This is a comprehensive and intensive course covering the delivery of a Hot Stones body massage to your clients to make them feel relaxed and revitalised.
Hot stone massage combines the benefits of hydrotherapy and thermotherapy with massage strokes, using stones to create a deep, relaxing and healing treatment.
Using the heat of the stones to warm the skin allows the skin to absorb moisturizing and therapeutic oils, while at the same time preparing the musculature of the body so the therapist can work into the deeper layers of muscle and fascia.
It is generally accepted that one stroke of a heated basalt stone is equivalent to 5-10 strokes of the therapists hand!

Your Qualification certificate will be claimed from the awarding body (Beauty Guild) only once you have successfully completed your practical assessment and have been confirmed as fully complete with the theory.
Once you have completed and passed your course with AABY you will need to arrange professional insurance which will cover you to work on clients, family and friends. Insurance is needed if you are practising on friends and family in the lead up to your practical day.
If you hold an existing policy, you are responsible to ensure the insurance provider will extend your cover to include the new treatment(s) and for covering any cost to make changes. AABY cannot accept responsibility for issues resulting with insurance companies where students fail to check this prior to booking.
This Introduction to Massage Techniques course will give you the basic techniques needed to carry out massage safely.
Our intensive Deep Tissue Massage course is ideal if you have already studied body massage and wish to progress your understanding of therapeutic treatment.
