Why learn massage

The right touch begins with presence

Learning massage means developing presence, listening to the body and a touch that encourages relaxation. Massage is much more than a sequence of movements.

This course gives you the foundations for a complete massage: a fluid, structured protocol, anatomical reference points, suitable postures and quality movements. It also encourages perception, adaptation and a conscious approach, so that every session is a true encounter.

“This protocol is a common thread, not a fixed sequence.”

Your trainer

Thomas Da Silva

Energy massage therapist in Cannes and founder of Parenthèse Sensorielle, I support the people I treat with treatments that combine touch and energy work, at the Centre Ananda and in luxury hotels on the French Riviera.

In this course, I pass on a structured protocol while inviting each student to develop their own perception: technique is the common thread, presence does the rest.

06 50 82 76 71
Do I need massage experience?
No. The course starts from the basics: postures, movements, rhythm and anatomical reference points. Experienced practitioners will also find a complete protocol and an energy-based approach to integrate into their practice.
What will I be able to do at the end of the four days?
Give a complete massage safely, from first contact to closing, with the basics of anatomy, a posture that protects your body and the first tools of the energy-based approach. The protocol is adaptable and can be offered in a shorter version.
What is the difference between a wellbeing massage and an energy massage?
A wellbeing massage aims at muscular relaxation and relaxation. An energy massage adds presence, listening and a dimension of energy flow. The course teaches a wellbeing massage enriched with this conscious approach.
Why a group of six people maximum?
With six participants, everyone receives individual corrections and personalised follow-up, and the pace adapts to each person.
Can I pay in instalments?
Yes, in four interest-free monthly instalments, i.e. 4 × €172.50. The course is not currently funded by an OPCO.
Where does the course take place and what should I bring?
At the Centre Ananda in Cannes. Equipment is provided: tables, oils, linen and materials. Just bring comfortable clothing.
How do I choose a good massage course?
Look at the balance between technique, anatomy and practice, the size of the group, the trainer’s experience and the follow-up offered after the course.

The massages taught are wellbeing and relaxation massages, with no medical or therapeutic purpose. They do not replace medical advice or treatment.
