Our Table Thai CE courses are designed to build upon the principles of professional touch that are taught in massage school. Therefore, we require our students to have a license to practice massage therapy as a prerequisite to taking our Thai Massage courses. Having this prerequisite allows us to place a strong focus on technique application during our classes. Previous Thai Massage experience is not required to enjoy sharing all of the incredible new bodywork techniques you will learn in class. Current Thai Massage practitioners, join us to reinvigorate and inspire your current practice. Our one day Table Table Rx courses can be taken at any time, in any order.

Table techniques are applied with the therapist keeping at least one foot on the floor at all times. Some techniques may require LMTs to sit on the table and have one or both knees on the table at the same time. Modifications that keep the feet on the floor are presented as available.

At the end of the training LMTs will receive a CE certificate of completion to verify board approved continuing education and satisfy massage licensure renewal requirements. Additionally, LMTs will have a unique sequence of techniques that can be used as a stand-alone treatment or integrated in with other techniques as indicated with each client.

A strong, sturdy and wide massage table is recommended for serious practitioners. LMTs are strongly advised to prepare to complete practice sessions immediately after each class. Post-class practice is considered the self-study component to each table CE course.
