This two-day Course is designed for Aromatherapists and Massage Therapists who wish to be able to massage pregnant women, babies & children with confidence.
The Course was formulated at the request of our ex-students who wished to support their clients throughout pregnancy, which, they did not previously feel confident enough to tackle. In addition they were seeing that more and more parents wanted their children massaged and they needed to know how to adapt their current techniques. As such, it has arisen from authentic 'field-conditions' and has proved extremely beneficial to those who have since used the techniques taught.
This course can be taken as two separate days.
