Depending on the scope of the sports massage training course, there are different levels of depth. For example, a one-day course offers an introduction to the methodology and shows special massage techniques for loosening the muscles before and after sport. The benefits of sports massage as well as indications and contraindications are also explained. In a somewhat more comprehensive course, participants also learn about different massage products, learn a complete massage sequence on the back and legs, learn when which muscles are worked on and palpation, the palpatory examination.

depends on the provider and the scope of the training. Aspiring sports masseurs, for example, pay around CHF 350 for a short sports massage course and around CHF 700 for basic training. Ask the providers about the prices.

Both one-day and multi-day sports massage training courses are offered in Switzerland, providing a brief insight or solid basic training.

Sports massage training is basically suitable for all interested people who want to use massage techniques in a targeted and professional manner to relieve hardening and tension in the muscles and fasciae and thus contribute to faster regeneration after sport.
