Eastern Facial Massage Diploma Course

One day course £140
This massage incorporates the neck and scalp as well as the face and it uses complementary techniques drawn from both Indian Face Massage and Japanese Face Massage. When properly administered it improves one’s beauty, removes toxins from the face and balances ki, or life force to improve overall health.

The purpose of Eastern Facial Massage is to work specifically and precisely with the facial meridians and tsubo (acupuncture points) to achieve a balance in the entire facial skin, muscles and internal organs. An Eastern Facial Massage is easily incorporated into your massage therapy routine. It gently stimulates the nervous system to increase blood and lymph circulation, reduce and prevent wrinkles, repair and balance the condition of the skin, minimize the ageing process, and leave your clients faces looking healthy and feeling great.

This unique massage routine will add an Eastern philosophical and technical approach to your facials, and will increase your repertoire of techniques to enable you to effectively treat various facial conditions. Unlike facial surgery, Eastern Facial Massage has no side effects. Anyone from infants to the elderly adult can benefit from it as a very effective method of facial care.

Japanese Hand Massage Diploma Course

One day course £105
Japanese Hand Massage is a massage of the arms and hands and is a unique blend of shiatsu and reflexology. This massage technique is exclusive to London Therapists - we aim to reintroduce the lost art of hand massage to the therapist’s repertoire!

Shiatsu (Japanese from shi, meaning finger, and atsu, meaning pressure) is a traditional Japanese healing art. It has its roots in ancient Oriental medicine and has evolved from traditional Chinese medicine and Anma, a traditional Japanese form of massage. The philosophy underlying Shiatsu is that vital energy (Qi in Chinese, Ki in Japanese) flows throughout the body in a series of channels called meridians. For many different reasons Ki can stop flowing freely and this then produces a symptom. Shiatsu can be beneficial for a wide range of conditions, from specific injuries to more general symptoms of poor health. Shiatsu for the hands uses touch to affect the flow of Ki in the meridians and techniques include gentle holding and pressing with palms, thumbs and fingers on the meridians. As the quality of the Ki changes, the symptoms associated with an imbalance in the movement of Ki will gradually improve. Shiatsu is a therapy that works on the individual as a complete being - the physical body and also on an emotional and/or mental level.

Anyone who has ever experienced a good hand massage will sigh with pleasure at the recollection. Our hands are one of the most overused parts of our body and work very hard, but in general they are sadly neglected. Even if we visit a salon for a treatment we will often only leave with beautiful nails and will probably have missed one of the greatest little physical luxuries one can experience - a hand massage. A good hand massage will help tremendously to de-stress your client, open energy channels and create a feeling of well being.
