What you get

Why train with us

The things that matter, short enough to read on a phone.

  • Three levels, so you start where you are and can carry on from there.
  • The advanced course is filmed with a lymphotherapist and lymphologist with 27 years of practice, not only with a trainer.
  • We give contraindications and warning signs real space. With lymph that is the most important thing you have to know.
  • The technique needs no machine, so you widen what your salon offers without investing in equipment.
  • The notes are professional and in English, and you can have them printed.
  • The online course sits in the Beauty Hub 24 app with long term access, so you can keep going back to it.
  • After the course you get the wholesale price list, a listing on our partner map and a booking system free of charge.

What the basic course teaches you

The right direction of the strokes, the pressure and the rhythm, so the technique works and stays safe.

How the lymphatic system works and why you do not start where the swelling is worst.

Effects, indications and advice from practice, meaning when to offer the massage and what a client can expect from it.

Contraindications, meaning when not to do it. With lymph that is the essential part of the training.

What the basic course teaches you

The 2.0 Expert Certification course

A video of 1 hour 36 minutes with MUC Pavel Tichy, a lymphotherapist and lymphologist with 27 years of practice, who worked at the lymphology clinic of the Masaryk Memorial Cancer Institute in Brno and now runs his own practice in Prague and Brno.

Notes running to 45 pages: the anatomy of the lymphatic system, water retention, the differences between cellulite, lipoedema and lymphoedema, and venous swelling.

Practical protocols for working with a client, how often to repeat treatments, warning signs and safe practice.

Allow roughly 7 to 10 hours if you want to really understand the course and use it in practice.

The 2.0 Expert Certification course

In person or online

On the in person course you try the technique under expert supervision and you know straight away whether you are doing it right. We teach in Prague 4 and agree the day with you.

The online course arrives by email within 5 working days at the latest and you study at your own pace from anywhere. The video and the notes sit in the Beauty Hub 24 app and you can keep going back to them.

Plenty of our students do both: online first for the theory, then in person to fine tune their hands.

In person or online

What the course lets you sell

Lymphatic massage is gentle and pleasant and still gives visible results, which is why clients come back to it.

Clients look for it for swelling, heavy legs, water retention, the look of cellulite and recovery.

It combines well with beauty treatments and massages and can be sold as a series rather than a one off.

A herbal drainage tea sells well alongside it, for the client to drink between treatments.

Common questions

What people ask us most

Which course should I choose?

If you want to try the technique under supervision, the in person course at 204,70 EUR. If you want to start now and study in your own time, the online course from 40,60 EUR. If you already do lymphatic drainage and want to understand why it works, the advanced 2.0 course with a lymphologist at 81,60 EUR.

What is in the basic online course?

A video of roughly 32 minutes showing the technique in practice, detailed notes on the lymphatic system, the procedure step by step, effects and indications, access to the Beauty Hub 24 app and a certificate. Working through the notes takes about 6 to 8 hours.

What makes the 2.0 Expert Certification course different?

It is an advanced course. A video of 1 hour 36 minutes filmed with MUC Pavel Tichy, a lymphotherapist and lymphologist with 27 years of practice, and 45 pages of professional notes. It does not only teach the strokes, it covers the differences between cellulite, lipoedema and lymphoedema, work with different kinds of swelling, contraindications and warning signs.

Do I need previous training?

Not for the basic course, it goes step by step from the beginning. The 2.0 course suits people who already work with the body. To give massages for payment you need the trade licence your own country requires.

When do I get access to the online course?

The shop sends your access by email within 5 working days at the latest. The course sits in the Beauty Hub 24 app and access is long term, so you can keep coming back to it.

What language is the course in?

You get the course in English. The video comes with English subtitles or English audio, and the notes and the certificate are in English. On in person courses we teach in English, Russian and Ukrainian ourselves and arrange an interpreter for other languages.

What is the difference between the electronic and the printed version?

The content is the same. With the electronic version everything arrives by email, with the printed version you get the notes printed on paper.

Where does the in person course take place?

At our training centre in Prague 4, Kloboučnická 1442/4. For English speaking students we agree the day individually, weekends included, and if you are flying in we build it around your flight.

Do I get a certificate?

Yes, with every option. The certificate confirms that you have learned the principles of the technique. With the online courses please put your name, date and place of birth in the order note so we can fill it in.

When must lymphatic massage not be done?

With acute infections, fever, thrombosis, an oncological condition without a doctor’s approval and with other serious conditions. We go through contraindications in detail in the course, because with lymph they matter more than anything else.
