“From scientific touch to global healing—your professional journey begins here.”
1. Strategic Introduction

Massage Science: A Bridge Between Body and Mind
Massage is far more than a method of relaxation; it is a structured discipline grounded in medical science, psychology, anatomy, and neurophysiology. Within the professional framework of IFPF, massage therapy is recognized as an official field, delivered through internationally accredited training, structured certification, and clear career pathways—particularly in key countries such as the UAE and Armenia.
2. Scientific Foundations of Massage

The Physiological, Neurological, and Psychological Basis of Touch
Massage therapy stimulates skin and muscle receptors, activates the parasympathetic nervous system, and plays a critical role in reducing stress hormones (cortisol) while boosting serotonin and oxytocin levels. Global studies have confirmed its impact on:
- Enhancing muscular blood circulation
- Reducing chronic and inflammatory pain
- Improving sleep quality and mental health
- Reducing anxiety, depression, and PTSD
- Strengthening immune function through NK cell activation
