That is why at our
massage school, nearly 80 percent of class hours are dedicated to our students to practice
massaging other students, receiving
massage, and observing the teacher demonstrate how to
massage.The remaining 20 percent of class hours are spent discussing the theory of Raynor
massage and other subjects such as hygiene, professional ethics, contraindications, the theory of hand and foot reflexology and the
qualities of different aromatherapy oils, which are covered in the Diploma
course.
At the beginning of the
course each mother was given a battery of self - report questionnaires to fill in at home, aimed at investigating socio - demographic information, maternal psychological well being, marital relationships and perceived social support (see the section
Quality of Mother — Child Interactions during
Massage Lessons).
