Mihai Mocanu
Level 3 VTCT Diploma in Massage Therapies
I decided to do this course to try something new, as well as to learn some relaxation treatments for my work colleagues because it’s a really stressful time in the NHS at the moment. It’s been something that I’ve enjoyed and I found all the types of massage really interesting to learn. I studied sport at university back in Romania, so now I can use both sports massage and relaxing massage techniques.
