Massage Certificate and Diploma Course 2016 (6 Days)

15th-20th November 2016

Since 2008, the demand for our private 'One on One' training program has kept us so busy that we have not had the time to do a group course. However! We are excited to announce the first group course since 2008 is scheduled for November 2016 in Mount Martha. Thanks for all the recent enquiries for a group course that have sparked this event. Act fast as we have very limited spots available!

Learn-Bowen-Therapy-Melbourne


Very limited spots available.. here is why!?

We believe 'One on One' training and learning in small groups is the best way to learn massage for obvious reasons. One not so obvious reason, is that in a large group course it is almost impossible to focus on the individuals strengths.

Most of us know that every massage therapist treats differently from the next, even if they come qualified from the same organisation. That and this next point is very important to remember when considering where you will learn massage. Will the training you undertake, cater for you to become the best therapist you can be based on your natural talents and abilities?

Our training programs do! You can rest assured that as well as learning a comprehensive, effective, unique, exciting form of intuitive massage and bodywork, we will help you develop the natural skills your bring! eg.. The strong young personal trainer gentleman, is going to be working differently to the middle aged woman, even if it's only that their physical techniques will be different; but more than likely many things will be different. A mother can bring a completely different atmosphere to a massage treatment than a 'blokie' personal trainer will perhaps?

So.. to ensure the highest standard of training we can offer we will be keeping the group to maximum of 5 students. The Certificate component will be conducted over 3 days and the Diploma over 6 days. Through our online portal you can start to learn and practice as soon as you enrol with a deposit($850 deposit for the certiticate course and $1250 for the Diploma).

Through the IICT one can get student insurance on enrolment for those who are not yet practicing therapists. This way you can have piece of mind when you start practicing.

Who is the course for?

This course is for anyone who is interested in developing your skills as a massage therapist and bodyworker. There are no prerequisites for taking our courses. We have trained people all the way from no experience to practicing Chrios, Physios, Doctors. Through this we have seen that having pervious training is not always beneficial. Any skills you bring can definitely help you advance, but a clean slate is is just as much of an asset.

Student Testimonial

So you think you know how to massage? I answered yes to this question before my training with Bronson. After studying 3 years of Sports and Holistic massage in college, I thought I knew how to find tension and remove it from the body. I had been getting good feedback from my clients in the Spa where I work and felt my bodywork was to a high standard. As a massage therapist you never stop learning, one of the best things about the job, it keeps you interested. You can imagine my shock (and delight) when only after a few days with Bronson I’m realising how much further I can take my massage. During the 2 weeks I can honestly say I learned much more than in the 3 years of massage training in college, unbelievable but true, this is down to the style of teaching and the techniques covered.

Back in the Spa where I work, my first 2 clients could not praise my new style of massage enough. Instead of doing my usual Spa massage, which was always the same, I was able to use the techniques learned with Bronson.  To actually massage the whole body, feeling and removing the tension along the way. Client number one commented afterwards that she felt so light she thought she must surely be levitating. Client number two commented that even though she had been having deep massage for many years this was truly the best she had ever felt. She left the Spa only to return 3 days later to thank me again and leave a box of beer as way of thanks for the best massage she had ever had (I’m Irish, we like a beer).

Thank you Bronson for passing on your knowledge and I hope to study with you again in the near future, you have helped me realise that massage and bodywork can do way more than make people feel good, it can really work to heal them and help them heal themselves, amazing stuff! Best Regards, Moses
