Deep Tissue Massage Training Course

I spent far too long as a “qualified” professional who felt completely powerless in front of a patient. In the hospital, the routine and the paperwork were killing my hands, and the fear of becoming a therapist with a license but no actual skill was keeping me up at night. That’s why I went to RSM International Academy.

Over two intensive weeks, I went through a total clinical transformation. We didn't just learn techniques; we mastered Trigger Point Therapy and a high-level Deep Tissue Massage Training Course that integrated functional anatomy, myofascial chains, and neurodynamics. The depth was staggering. I finally moved past the theory and gained a precise, hands-on grip on sciatic nerve disorders, posterior femoral cutaneous nerve pain, and complex lumbar patterns. We broke down pelvic tilt dysfunctions, Lower Crossed Syndrome, and postural analysis in a way that actually made sense in a clinical setting.

The program is led by Hironori Ikeda (MSc Sports Medicine), whose expertise brings a rare level of academic prestige and elite clinical authority to the training. He earned his Master’s at the University of Tsukuba—consistently ranked as Asia’s top institution for Sports Science—and his expertise is globally recognized. He has been invited as a master trainer for senior therapy teams at world-renowned five-star wellness resorts like Chiva-Som and has optimized the conditioning for elite professional athletes, ranging from Spanish basketball players to top fighters in Croatia.

Beyond the clinic, Hironori’s scientific authority is backed by his work on the Japan Industrial Standards (JIS) committee for human ergonomics and his development of patented technology with the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST). He even coordinates cadaver anatomy labs with Chiang Mai University’s Faculty of Medicine to ensure every skill is grounded in anatomical truth. Having him provide direct, hands-on correction is what finally bridged the gap between knowing the anatomy and actually feeling it.

I no longer feel like I’m being left behind. My assessment accuracy and my ability to explain the “how” and “why” to my clients have improved dramatically. Every module is built on evidence-based methodologies, including his scientifically validated Balance Ball Yoga system which was proven effective in clinical research at the University of Cagliari.

If you're tired of just going through the motions and you're terrified of your skills stagnating, this is the only place to be. Traditional massage isn't enough anymore—RSM is where you actually become a clinician.
