Professional Massage Training provided by the College of Classical Massage in Brighton.
ITEC Diploma in On-Site Massage
Seated massage is an extremely versatile and practical technique to add to your skills. This technique can be applied through clothes which can be ideal to take into company workplaces to help staff who may be feeling tired, stressed and/or run down. This can help their overall wellbeing and work performance. It can also be applied in the treatment room as a short relaxing massage and could be especially beneficial for people who may have problems lying down on a massage couch for example pregnant women and clients with mobility problems.
You will learn the techniques of classical massage and how they are adapted to be used on the on-site chair. We will look at using the technique with and without oils. The massage routine can be adapted to provide 10, 15 or 30 minute massages

About Michael GibbonsMAO, MJMA, BCMA, IHBC, IIHHT, IIST.
I qualified as a massage therapist in 1991 and work using many styles: Sports, Relaxation, Remedial, and Thai Yoga Massage. I am trained in Biodynamic Cranio Sacral therapy and Classical Manipulation inspired by the work of John McTimoney.
I am trained as an Adult Education Teacher and teach Sports Massage, Advanced Massage and on the Foundation Degree in Complementary Healthcare, for Sussex Downs College and validated by the University of Brighton. Iam also Director and Principal of the College of Classical Massage Ltd established 1999.
In 1996 I undertook a 4 year course in Body Manipulation at a college in Oxford, graduating with a Diploma. Because I choose not to register with the emerging legally regulated professional body, the General Chiropractic Council (GCC), I am unable to disclose the real course title or the college I trained at.
From all my different trainings I consider myself a well rounded body therapist and from it I now practice what I call Structural Rebalancing, which is a term I feel encompasses all that I do.
I love the work that I do and it gives me great pleasure to be able to impart my knowledge to others and play an important part in the development of their skills. People have often asked me don’t I get bored with doing massage. To me massage is all about expression and as long as I continue to express it as an artform it will continue to be one of the biggest passions in my life along with all the other forms of work that I do.
