on site massage video

[Leon B]

Hi all

Have any of you seen the desk top on site massage face cradles that are on sale at

[link]http://www.physiosupplies.co.uk[/link]

they cost £95 and come with an instructional video. I have not done an on site massage course but have done IHM and was wondering if anyone owns this video and face cradle and what they think of it. ie, is it a credable alternative. Can't help but think not but I'm very interested to hear your opinions.

Meant to say that you have to click on therapy couches/inversion tables etc then portable massage equipment.

Sorry!

Few of the couch making companies have them and yes it would be a good option, never used one myself but if they are half as comfy as the chairs it should be cool. I don't think there is anything wrong with using oneas an alternative as they are so much more portable than the full chairs. Some people do Indian Head using the face rest, but if you are hoping to offer on site massage as part of your therapies have a word with the insurance company as some may not add it separately without attending a course (sometimes it's taught as a half day or full day workshop).

Hi Tam1
I attended a stress management course last year. One of the students had done this course and purchased the on site face cradles. It is very convenient, easy to set up and use. Gussie is right though, if you want to add this to your therapies then you will have to get a separate certificate to say you have attended and passed the course. Insurance is different for this, I have a diploma in Anatomy, Physiology and Massage but my insurance would not cover this if I didn't attend the training course.
