Thai massage school

Maria Mercati's Thai Massage Practitioner course qualifies you to practice professionally and be eligible for insurance both as a student and as a qualified therapist. It's intensive unique approach covers all aspects of Thai massage - wellness, treatment, feet and on-site neck & shoulder enabling you to use it for a tailor made 20 minute treatment or a 2 hour wellness massage.

The course is specifically structured to include the location and function of 20 main ENERGY acu-points so as to make them highly relevant to the techniques being taught at our Thai Massage School.

Being able to accurately locate specific energy-points will totally transform your ability to treat your patient's problems. This valuable knowledge will enable you to feel and locate pathological changes in the underlying tissues which are essential for the use of Thai massage as a therapy instead of just a routine.

There are now many Thai massage schools in this country, most of which teach a routine as we do. This will enable you to perform a whole body wellness Thai massage lasting for 60 -150 minutes depending on the client's needs.

However, in addition, myself and Peter Packard who teaches this course with me will explain the how, the why, the when and the how much of each technique and which acupoints to be used for treating different patients and conditions. This will enable you to specifically treat musculo-skeletal problems and sports injuries.

At the Thai massage school we will also teach you to give a Thai foot massage and how to give a Thai neck & shoulder on-site massage - both of which will prove to be valuable within an income generating context.

This course is recognised by EMBODY in London which is affliated to CThA the Complementary Therapists Association. Maria Mercati was elected Chair of The Thai Yoga Massage Association (2006) who helped set the basic standards.

Anatomy and physiology course
If you do not have an acceptable Anatomy & Physiology ( A & P ) qualification , we offer a separate anatomy and physiology course. You need to complete this A&P course in order to receive a Thai Massage Master Practitioner Diploma.

Our anatomy & physiology lessons are specifically  structured  to make them highly relevant to the techniques being taught at this Thai Massage School.  This method allows you to tailor your treatment with confidence, sensitivity and effectiveness to the various needs of your clients. The greater the understanding you have of the techniques the more effective your treatments will become.

We have been teaching successful courses for many years. Over time we have fine- tuned our teaching methods in the Thai Massage School to make them very effective in helping students become highly proficient in Thai massage.

Our Thai massage courses are highly intensive teaching many practical skills with emphasis on their use in the treatment of patients.

Thai massage is used to not only maintain good health physically, mentally and emotionally but also as a means of treating a range of pathological conditions of the musculo-skeletal system such as lower back pain, sciatica, fibrositis etc. etc.

What people say about the courses

Edward Clarke:
I spent a year in Thailand studying Thai massage in many different types of schools some of them government accredited institutes & others no more than a master & his living room, but nowhere have I come across the teaching & course standards I found at Bodyharmonics.

They are a well organised inspirational group of people with the perfect etiqute, knowledge, humour & passion to provide a unique and unmatchable learning experience. The body of knowledge I reeived in the short time of attending the centre has continued to surprise me throughout all my related studies, at its seemingly endless usefullness and its aplyabilty to not only my practice but every day life.

I would recommend the centre to anyone as I doubt you will find a more readily accessible source of information in such a relaxed & caring enviroment no matter how far you travelled
