MASSAGING A PATHWAY TO THE STARS

After successful studies at Chisholm in an Advanced Diploma of Remedial Massage Liam Staines has taken ‘reaching for the stars’ to new heights. 

After completing the course in 2000, Liam who had previously worked as a personal care attendant, started a rapid rise in his massage career which has since seen him work as an AFL sports injury masseur for Essendon and for the Australian Rugby Seven during the recent Commonwealth Games as well as partnership in a thriving Frankston based sports injury clinic. 

Liam’s Diploma paved the way for his initial work placement at the Sports Injury Clinic Frankston of which he is now a partner. It’s a private practice, multi-disciplinary Clinic which is shortly expanding from a six room treatment facility to 17. 

“The business has really gone through the roof “ 

“I was just 28 when I signed on for the Chisholm Course. After graduation I put my newly acquired skills into immediate action and now at 36, I have achieved a high degree of professional standing that has really given me “a real edge’ and solid client base.

“Massage is a high growth area as more and more people seek treatment over other forms of remedial therapy.” 

“Setting myself up in Chisholm’s Advanced Diploma of Remedial Massage gave me the solid qualifications I needed to get the job I wanted.” 

The extensive full time course at Chisholm covers all related study areas including: Soft Tissue Techniques: Therapeutic; Sports Remedial, Anatomy, Physiology, Infection Control, Surface Anatomy, Medical Terminology, Movement Analysis, Pathology Assessment, Exercise Science, Posture, Nutrition, Communication and Administration. Graduation in the course also prepares you for entry to a Bachelor of health Science.
