  7. Course Overview

This course goes far beyond just giving you the techniques involved with hot stone massage (though this is covered in great detail also) but gives you a full knowledge about the subject.

The course starts with a brief introduction as to what is involved in a hot stone massage and what to expect from the course, and then moves into a fuller introduction module. This larger introduction gives you a good base to build your knowledge from, as it provides the answers to the ‘Whys’ of the subject, including the benefits, facts and theories about hot stone massage, along with a little history of its origins.

Module 2 goes into more depth about the different types of stones used and the ailments and conditions this type of massage can treat. This flows nicely into module 3 that goes further into explaining why you would want to give hot stone massage and why your clients will want the treatment, this also includes the benefits of setting up a business as a practicing masseur.

Module 4 talks about different types of stones and how they should be used (including the temperatures they should be heated to). The module gives you an incredible knowledge about the muscles of the body, along with outlining safety concerns, and, importantly, when not to give a hot stone massage.

A practical, hands-on module; module 5 guides you through how to provide a hot stone massage. This takes you from the basics, such as the equipment you’ll need, safety concerns to be aware of, and how to set up a treatment room, to how to heat stones and techniques and tips on how to actually give a massage. Additionally, there are a number of secret tricks of the trade included that will help you to become more proficient, quicker.

Once you have the basics down, module 6 helps to increase your skill level by guiding you through how to become a pro. This is not just about improving your techniques but how to create a better overall experience for your clients, how to market yourself, be better organised, what to charge, and how to grow your business.

Module 7 eases you towards the end of the Hot Stone Massage Diploma Course, by giving a brief summary of all the areas covered, so that you can confirm understanding or go over any parts that you may need more time on. This module also gives a guide on what to do next to begin your journey of running your own hot stone massage business.
