Accreditation
After completion of the Discover Massage Australia weekend intensive, 99% hands-on Whole Body Massage Course, you most definitely qualify for membership of the Massage Association of Australia, and yes you are definitely able to get insurance through them,
Secondly as we do not run Certificate 4 courses you cannot get accreditation for Health funds. Our courses are not recognised by the Australian Qualification Framework but does provide you a pathway to membership with the Massage Association of Australia and insurance to practice massage professionally.
Please allow us to reiterate and explain further.We did seriously consider becoming a Registered Training Organisation but after discussing this with my former graduates, all of which are experiencing great success, it was unanimous, to continue to do what we do best, offer amazing Hands on Practical Skills that see our Graduates do very well within the industry and all at an affordable price.
The Only Benefit we see from completing an accredited massage therapy course is Recognition from health funds, which really isn’t an issue if marketed correctly. We continue to get Certificate 4 and remedial diploma Graduates complete our whole body massage course, purely because they never had the confidence to give a practical, high quality and thorough Massage, as all they had done was mostly Theory.
Every year over 1000 Massage therapists quit, Why?? One of the main reasons we believe is because they did not know how to achieve amazing results with their treatments and they don't know how to market their business to attract more and more clients
"Let us ask you, If you had a muscular problem that was causing you a lot of discomfort, who would you rather go to? Someone who offers Health rebates and is accredited or someone who can most likely fix your problem?”
Finally, accredited massage courses will cost you between $4,000 - $8,000.
What we offer at Discover Massage Australia is Affordable, Practical Problem Solving Solutions that you can put into practice immediately upon completion of the course. THERE IS SIMPLY NO OTHER MASSAGE THERAPY TRAINING COURSES LIKE OURS.
Following is a testimony from Andrew Short who completed our advanced course on the 8th April 2006.
Discover Massage Australia
Thanks for a great day on Saturday 8th April 06 at Parramatta RSL Club.
It's unbelievable what happened to me in the 24 hours since the completion of the massage course.
I went straight home and treated my wife's Tennis Elbow, with astounding results. Her pain was gone almost immediately and she regained the freedom of movement she hasn't enjoyed for months.
The next day I went to my sons' Soccer game. I massaged a player who had an impact on his upper back some weeks previous. I did his whole back and his hamstrings. When I released some pressure on the superior tendon he remarked that he did not play much the year before because of a groin strain which was eventually traced to this very same tendon. He lasted the whole game, without a worry.
When we got home, my son said he had injured his wrist at work last week, but he doubted that I could do much for it. I just said, "let me have a go at it" and I did some CTR on his whole arm (after I did his back and shoulders). He burst into the bathroom an hour later, where I was enjoying a relaxing bath, showing me he now had a vast increase in the mobility of his wrist. The pain had almost gone.
And all this in 24 hours.
In hindsight, I think I did the second massage course for a bit of creditability, you know, having another certificate says, "I told you so" to the doubters. But I have to tell you, if so much can happen in one day, it's looking good from here.
I must stress that the problems I've listed above are not cured, but with the added confidence you've given me, I can treat these and more people better and better.
Thanks again.
Shorty.
