| What does a typical Raynor massage class look like? |
|
Every massage class we offer is generally focused on the 3 pillars of our practical, hands-on massage education:
Giving massages: We feel that it is very crucial that our students start massaging from the very beginning of the course. We believe that to study massage means to learn by doing. In this way one can, in a very short period of time, develop the sense of touch needed to be able to; connect to the massage recipient, detect tension in muscles and connective tissue, appreciate the energetic relationship between massage therapist and client, and begin to witness the impact of different manipulations on the body. Learning by doing is the biggest focus in any Raynor massage class.
Receiving massages: You can’t really become a good massage therapist without experiencing all of the massage techniques on yourself. Receiving a massage treatment will give you great insight into how each massage technique actually ‘feels’. This will help you to develop a sensitivity for the reactions and bodily cues of your future clients. Understanding your clients needs will be the key to your success as a masseuse. Demonstration by our teachers: A Raynor massage
class always includes teacher demonstrations of the various massage techniques
All practical work in our massage classes will be done under the supervision of our teachers. They will also use creative teaching strategies including media-like audio and video presentations to enhance the learning experience.

enjoyable environment. He excelled in his teaching ability and his knowledge
was unquestionable and all questions were answered to full satisfaction."
