Level 3 & 4 Combined Sports Massage Course

Become a fully qualified Sports Massage Therapist – all in one course!

Our Level 3 & 4 Combined Sports Massage Diploma at Kent Sports Academy offers the ideal route to launch your massage career with confidence. This hands-on course gives you the knowledge, skills, and real-world experience to treat clients both in and outside the sporting environment.

Why Combine Level 3 & 4?

Combining both levels means fewer students, more tutor time, and faster progression. Instead of returning later to upgrade to Level 4, you’ll gain both qualifications in one smooth, high-quality learning experience.

Level 3 focuses on massage techniques for healthy individuals. Level 4 builds on this and teaches you to assess, treat, and manage common injuries and dysfunctions. This leads to more confidence, better results, and a stronger business offering.

Expert Tutors with Real Experience

You’ll be taught by experienced tutors like Andy Davis, who brings 20 years of hands-on sports therapy and clinic expertise, including work with rugby clubs and university-level teaching. Mark, a seasoned therapist and educator, also brings practical knowledge from his clinic and university work.

Together, they ensure you’re well prepared—whether you’re starting from scratch or expanding your current career.

Real-Life Practice from Day One

During the course, you’ll treat real clients and apply what you learn in practical workshops. This gives you the confidence to start working immediately after qualifying. Students also benefit from several free massages during the course—so you learn by receiving as well as giving.

Course Content Includes:

• Anatomy & Physiology

• Client Assessment & Treatment Planning

• Sports Massage Techniques

• Soft Tissue Repair & Injury Management

• Pre- and Post-Event Massage

• Professional Practice & Ethics

You’ll be assessed through practical sessions, coursework, and a multiple-choice exam.

Business Skills & Career Support

We also cover marketing, client retention, and setting up your own therapy business. Many of our students follow our tutors and other therapists on social media to stay inspired and build their online presence while studying. Gain support by registering with Sports Therapy Association.
