The Brandon Raynor's School of Natural Therapies has been teaching worldwide since its start in 1997 teaching short massage courses in Sydney, Australia. We strive to make our massage courses in Edmonton, and throughout the world, the best there are available. Our massage techniques, style and our overall treatment are cutting edge, effective and highly sought after across the world. Of course as well as studying massage in Edmonton you could travel to one of 25 cities worldwide to complete a course with our school. We hold massage courses in London, Australia, New Zealand as well as many other places throughout Canada. Hands-On Teaching and LearningWe design our courses with you, the consumer, therapist and potential practitioner in mind. Our aim is to teach you as much about massage and facilitate you being able to perform an excellent massage therapy treatment in as small amount a time as possible. We do this by not teaching you things that will distract you from the fundamental qualities that make up an excellent massage therapist.We don't believe that reciting Latin names for muscles or knowing the names of the every bump in every bone is what it takes to be an outstanding massage therapist. Nor do we believe that being able to do the same set of routine moves on every client in a mechanical fashion. Instead clients go away feeling that they have received their best massage treatment. We believe that the qualities that make a good massage therapist are based on the practitioner's ability to feel exactly where muscle tension lies and their ability to get rid of it. It is this ability that we design our massage courses upon.
We do, of course, teach all the contraindications to massage, hygiene, professional ethics etc but the practical part of our course is totally focused on finding muscle tension and getting rid of it. In order to get rid of tension we recognize that one part of the body affects another so we need to source the root of tension in the body and loosen it - just like pulling a weed out from its roots in the garden. In this way we keep the focus of our training on teaching you to be an excellent massage therapist without getting you sidetracked into unnecessary details that can actually make you lose your focus. Just like a good cook knows more about the look, feel, smell and taste of food than s/he does about the chemical composition of the food, the proper massage therapist is an artist who has a feel for muscles and a sense for the subtle energy systems of the body rather than they have a rote learned knowledge of every Latin name for each muscle. A radical teaching and learning approach!Are you ready to learn massage at one of the world's most respected massage schools, brought to you right to the heart of Edmonton?Would you like to learn massage in a way that respects massage as an ancient art form? Would you like to learn on a course that doesn't bore you? Would you like to learn in a small group? Does learning by avoiding jargon filled class appeal? Does learning in an intensive way over a short period of time appeal to you?
If you answered yes to any of the questions above then consider learning massage at Brandon Raynor's School of Natural Therapies in Edmonton! When you come to a massage course with us we won't waste your time teaching you about things that you will never use in your career as a massage therapist. We will teach you only what it takes to make you into an outstanding massage therapist. We will keep you focused on practical skills and teach you massage techniques from around the world, drawing on techniques from styles such as Hawaiian Lomi Lomi massage, Japanese shiatsu massage, Deep Tissue massage, Swedish massage, Acupressure massage, reflexology and aromatherapy. The Raynor DifferenceRaynor massage, as our massage style has come to be known, incorporates the best of massage techniques from all over the world, plus incorporates many powerful techniques developed by Brandon Raynor, a Naturopath who has trained extensively in Eastern forms of natural therapies such as Ayurveda and Chinese and Japanese Medicine. Brandon Raynor has travelled all over the world researching massage styles and techniques and adapting the best of those techniques into his unique form of massage called Raynor massage. This continually evolving form of massage therapy is now being offered in Edmonton, Canada in our 5 day Raynor Massage Certificate Course and our Raynor Massage Diploma Course. Our 5 day course is a "getting started" massage courses that teaches you enough about Raynor massage that you will be able to perform a full body massage on your friends, family and even get started as a massage therapist if you can only spare this amount of time for your training.
Our Diploma Course is designed for people that would like to start a new career in the massage industry or for existing health professionals that would like to expand their skill range to include the wide variety of techniques and philosophy that make up Raynor massage. Our massage courses in Edmonton are focused on practical learning. Almost 80% of class time is spent massaging, being massaged, or watching the teacher explain a demonstration massage. The other 20% of class time is spent discussing theory such as contraindications, hygiene, professional ethics and the qualities of various aromatherapy oils and the theory of foot reflexology. Raynor massage is a very deep tissue massage. However when you learn our style you will be able to adjust it totally to suit the particular needs of the client. You will be able to carry out a light relaxation style of massage as well as a very powerful and effective deep tissue massage incorporating lots of pressure points and removing the deepest seated tension that people can hold throughout their body.
We don't teach a routine form of massage. We teach people how to find the tension in a person's muscles and how to get rid of that tension. We show people how one area of tension in the body can affect another area and we will show you how to effectively get rid of that tension. We show you not just how to massage the common areas of the body that most massage therapists do such as the back, legs and arms but we also show you the importance of feet and hand massage, face and scalp massage and most important of all - abdominal massage. The abdomen in Chinese medicine is considered to be the centre of the person's being so massaging the abdomen can have a very beneficial effect upon the whole person. For many people abdominal massage can "bring out" a lot of old emotions held there. This "emotional release" can be very beneficial for the person as old patterns of stagnation, both physical and emotional are released.

Registered Massage Therapists vs Raynor TherapistsWhy spend 3 years at a big massage college just so you can use the title therapist? While the big massage schools have monopolised and tried to control the massage industry with long courses and set massage routines, they haven't managed to monopolise effective massage! Raynor Massage is an incredibly effective massage which you can learn on one of our short and intensive massage courses. In our Short Massage Courses you can have a great new career, get all of the insurance covers necessary and be able to give an incredible massage.
