Vancouver Massage Courses

We at Brandon Raynor's School of Natural Therapies strive to make our massage course in Vancouver to be the best massage course in the world. We spare no expense to make it so that the massage techniques as well as our overall massage style is the most cutting edge, effective and sought after massage therapy treatment that is available anywhere in the world today.

We design our courses with you, the consumer, therapist and potential practitioner in mind. We seek 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 will make it so that clients go away feeling that they have just had the best massage treatment they have ever had.


We believe that the qualities that make a good massage therapist are based on the practitioners ability to feel exactly where muscle tension lies and the ability to get rid of it.. This is the main focus upon which we design our massage course. We also, 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 often times 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 you from the main emphasis of what it takes to be a proper massage therapist. Just like a good cook knows more about the look, feel, smell and taste of food than he/she 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.

Would you like to learn massage in a way that respects massage as an ancient art form and doesn't bore you by making a massage course into just a scientific jargon filled class that teaches you so many things that you really don't need to know just to make a course longer and make more money for the massage school? If you don't want to do a course like this then you may consider learning massage at Brandon Raynor's School of Natural Therapies in Vancouver, BC.

Raynor 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 traveled 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 Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada in our 5 day Raynor Massage Certificate Course and our 10 day 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 10 day 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 Vancouver are focused on practical learning. Almost 85% of class time is spent massaging, being massaged, or watching the teacher do a demonstration massage.The other 15% 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

Our massage style is considered to be a form of 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 patient. So you will be able to do a light relaxation style of massage as well as a very powerful and effective deep tissue massage that incorporates a lot of pressure points and is able to get rid of the deepest seated tension that many people hold throughout their body.



In fact, we don't teach a routine form of massage. What we do is teach people how to find the tension in a persons' 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 that are held there. This "emotional release" can be very beneficial for the person as old patterns of stagnation, both physically and emotionally are released.
