Both our Level 3 and 4 Sports Massage Courses are regulated by Ofqual and awarded by Focus Awards.
This means that all of OriGym’s courses are held to the same high standards as other Sports massage qualifications in the UK, while also being internationally recognised!
You do not need any prior experience or qualifications to sign up for OriGym’s Level 3 Sports Massage Certification.
Students who wish to enrol on our Level 4 Sports Massage Qualification will however need to complete this initial Level 3 training as a prerequisite.
In addition to this, you must be aged 16 or older to study with OriGym!
We are proud to say that we have the highest work placement rate among training providers in the UK, with 92% of our students going on to work within the fitness industry.
This is all made possible by our dedicated post-course support team, who are on hand to help current and former students find and secure their dream job. This includes services such as a guaranteed job interview, CV analysis and distribution, business consultations, and interview prep!
The most obvious difference between the two Sports Massage Training Courses is that Level 3 is an entry-level qualification, while the Level 4 is for qualified individuals looking to advance their practice.
When enrolled on the Level 3 course you will learn entry-level skills from modules specifically designed for those with no-prior experience within the industry.
The Level 4 course on the other hand expands your knowledge in areas such as clinical procedures and treatment planning. In addition to this, students will also develop further practical skills, such as learning how to implement advanced massage techniques.
On average, it takes students 8 weeks to complete the Level 3 and Level 4 Sports Massage courses respectively (16 weeks in total).
The duration of these courses are not set in stone, as both are taught via blended learning. This requires students to attend in-person workshops, while also studying independently via OriGym’s online learning platform.
The rate at which you graduate will be determined by how quickly you complete both practical and theoretical assessments.
This can be done at your own pace, as there are no deadlines associated with either sports massage qualifications!
Upon the completion of the Level 3 course in sports massage therapy you will be regarded as a highly employable individual, eligible to work in locations such as clinics, gyms, spas, and sporting clubs to name a few!
Alternatively, you could pursue self-employment, for example working on a mobile basis travelling to your clients, as and when they require your services.
After completing your Level 4 sports massage certificate you will be qualified to pursue more senior roles and treat clients in their recovery from injury. The benefits of pursuing these opportunities include an increased salary and greater professional development.

Testimonials
Ramnik Sembi
Founder of Ramnik Personal TrainingInvaluable practical experience!
Before OriGym Ramnik was facing redundancy after a 10-year career. With an existing interest in health and fitness, Ramnik knew a role helping others to reach their goals would suit his personality and ambition. Searching online, he signed up to the Level 2 Gym Instructor and Level 3 Personal Trainer course.
I absolutely made the right decision to choose OriGym! I’m very grateful for their continued support and their amazing tutors. They are really encouraging, helping to build your confidence to succeed. OriGym’s approach to flexibility encouraged me to study in my own time through online assessments and tutorials. Perfect for a busy parent juggling responsibilities.
My career since has gone from strength to strength. I set up my own brand whilst studying, creating a home-based studio where I train my clients. I also work as a Group Fitness Instructor, have set up my own HIIT fitness event and work with local academies encouraging children to enjoy exercise as part of a healthy lifestyle.
