Course Content
This covers the extra requirements for the VTCT level 3 diploma. It elaborates on the contents of part 1 and includes more supervised training including face massage, chakras and meridians. To obtain the VTCT qualification, written assignments must be completed as well as two case studies of three treatments each. This is covered over a designated home study period, after which a final assessment is arranged. The final assessment includes a practical covering Hot Stone treatment, full body massage and face massage. There is also a theory paper covering the course content. It is expected that the necessary anatomy / physiology has already been covered previously, but if that is not the case, any systems not covered must be met by simultaneous home study.
