Massage Program
Professional Massage Therapy Program
Professional Massage Program
The Beginning part of the Professional Massage Program includes Anatomy, Physiology, and Kinesiology combined with an introduction to Theory and Demonstration of Massage. Proper procedure in massaging, record keeping, hygiene, contraindications, proper draping, and addressing the client`s problem areas are the focus points during this part of the program. After completing this students will then move on to the clinical portion of the program.
Advanced Student Clinic
The Advanced Student Clinic is a very important phase where each student will gain more knowledge and develop hands on experience in a clinical setting. This is an important time to work hard on the professional techniques they have learned and need to become a professional massage therapist. This will include perfecting client intake and interview, record keeping, sanitary and hygiene procedures. Additional advanced techniques and massage routines will be fully covered during this part of the program. These techniques will include Shiatsu, Lomi Lomi and Chair Massage. With these advanced techniques and the other optional advanced techniques available, every student will have enough confidence and time to polish the skills need to excel as a Professional Massage Therapist. At Elite Massage Academy, we strongly focus on teaching correct form, posture and proper body mechanics to ensure that each student will have a lengthily, healthy and successful career in the Professional world of Massage.
Anatomy, Physiology and Kinesiology will continue to be covered but focusing on where a student may be having difficulty in a specific subject. At Elite Massage Academy we strongly focus on each individual so it is never a “Keep up or Fall Behind” program.
Professional Preparation and Evaluation
This closing part of the program focuses on the final evaluation of massage techniques, routines and preparation of the Hawaii State Exam. Each student is met individually to discuss evaluations made by Elite Massage Academy’s staff to see if any weakness a student may have has improved to a higher standard. It is the ultimate goal at Elite Massage Academy for each student to pass the Hawaii State Exam and excel as a Professional Massage Therapist.
