Massage is such a super therapy & one I use every day in my work with animals.

 At LGS we are now teaching Merishia Massage.

Why study Merishia Massage? Incorporating Swedish and Sports Massage Techniques. The course also focuses on deep tissue mobilisation techniques, releasing tension in the muscle & other soft tissues & enhancing movement of the joints. The techniques can be used to aid sports performance, support rehabilitation & improve general well-being.

Massage is a wonderful way to achieve relaxation & reduce the risk of injury.

Learning to massage enables YOU to assess where there is tension & discomfort, & then work on releasing those areas with simple but extremely effective techniques.

We are only taking small groups to enable a friendly but professional approach enabling students to gain the most from the practical learning tasks. You are also supported with a comprehensive online resource package including videos, diagrams, quizzes & handout material.

The 6 unit course takes approximately a year to complete combining theory & practical sessions covering assessment, massage, stretching & mobilization techniques that will improve an animal’s suppleness & capabilities, aid in rehabilitation from injury & help to maintain or improve performance and well-being in life.

2025/26 intake starts in June 25 & the practical dates will be Saturdays for the Equine group & Sundays for the Canine group.

This is a Level 4 Diploma Equine/Canine Merishia Massage course approved for further education accredited with NCFE (Ofqual regulated)
