Doing an online theory course in anatomy, physiology, business skills, and marketing is ok. Even doing a webinar or an online workshop to sharpen your skill, i.e., " learning how to use your hot stones differently,"... is alright and fun.

But to learn how to perform any/all forms of massage therapy with a physical person or learn a new technique or skill in massage therapy online is forbidden by industry regulators and global bodies.

It is acceptable to re-do a massage course IF YOU HAVE ALREADY DONE THE FULL PRACTICAL CERTIFICATE COURSE OF THE SAME TITLE IN A CLASSROOM FIRST.

We strongly advise those who have done online training to re-do their course through accredited hands-on therapy lecturers at an internationally accredited training provider (not an online accredited course provider).
