Basic Module Legs & Feet Massage

The Basic Module Legs & Feet Massage is one of the next three basic modules, after the Basic Module Back & Shoulders Massage. After massaging the back and shoulders, client’s most often request that their legs and feet be massaged. This request comes, for example, from people who sport a lot using their legs, like runners, football players, cyclists or swimmers. Hikers also benefit greatly from a good massage of the legs and feet. And, of course, people who are mainly standing all day at their job could really make use of such a massage. A legs and feet massage is certainly a welcome relief for the built up muscle tension in those areas, not to mention it is easily accessible, and has a quick positive effect.

During this basic module, the order and the build-up in pressure of the techniques are discussed. You will learn effleurages (strokes), kneading, frictions and other types of grips for an extensive and varied massage. The necessary theory is also included. The Knowledge Center contains teaching material that specifically deals with massaging the legs and feet. Because you will massage both in a supine and prone position, attention is also paid on how the client can carefully turn over on the massage table.

When participating in this module, you have access to this online learning environment. The period of access to the Knowledge Center is extended, so that you can absorb the theory about the legs and feet massage. This also gives you the opportunity to reread the lesson at a later time. At the moment, the Knowledge Center is in Dutch only, but you can use the translation function of your web browser.

In addition, you will have access to the legs and feet massage component of the basic module. This includes a description of all the techniques accompanied with color photos. There is also a video of each technique, in which you can see exactly how each technique is executed, and you can hear the instructions clearly. The spoken instructions in the videos are in Dutch, but it is still educational to watch them. You can also download the practical overviews of the techniques on two A4 sheets to have with you while massaging. These are ideal for executing the order of the techniques correctly.

Available Formats to Learn Legs and Feet Massage

• As a standalone module after completing the Basic Module Back & Shoulders Massage or The Workshop for Two.
• In combination with another basic module in one day.
• In combination with all the other basic modules (total of 4 modules) over 2 days or in 1 weekend.
• We are still considering whether we also want to offer this module in a fully online workshop.

English modules are done with two participants at the practice of the trainer. Therefore, there is a lot of personal attention, and you are also massaged by the trainer.

Advanced Modules

In addition to the four basic modules, there are six advanced modules: one module for new techniques on the legs and feet, three modules for the back, each of which comprises new techniques, one module with new techniques for the neck and face, and one module for the chest and abdomen. We are still working on translating these modules to English. We do not yet know when they will be available.

Foot Massage Course

Is massaging the feet really your thing? For example, because you are a pedicurist, do toe reading, or just because you like to give a foot massage? Then you can also opt for the foot massage course. This is separate from the modules mentioned above and only focuses on the feet. You will also learn some foot reflexology techniques, which are not covered in this module.
