Continued (continued.com/massage-therapy)

Continued’s massage section provides continuing-education courses on subjects including deep tissue, myofascial work and sports massage. The library is intended for people who already have a massage qualification and need further education. It is not organized as a complete initial massage-school curriculum.

State and license filters help narrow the catalog to potentially relevant courses. They are useful selection tools, but a therapist still needs to check the particular course’s approval and completion conditions against their own renewal requirement.

Courses are available on demand through an annual membership, which provides access rather than a fixed study sequence. Plan completion and certificate retrieval before your renewal deadline. Merely subscribing does not demonstrate that you have earned any particular CE hours.

The platform is self-directed, with no instructor interaction described. That matters if your goal requires feedback on technique rather than independent review of course material.

Continued is an NCBTMB Approved CE Provider through the National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage & Bodywork. Completed CE courses lead to certificates of achievement.

NCBTMB Approved CE Provider status is relevant to continuing education. It does not mean that purchasing membership awards an initial massage credential, and a course-completion certificate is evidence of that course rather than a new professional license.

The intended audience is licensed or certified massage therapists meeting continuing-education requirements. This is ongoing professional learning after qualification, not initial admission to massage practice.

The annual membership cost $149 for unlimited CE access on October 5, 2026. Evaluate that fee against the eligible courses you realistically plan to finish during the membership year.

Complete refund terms are not established by the public information, so request cancellation conditions before subscribing. You can test the platform with one free course per person, although some catalog items are excluded. Choose an eligible course first rather than assuming the whole library is available for a free trial.

Continued fits already-qualified massage therapists who need affordable renewal hours and can meet relevant requirements through online study. The on-demand format makes it practical around existing appointments. It does not replace foundational licensure training or supervised hands-on instruction.

A named CE approval. NCBTMB provider status gives you a specific recognition claim to match with your requirements.

One annual access price. Unlimited courses for $149 can be economical when several suitable courses are on your learning plan.

A sample before subscribing. One free course lets you assess delivery and completion-certificate handling.

Filters for professional needs. State and license filters help narrow the choices, without proving every course is acceptable for every credential.

Several massage specialties. Deep tissue, myofascial therapy, and sports massage support varied continuing development.

No entry-level qualification. The membership provides continuing education rather than a complete massage-school program.

No hands-on component. Mostly video-based study does not demonstrate observed performance of manual techniques.

The free offer has exclusions. Verify course eligibility before selecting a topic on the assumption that it will be free.

Neuro Training School offers specialist Brain Injuries study at £699 and Multiple Sclerosis at £599, charged once in GBP; the Advanced Practitioner fee was not established. Courses are self-paced, with 12 months of specialist access and separate references to lifetime resources. Brain Injuries exceeds 30 hours, with CPD Group accreditation and recognition from insurers including Towergate, Westminster, and Balens.

Qualified massage therapists wanting neurological-condition specialties may prefer NeuroMassage’s focus. It is UK-based and pound-priced. The Continued–NeuroMassage comparison contrasts a broad annual CE library with that targeted study.

Kerala Ayurveda Academy offers Holistic Ayurvedic Coach at $3,850 for six months and 300 hours, with the next cohort starting October 12, 2026. Ayurvedic Health Counselor is $8,950 for a year and 600 hours, Advanced Ayurvedic Practitioner $12,950, and short courses begin at $95. HAC is presented as a pathway to NAMACB accreditation and transfers into the first six AHC modules.

Beginners wanting structured, cohort-based professional Ayurveda study with counselor progression may find the US academy relevant. Longer certifications cost substantially more and teach a different subject. See the Continued–Kerala Ayurveda comparison to separate CE access from a new educational pathway.

Ananta’s ARYM training is in person: an example Ubud, Bali course covers Levels 1–4, 56 hours, in about ten days at €1,380 standard or €1,180 early bird. Twenty-eight-hour sections start at €820, excluding accommodation and meals. The full seven-level, 14-masterclass route exceeds 500 hours, with IICT accreditation and insurance recognition described across 38–40-plus countries.

Massage therapists, yoga teachers, and beginners wanting hands-on Ayurvedic Yoga Massage at retreat locations worldwide may prefer Ananta. Travel, accommodation, and meals add to its in-person-only cost, making it a different commitment from an annual online library.

The Reiki certification category is broad enough to include these specialist massage and wellness options. Compare the actual continuing-education purpose instead of using the category name as evidence that all awards are equivalent.

Use the official massage-therapy section to inspect courses and filter by state and license. Try an eligible free course if useful, then verify approval, membership billing and completion-certificate requirements before buying annual access.

Before subscribing, verify course-level acceptance, your renewal deadline, and how many useful courses you can complete in the year. That will show whether unlimited access is valuable for your needs rather than simply a large catalog you may not use.
