Massage therapy involves the manipulation of muscles and soft tissues for relaxation, therapeutic or remedial health benefits. Massage therapists are trained professionals who understand the correct techniques to apply for their clients’ individual needs, including pain relief, stress reduction and injury management. Massage courses are generally divided into two categories: relaxation massage courses and remedial massage courses. As a trained massage therapist, you might pursue a career in a relaxation or health spa, or in an allied health environment such as a remedial massage clinic.
