Therapeutic massage includes the most important massage methods for successful treatments in the context of alternative and complementary medicine. It combines classical massage, foot reflexology and manual lymphatic drainage. In training to become a therapeutic masseur/therapeutic masseuse, participants learn the methodological skills of the individual methods and how to combine them. As the body is connected via different systems, it is important for therapy to reach these individual systems and offer the client the best possible combination of methods for their complaints.
Therapeutic massage: training to practice an alternative medical method
Would you like to complete a massage training course as part of alternative medicine? In the therapeutic massage training course, participants learn various massage techniques. After completing the course, they will be able to offer classic massage, foot reflexology and manual lymphatic drainage as therapeutic methods. In order to be able to practice the therapeutic activity, medical basics are also part of the learning content of the massage training. The practice-oriented training for therapeutic massage comprises 740 attendance hours and 1090 learning hours in accordance with the EMR hour requirement. During this time, you will learn about patient safety, pharmacology, communication and health awareness. You will also need to be able to take a medical history and make a diagnosis in order to carry out therapeutic measures. The specialist knowledge in therapeutic massage is rounded off with hygiene, first aid, medical terminology, psychology and psychosomatics.
The aim of the massage training course is to enable graduates to meet the requirements of a massage practice and to enable them to practise therapeutic massage independently. As a massage therapist, graduates can offer classical massage in order to exert its healing effect on the arterial system and the musculature. As a therapeutic massage, foot reflexology can transfer regenerative forces to the corresponding organs via nerve points on the feet. As a decongestive measure, therapeutic massage therapists can use manual lymphatic drainage as a form of physical therapy.
