  1. Skeletal System: Understand the structure and function of the skeletal system, including major bones and joints. Practical sessions will involve palpation techniques to identify bony landmarks.
  2. Muscular System: Learn about the different types of muscles, their functions, and how they respond to massage. Hands-on sessions will focus on locating and working with various muscle groups.
  3.  

By the end of this course, you will have a solid understanding of human anatomy and physiology, and be able to apply this knowledge in a practical setting, providing effective and safe massage therapy treatments.
