massage practice and movement-based bodywork carry inherent risks, including strain, sprain, aggravation of existing conditions, bruising, dizziness, or other adverse effects-especially if techniques are applied incorrectly or without proper screening and supervision.

By enrolling in or accessing this course, you acknowledge and agree that you participate voluntarily and assume full responsibility for your use of the course materials and for all outcomes arising from practice or application.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Sirius Health Thai Massage, its owners, instructors, staff, and agents disclaim liability for any loss, injury, adverse outcome, or damages resulting from the use or misuse of the course content, including practice performed on yourself or others.

9) Not Legal Advice

This disclaimer is provided for general informational purposes and is not legal advice. If you have questions about what you may legally do, what titles you may use, or what rules apply where you live, consult the appropriate regulator and/or a qualified legal professional in your jurisdiction or others.
