Womb & Fertility Massage Training FAQ’s

Who can take this course?

Any woman who hears the call to work with women, their wombs and their empowerment! You do not need to have any prior qualifications as Womb & Fertility Massage is a fully accredited short course, comprising of Anatomy, Physiology & Pathology, Health & Safety, Business & Management and the Massage techniques needed to fully perform Fertility Massage.
Fertility Massage Therapy is  accredited by Think Tree Professional Body, with full insurance and membership available. For Practitioners of complementary therapies who hold a recognised qualification in anatomy & physiology and are insured to touch the whole body, you will gain your certificate once all case studies/theory exam are completed as this course continues to be a CPD/CPE approved course with CTHA, FHT, IICT and MMA.

Why is this a female only course?

This course includes sitting in a circle of sisters; allowing for women to share, be heard and be nurtured on their own journey.

Is this the same as Mizan/Mayan/Abdominal Sacral Therapy?

I invite you to read my post here for further information.

What qualification will I gain?

On successful completion of the 4 or 5 day practical, the theory exam and the case studies, a Womb & Fertility Massage Practitioner Certificate will be issued.

Are there case studies to do?

The requirement is 12 case studies for massage therapists and 18 for non-massage therapists on the diploma pathway.

What’s involved in the exam process?

There is a short multiple choice exam at the end of each online WFMT theory module. The practical assessment involves demonstrating the Womb & Fertility Massage full treatment on the final day of the course.

How long do I have to complete the exam and case studies?

You have 12 months to complete the process. If you have a life changing event during this time, contact your tutor so that an extension can be granted.

What if I don’t do the exam?

You will only receive your certificate once you have completed the case studies and theory exam. Without your certificate, you will not be able to practice legally or morally, and will not gain insurance. If more than 2 years passes since your course and you have not completed the exams, you will need to fully refresh by attending the 4 day course again (at half price) and you will have 6 months from this date to complete the exams. Without the certificate you cannot be listed on the website as a practitioner. We also ask for you to have integrity and not promote yourself as a practitioner without the certificate.

Why do we need to refresh after 3 years?

Guidelines from governing bodies are the first reason; to ensure that we keep our high standard within the industry, we need to ensure that all therapists are up to date with their skills as it is common that once we leave the course, we forget techniques and create some bad habits. The course continues to evolve, which is exciting and you can continue to add to your skillset. Certificates are only valid for 3 years, therefore, you will need to attend a Refresher & Reassessment day to gain your new certificate.

Who is the course approved or recognised by?

Womb & Fertility Massage Therapy is accredited in the UK by Think Tree Hub, and approved by the Federation of Holistic Therapists, and the Complementary Therapists Association. In Australia we are accredited by Massage & Myotherapy Australia and approved by the International Institute of Complementary Therapists.
