We offer Certificate, Diploma, and Advanced Diploma massage courses in Brisbane on demand. Our courses are 1-2 weeks in length, intensive, and hands-on.

At the moment we are offering all of our courses in south east Queensland at our Gympie headquarters as Brandon Raynor has recently re-based there. However, if there is a group of people wanting a course in Brisbane over the span of several weekends then we can arrange to teach on Saturdays and Sundays.  Otherwise we strongly encourage you to attend a course in Gympie where you will have the chance to learn directly from Brandon Raynor, the creator of Raynor Massage. New courses are being held every 3 months.

Please see our Sunshine Coast and Gympie Raynor massage course page for more details.

We offer Certificate, Diploma, and Advanced Diploma massage courses in Brisbane. Our courses are 1-2 weeks in length, intensive, and hands-on.

Our massage courses in Brisbane are not like any other available in Australia. Although the courses are short, you will learn to massage in a way that will leave your clients wondering where you trained and how this massage is better than any other they have ever experienced. Through intensive hands on training you will learn Raynor Massage. This is what will then build you a successful career as a massage therapist. Customer satisfaction,  plain and simple! If you can provide your clients with a massage that makes them feel alive, refreshed and positively transformed then you will have repeat clients and you will have more referrals than you can deal with.

It was one of the best investments I ever made! I learned so much in that course and I only did the Certificate Course! I could just imagine how much more I’d learn if I was to do the Advanced Diploma…can’t wait.. Raynor massage is one of the best types of massage I’ve ever received!

Learn Effectively

Raynor massage is famous for its deep abdominal massage techniques and its holistic nature of working the body as a whole. It uses techniques such as reflexology of the hands and feet and working bands of tension to get stress and muscular tension to release. Raynor massage is also famous for its synthesis of working with the body-mind-emotions connection.

You will learn techniques and methods that will facilitate the release of deep seated emotions that can be stored in peoples’ bodies. This can be a very powerful and life transforming event for people and we hope that during the course you will not only learn to massage in the Raynor method but also you will undergo your own healing and de-stressing so you can see what it feels like to have a body that is free of tension and emotional stagnation.

We will teach you to get to the source of this muscle tension and relieve it. This heightened sense of touch, and knowledge of how the body functions in a holistic manner, as well as the knowledge of a variety of techniques from the world’s most renowned massage styles, will give you the ability to break up and release this muscle tension from its roots.

A massage that can actually release the tension and frees the body’s subtle energies on this deepest level works wonders with emotional and physical ailments, as many emotional problems actually have physical interaction.

Justin Thomas, Sydney, Australia

Dr. Owen Hutchings, emergency room physician, Sydney, Australia

How wonderful that massage was that you gave me in the course and how much it has changed my life.

As I mentioned, since my lung collapsing and being off the pill, my cycles were around 54 days long without ovulating. I had tried all kinds of herbs but after the massage, my next cycle was exactly 28 days with ovulating and, as a result, guess what…. I’m pregnant! An absolutely wonderful surprise and byproduct of an amazing therapy. I’m 13 weeks currently and have been really well, happy and healthy since the massage.

I just thought you should know how amazing the therapy actually is and what incredible things it can change not
only mentally but physically and biologically as well. So a BIG thank you for your amazing gift of healing. Todd and I are both so grateful and happy for all of your invaluable help.

Hope you have a great day,

A Huge Inspiration!!! From my first 15 minutes on day one I knew I had made the right choice. Terry told us his personal reasons along with his experiences learning Brandon Raynor Massage Technique to teaching and travelling the world sharing such a powerful massage technique. “Wow” I remember thinking how easily I related to his previous working situation as I was coming from a financial accountants position which involved, stress, stress and more stress… to learn massage.

The 10 day Brandon Raynor Diploma course run by Terry was fun, relaxing and the experience was awesome. Terry showed such passion and love for massage which made learning the Raynor Massage Technique easy. He’s high quality teaching methods, professionalism, life experiences and his understanding of different cultural backgrounds and needless to say Raynor Massage technique made this intensive hands on course very informative and an absolute pleasure to attend. Terry’s massage skills which I experienced hands on was mind blowing and definitely made a huge impact on my whole outlook on life physically and emotionally.

I now feel I have found my purpose in life – to share the physical and emotional Healing Power of Raynor Massage.
Thank you Terry and Craig, for your caring help and support!
