The ITM Massage School, officially the International Training Massage School, is one of the best known Thai Massage training institutes in Thailand. The massage training school is located in Chiang Mai city, in Northern Thailand.
Apart from a broad variety of Thai Massage therapist training courses, the ITM school also offers so-called Teacher Trainings in order to become a Thai Massage instructor.
ITM Chiang Mai runs a Certified Advanced Practitioner & Teacher Training Program also known as the CAPT-program. It’s a 390 hours training program, and takes 11 weeks, guiding you through ITM’s Thai Massage Level I (1) up to Level V (5), which consists of
- Level I – Foundation of Thai Massage
