Entry Requirements
A certificate in body massage is preferred but not essential. The Indian head massage course does not cover basic anatomy, physiology or massage.
If you wish to come onto the course without a background in these subjects you will be expected to work in your own time with the help of homework which will be provided by the school.
Previous experience in massage or attendance at an introduction to massage weekend prior to the course is necessary if you are not working towards or do not have a massage certificate. We can also arrange individual tuition in basic massage techniques.
Examination System
Continuous assessment by means of written homework, assignments and home practice. Home study and practice is over a minimum period of three months following the school attendance days. A final assessment date is arranged after the home study period. Please note that a fee of £76.00 is payable for the VTCT assessment and verification which includes lifetime registration and Health & Safety modules. If you are already registered with VTCT this fee may be reduced by up to £30.00.
Qualification Attained

Further Information
The Indian head massage course includes ‘hands on’ training in Indian head massage. Course times are from 10.30 am to about 5.30 pm depending on the group size. The group size is kept below ten for individual attention.
You will learn how to assess the client and perform Indian head massage to a professional standard, plus the background knowledge necessary to setup in business. The Indian head massage diploma qualification is recognised in many countries outside the UK and gives a good grounding for further qualifications in holistic therapies.
