Sports Massage Certification (300 hours)


Prepare yourself to work in Clinics, Sporting Events and Gyms, on all types of athletes.


Sports Massage is a special form of massage that is commonly used before, during, and after athletic events.  It assists in preparing athletes to perform at their peak level by relieving swelling, reducing muscle tension, promoting flexibility, preventing injuries and draining away fatigue.  It can help prevent those minor injuries that so often get in the way of performance and achievement, whether a person is an athlete or a once a week jogger.
