Ayurvedic Massage and Body Therapy Certification Course
An Ayurvedic Body Therapist is a specialist working with massage and other therapies that are individualized to the nature of the person and
nature of any imbalances that are present. Ayurvedic body therapies are a significant part of the healing process in Ayurvedic medicine and are becoming popular in clinics and health spas around the world. In order to be certified as an Ayurvedic Body Therapist, students must complete the College's 5 day hands-on intensive plus complete a Foundations Course in ayurveda. Our foundations course is completed through distance learning and takes approximately one month. The course includes reading and answering questions about how the material relates to your own health and well-being. Level-one ayurvedic students are exempt from the Foundations Course.
