How to Become a Holistic Massage and Beauty Therapist


If you're tired of your existing job, and are looking for a change in direction to your current career, have you thought about becoming a beauty, and holistic massage therapist instead? There are lots of ways into the holistic therapy industry including working in spas, hotels, or simply on your own, but in order to gain the right skills, it's important that you have proper training. Also, having a recognised diploma or other therapist qualifications will make it easier to find work too. Unless you opt for a full-time college degree, or a HND course, learning to become a qualified therapist can be very flexible. You can book one day Indian head massage courses, or join a fast-track beauty course at the weekend. It might take a bit longer to cover the many different techniques but you'll still be able to work in your normal day job while you train.

Many people turn to natural therapies to help them relax, or to recover from a specific injury, and there are many different types of massage therapies to choose from today. If you've always enjoyed beauty therapy, and alternative massage treatments yourself, then it's a perfect choice for a new career. But how do you go about becoming a trained and qualified therapist? There are many different companies that offer a wide range of beauty and massage training courses. From reflexology, hot stone therapy, Thai foot massage courses, to Indian head massage courses, you can choose diploma courses in every style of massage possible.

It's also very useful to study a bit of biology and anatomy too. It's essential if you're hoping to offer sports massage therapy, or reflexology, specifically to help long-term injuries. The holistic massage therapy and beauty therapy market has grown enormously over the past decade, and now top hotels all offer in-house spas that include beauty treatments such as manicure and pedicures, anti-aging facials, waxing, as well as all sorts of massage too. The employment opportunities, once you're trained, are fantastic.
