Massage course

For those wanting to further their career, Sage offers the Diploma Of Remedial Massage. With your skills in massage therapy, students of the Diploma can grow their knowledge through the assessment and treatment of ongoing client soreness and/or injury. The Diploma is offered in compressed learning workshops, each focusing on the diagnosis and treatment of specific areas of the body. Workshops are delivered at various times throughout the year, allowing students to practice and learn at their own pace.

With the Certificate IV In Massage Therapy Practice (HLT40307) as the prerequisite to study, this higher level qualification provides content likened to the assessment and treatment offered by a osteopath or physiotherapist.

Students learn how to take clients through a static and dynamic musculoskeletal assessment, then conduct and interpret results in order to apply a range of treatments for relief – restoring normal functions in clients.

The Diploma incorporates a range of new and exciting techniques, following on from the foundations developed in the Certificate IV in Massage Therapy Practice, including myofascial release, joint mobilisations, muscle energy techniques and positional release, all of which will help reduce symptoms of pain and discomfort.

The Diploma opens more doors for opportunity in the industry, and graduates are able to gain full membership with industry associations and health providers.

This qualification provides trained massage therapists with the skills and knowledge to upgrade to a higher level of practice.
