Student Profiles
Akiko Yagi, Japan
Certificate IV in Massage Therapy Practice and Diploma of Remedial Massage
I travelled to Melbourne from Japan three years ago to study a Diploma of Remedial Massage with Endeavour College after developing an interest in the mechanisms of the body after suffering from stiff shoulders for many years. I was attracted to Endeavour College because of its excellent reputation and the convenient location of the school. Studying with Endeavour College has given me the opportunity to make good friends with other massage therapists. I find it very encouraging to have friends in the same industry. We hold charity massage events at the clinic each Friday and recently raised money to support those impacted by the Japanese earthquake. I?m currently working in the graduate clinic at the Melbourne campus and am enjoying the experience as my dream is to work in a spa and specialise in cupping, pregnancy massage and aromatherapy.
