The UK Massage Championship is proudly organised by the London School of Massage, one of the UK’s leading providers of professional massage and complementary therapy training.
Recognised as the event of the year for massage therapy, the championship brings together practitioners, students and industry leaders to celebrate skill, creativity and innovation in massage therapy.
The UK Massage Championship provides massage therapists with the opportunity to display their skills across five different categories, each designed to highlight a unique aspect of massage practice. Whether you specialise in sports massage, relaxation, or advanced therapeutic techniques, the championship is the ideal stage to shine.
Competitors benefit not only from national recognition but also from the chance to connect with a global audience, as the UK Massage Championship forms part of the World Massage Federation, which hosts competitions worldwide.

This ensures a fair, consistent, and expert evaluation process that reflects both technical skill and quality of client care.
