Become a Registered Myomassologist
Myomassology Training Program Unique To Aromatica
Aromatica offers Canada’s FIRST and ONLY Registered Myomassology Practitioner Program. Our students graduate equipped to offer a full-service practice to meet clients’ increasing demand for multi-modality, holistic treatment.
The single identifying feature about myomassology massage is that treatments are tailored to individuals, and a wide range of modalities are deployed. Myomassology gives the massage practitioner more tools in the toolbox. Basic massage focuses on Swedish massage only. Myomassology, however, treats the Swedish technique as one of a myriad of body techniques.
Myomassology Massage Training Programs Run Annually
We offer Myomassology training programs every year. Programs runs for 6 months, with students attending our residential retreat two weekends per month.
There are 6 Modules of study to complete prior to graduation. There is an easy home study component – Anatomy & Physiology. This is completed at home using a learning system which incorporates an ‘easy to read’ text book with colourful illustrations and an accompanying work book to check your progress. This allows flexibility for study time. The reading component is so necessary in this type of study and is best completed at home.
The remaining 5 modules are completed at our ten acre retreat-style centre at Mono, in the rolling hills of Hockley Valley near Shelburne and Orangeville in Ontario. Instruction Periods consist of hands-on, in-class hours instruction on Saturdays and Sundays. Each training session includes a Massage component plus the other Modalities, such as Reflexology, CranioSacral Therapy, Pregnancy Massage (includes Moxibustion to turn Mal-Positioned and Breech Babies plus Acupressure Analgesic Points for use During Labour), Acupressure & Tuina Chinese Medical Massage, Indian Head Massage, Contraction Release Therapy (CRT), Traditional Chinese Fire Cupping & Cupping Massage which are all Certification Courses. Practicum hours are completed at home and individual Certificates are issued upon completion. Classes commence at 9 am each day and finish at 5 pm. Students time is their own before and after class to explore the area’s many hiking trails, or simply relax with a book in one of our hammocks on site. Immersion in this type of hands-on training each month allows the student to focus on their studies to increase knowledge, technique, transition, flow and skill levels are enhanced considerably. It is important that students practice what they have learned in the interim periods at home between classes. Proficiency and skills are developed while completing Practicum hours at home.
