A consultation is completed prior to the start of a treatment to ascertain the most suitable products for the client’s skin type. The skin is then deep cleansed before a suitable massage medium is applied, this may be oil, cream or a specially blended essential oil if you are qualified in pre-blended aromatherapy. 

The massage will include:  

Pressure points to clear energy channels and to stimulate the muscles and nerve endings  Massage to generally improve the circulation and texture of the skin  Lymphatic drainage to assist the lymphatic systems in removing waste and encourage healing 

On completion of the massage the skin is toned and moisturised. 

The treatment will take approximately 45 minutes without the application of a mask or 60 minutes with a mask.

To treat the skin effectively you will need to be able to diagnose the client’s skin type and use suitable products.

ABT Accreditation Courses

Most day/short training courses will be accredited by an awarding body such as Professional Beauty, ABT, BABTAC or The Beauty Guild. This means that the training school has been approved based on their course manuals, training qualifications and liability insurance. These will allow you to learn the skills needed to carry out these treatments. These are suitable for anyone wishing to work for themselves at home or as a mobile therapist.

• • Great for upskilling

• • Shorter courses – normally day courses

• • Nationally recognised

VTCT Accreditation

It was a dream of mine to be able to offer VTCT accredited courses.

To receive VTCT training you would normally have to attend college, however now adult students can enrol on fast track courses, allowing them to complete the theory in their own time.

VTCT is an international qualification meaning therapist can work worldwide. VTCT is also approved by OFQUAL (regulates qualifications & exams) so this means that the assessment criteria is stricter.

VTCT courses are more in-depth and involve a lot of theory work. More knowledge is learnt compared to accredited courses.

Theory and Practical exams will need to be taken before any certificate is issued to the student.

More advance treatments will require you to have a certain level qualification to complete the course and obtain insurance.

• • A lot more knowledge is taught

• • International qualification – work worldwide

• • Be able to offer more advanced treatments

• • Flexible learning

• • More opportunities in the industry

• • VTCT
