1000h Massage Therapist Certification &
Continuing Education Courses for Massage Therapists

Our Continuing Education courses are designed for certified massage therapists who have completed at least 400 hours of massage training, whether through Académie Om or another recognized school. Therapists currently enrolled in a 400-hour training program are also welcome to register. They will receive their continuing education certificates once their initial 400-hour certification is complete.

Each time you complete a continuing education course at Académie Om, you will receive an individual certificate specifying the number of hours completed and the specific techniques or modalities learned.

As you accumulate hours, you are working toward the your 1000-Hour Advanced Massage Therapist Diploma. Once you reach a total of 600 hours of continuing education with Académie Om (in addition to your initial 400-hour certification), you will be awarded this advanced diploma.

This flexible, self-paced program allows you to grow as a therapist while deepening your skills and knowledge. All courses are recognized by Quebec’s leading massage therapy associations: RMPQ, RMQ, and RITMA.
