📖 Massage Education in Estonia – What Does It Mean?
In Estonia, massage education is regulated and has two main professional levels:
✨ Masseuse, Level 5 (Massöör, tase 5) – Kutsetunnistus
This means the person has completed a professional school, learned anatomy, physiology, and a wide range of massage techniques. They are qualified to work professionally and safely with the body.
✨ Massage Therapist, Level 6 (Massaažiterapeut, tase 6) – Täiendkoolitus
This is an additional, advanced training after becoming a masseuse. A massage therapist goes deeper into rehabilitation, therapy plans, and works more closely with health-related conditions.
💡 In short:
Level 5 = strong foundation and professional practice.
Level 6 = advanced knowledge, therapy focus.
So when you see someone with a ✨kutsetunnistus✨ you can be sure they went through full training to become a professional.
Stay relaxed 🧡
