Learn Aromatherapy Oil Massage — 150-Hour Professional Course

Short answer

The 150-hour Aromatherapy Oil Massage course teaches international spa technique — essential oil selection, blending, continuous flow, and therapeutic application. It is the single most in-demand skill in 4–5 star hotel spas. Graduates receive a bilingual certificate and licence eligibility. Tuition is 4,900 THB.

If Thai massage is the door into the profession, oil massage is the door to higher income. Hotel spas and premium shops charge nearly double for oil treatments — and the tips follow.

This course covers essential oil science, matching aromas to conditions, and the continuous Swedish and aromatherapy hand technique that never breaks contact.

Students who add oil massage after Thai massage typically land hotel spa work within weeks.

Do I need Thai massage first?
No. You can start with oil massage. However, Thai massage first gives you a faster grasp of body structure.

Shops typically charge 1.5–2× the Thai massage rate, so your share is higher — and hotel spa tips are usually larger too.

Yes — it is an accredited 150-hour course valid for health massage practitioner registration.
Are oils provided during training?
Yes, all carrier and essential oils used in training are included in the tuition.
