Description

This course is intended for anyone who has already undertaken a basic body massage course, who would like to extend their treatment range to include deep colon massage, and offer more energising treatments, and to further their knowledge of the digestive conditions that may lead clients to book a treatment, with self help measures that they can suggest.

  • to extend your knowledge of the anatomy and physiology of the digestive system

  • to understand the physical and mental health benefits of massage therapy for the client with a bowel condition
