There are 40+.​While there are five classical TYPES of strokes (plus two more for a total of seven categories), indeed there are 40+ individual strokes within those categories!​In this course, you will learn ALL 40 primary strokes—All the strokes you need to give an AMAZING massage.​Classical Swedish or Western Massage, as it is often called, is incredibly versatile. It has all the strokes and techniques you will ever need to SUCCEED IN MASSAGE - INCLUDING energy work, deep tissue, and stretching.Yes, I just said that :)You do not need to know Reiki or Trigger Point Therapy or take other exotic Eastern massage classes to succeed. All you need is Classical Swedish Massage with all it has to offer, and here’s why…Western Swedish Massage has been downplayed for years in favor of many other isolated or exotic methods. However, most massage schools still teach Swedish Massage, or some variation of Swedish Massage, as their foundation for learning. But in my hiring experience as a massage spa owner, I found that most therapists consistently used less than 10 of the 40 strokes and techniques available, having not been taught a full-spectrum Swedish Course in the schools they had attended and graduated from.So, this course is for anyone who wishes to explore the full foundations of Swedish Massage and understand it as a full spectrum modality.If you’re a professional, it's time to capitalize on what you already know! It's time to expand, deepen your knowledge, and experience the full range and power of Classical Swedish Massage.If you’re a massage enthusiast looking to learn what professionals know, and how to give your family and friends the best massage, then this course is for you as well!If you’re exploring massage therapy as a career transition, this course will help you determine if massage is right for you as a career.After learning all 40 Swedish Strokes, you'll see why you will never need anything else to SUCCEED in massage!​​I am so happy you are here!
