Description

Learn Gua Sha from best-selling massage course instructor, Mark Perren-Jones

What people are saying about this Gua sha massage course:

"Mark Perren-Jones' massage courses and instruction proves to be the most expansive I have ever experienced for my practice.  I have been in surgical practice and also alternative medicine for many years.  His knowledge base is fantastic and the method of delivery is engaging and easy to follow, and want to!  I have enrolled in three other massage courses after the first one because it is surely to not disappoint." Dr. S. H.

There is a reason that so many of the best massage therapists use Gua Sha (also known as instrument assisted soft tissue massage therapy and Graston technique).

It loosens muscles, treats pain, is used for better health, is great for facial rejuvenation and helps systemic problems such as digestive and respiratory problems.

Mark has been using Gua Sha to treat thousands of his massage clients and his own body for over 25 years and has seen remarkable results in his massage clinic.

You do not need any massage training! In this course, Mark teaches you everything you need to know to effectively treat :

  • your own pain and your family, friends and massage clients

  • as an anti-aging tool for the face-a non-surgical facelift!

  • health conditions such as constipation, insomnia and headaches

You will learn how to detect and break up scar tissue, adhesions and tissues that cause pain and dysfunction easily, quickly and painlessly.

If you are a massage therapist this will not only get you better results with your clients but also save your hands as well!

Gua sha is a healing technique of traditional East Asian medicine. Sometimes called ‘coining, spooning or scraping’,

You do not need to buy any expensive tools. You can use things as simple as the lid of a jar, a Chinese soup spoon or even just a coin.

In fact, modern research shows Gua sha produces an anti-inflammatory and immune protective effect that persists for days following a single Gua sha treatment. This is why it has been effectively on pain, stiffness, fever, chill, cough, wheeze, nausea and vomiting and many other health conditions and why Gua sha is effective in acute and chronic internal organ disorders as well.

The beauty of this treatment technique is that it is easy to perform, inexpensive and very powerful.

In this course Mark will guide you step by step so that you too will have the knowledge and understanding to treat yourself, your friends and family and your clients just like people have been doing for centuries.

I look forward to seeing you in class!

On completion of this course you will receive a certificate from the Isla Verde Spa Training Academy  and also be eligible to join to CTAA if you so desire.

All of Mark's Course are accredited with the CTAA (Complementary Therapists Accredited Association).

On completion of this course, you will have access to join the CTAA if you please. As a member of the CTAA you will receive these benefits:

  1. A Professional Certificate showing that you have full membership with CTAA as a Practitioner.

  2. Access to discounted Therapist Practitioner Insurance with your membership (subject to their Insurance Partners)

  4. Free CTAA Directory Listing

  5. Have the opportunity to write a blog/article within the complementary therapy field that you work, that will be shared on their Website and Social Media to enable you to reach a larger audience and have exposure to yourself and your website.


Who this course is for:

  • This gua sha course I have designed for anyone, from massage therapists or someone completely untrained in massage that would love to know how to be able to treat their own pains, or other people's pain and other health conditions naturally with this technique that has been used for thousands of years and is incredibly effective!

Mark is a fun person to learn from & watch. I found his videos engaging & straight to the point. He has many clips to watch & It was nice to have shorter videos rather than long/dragged out ones because I find myself not as focused if they are too long - so I love the way he structures them. The material is extensive & the notes he provides are very helpful. I look forward to the other classes I ordered from him.
