Reed Courses Student Testimonial on our CPD certified Massage Course -
Abha H - 10/10
The International Massage course is exceptional in value. The course is comprehensively laid out, each component labelled with an initial written notes, followed by details excellent videos which actually show exactly how to massage.
The course covers all types of massage such as Lomi Lomi massage to hot stone massage.
I have benefited enormously from registering on this course. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending this course to anyone as I am aware of how much they would benefit.
I gave my friend a massage just for fun & she was amazed & told me she thinks I am the best masseuse ever. She should know as she has regular massages from professional. So what are you waiting for? Go ahead sign up for the course.
By the way no one is paying me to say this, I am saying what I believe to be true.

My Best Idea
Taking the International Massage Diploma Course at New Skills Academy was my best idea and my best investment in a long time.
The flexible timing, professional yet easy understand material helped me to change career (and life) in no time. Absolutely brilliant.

The Content & Layout are Spot-on
I've only just started this course but already the content layout and info are spot on.
I was only going to do the 1st module the evening I got it but four hours later I had almost completed four! I just couldn't put it down.
I have just finished an online aromatherapy course but the massage section was vague so this complements it perfectly I would recommend to anyone. I will be using this as a business but it's also perfect for people to learn for friends and family! So glad I found it.
Thank you

It is fascinating and easy to understand
I am a qualified beauty therapist wishing to extend my practice. I found this course online, I am about half way through at present and am extremely surprised at the detail this course includes.
It is fascinating and easy to understand.
The instructional videos are well made and easy to follow. Personally I feel I need to take a long time to practice each massage and to take notes to read and re read to ensure I am confident before treating any of my clients. I would recommend this course provider and in particular this course of massage to everyone it's amazing !!!
Thank you
