The Path from Therapeutic Massage to Remedial and Sports Massage
🚀 The Level 7 Diploma in Therapeutic Massage is your starting point — but the next step can take your skills even further.

🏆 Our Level 8 Diploma in Remedial and Sports Massage (equivalent to Level 4 in England) teaches you to:
✔ Assess clients in detail
✔ Create targeted treatment plans
✔ Support injury recovery and performance

⚽ Graduates work with:
Professional sports teams
Rehabilitation and injury clinics
Integrated healthcare practices
Private clinical settings

🤝 At both levels, you can join the Scottish Manual Therapist Organisation (SMTO) — supporting your professional status and keeping you connected with Scotland’s therapy community.
