The overall aim of this course is to develop knowledge and understanding of muscular- skeletal injuries and conditions and learn all the relevant skills to provide sports massage or pain therapy in all environments. So those who want to work in a sports environment or with professional or amateur athletes independently will benefit from this course, in addition to those therapists who wish to learn new skills for treating clients with injuries, chronic pain or restricted range of motion; skills can therefore be combined with existing therapies to widen scope of treatment and also treating new types of clients.
