The course offers blended learning with 80% of theory completed online and via Zoom classes. Massage is 6 days in-house and is the equivalent of NVQ level 3. Massage training includes body massage, hand and feet massage, facial massage, and scalp massage. This will enable you to provide full and part treatments to your clients. Below is a simple list of treatments you could consider but with creativity you can expand on these offerings.

​

• ·       90-minute aromatherapy full body massage

• ·       45-minute aromatherapy facial

• ·       30-minute aromatherapy express back massage

• ·       45-minute aromatherapy back, neck and shoulder massage

​

These are just ideas, and you can be more creative with your descriptions to attract clientele.

In terms of offering bespoke aromatherapy treatments and prescriptions, you could make blends that are more specific to symptoms of certain conditions.
