Kansas City Massage Diploma in Asian Bodywork Overview
We are a Kansas City Massage School that offers massage
certification and massage diplomas in Asian Massage
Training.
Our Asian Bodywork massage course encompasses traditional
healing techniques from Thailand, China, India, and Indonesia
Japan. These techniques focus on the balance of energy in the
body through the use of pressure points, passive stretching,
reflexology, and relaxation techniques.
We offer three options for massage certification:
The therapy focuses on opening energy pathways in the body such
as the Chinese meridians, the Indian nadis and Thai sen lines. The
body is viewed as being comprised of subtle energy centers, that
when blocked or restricted, the person experiences mal health and
disharmony in the body, mind and spirit.
While Asian body therapy may contain some elements of
traditional Western massage, they are not one in the same and the
intent is different. The Department of Education has a totally
separate definition of ABT from massage. ABT practices such as
Thai Yoga and shiatsu are not included in the definition of
massage, and massage is not in any part of the definition of ABT.
Recognized forms of Asian Body Therapy defined by the
Department of Education include: acupressure, AMMA® Therapy,
Five Element/Japanese Shiatsu, Jin Shin Do® Anma Therapy, Thai
massage, Tui Na, Qigong and Okazaki®.

alternative healthcare. This field is attractive for many people
who want to set their own hours, work from home and enjoy more
time with their family and doing leisure activities.
