Learn More About This Sports Massage Course
Intro
The role of a sports massage therapist is an all-encompassing one and can be as much about treating injuries as it is preventing them. There are also aspects of assessing conditions, aiding rehabilitation and dealing with the emotional side of pain.
Sports massage isn’t solely reserved for elite athletes and sportspeople and while it can be incredibly effective for these groups, massage techniques can be adapted for everyone from occasional gym goers to office workers.
Due to the sheer variety of people that massage can benefit, employment opportunities are never in short supply. Developing your own clinic or practice in a self-employed capacity is an incredibly popular route. There’s also the option to work for an existing establishment or find work at sporting events, such as marathons and triathlons.
Massage therapy also presents a fantastic CPD opportunity for already qualified personal trainers, Pilates instructors and yoga teachers.
Our sports massage course is fully accredited by YMCA Awards and recognised by both CIMSPA and REPs. Currently, we deliver in London, Manchester, Birmingham and Cardiff, with more venues across the UK to be announced very soon.
You can discover more about sports massage by reading our career guide or sampling our bespoke student manual.
What You'll Learn
Sports massage is an inherently hands-on discipline so it’s only right that the course reflects that. The skills and knowledge you’ll gain during your journey will empower you to achieve great success and truly impact the lives of your clients.
Here’s a brief overview of what you’ll encounter:
In conjunction with the above, you’ll also learn about all-important health and safety, the history of and development of sports massage, and more.
How You'll be Assessed
To make things as engaging as possible and to give you the best chance of passing first time, we’ll give you the chance to demonstrate your theory and practical knowledge in a range of ways.
Entry Requirements
To enrol on this course you’ll ideally possess a Level 2 Fitness Instructor qualification in the context of Exercise to Music or Gym.
Timetable
Before you embark on your first practical weekend, we normally recommend at least 8 weeks of home study and that’s based on an hour a day.
During this time, you’ll have opportunity to familiarise yourself with your bespoke manuals and the various resources available on LES (the Learner Engagement System).

Easy to learn
2015-04-14The online classes are a real help if you struggle revising by yourself. It's just like being in a classroom. Everything is explained very well and the tutors are really helpful. The weekends go really quick, most of the time spent in the gym where you learn a lot.
