African Massage
The African Massage course work is designed for licensed massage therapists of all skill and experience levels who are interested in adding additional specialized massage techniques to their practices. As part of our personal approach to teaching, we work with small groups of students so your individual needs are met and our clear, simple teaching style and supportive environment enables you to get the most from your learning.

Please note that most of our courses require that you are a licensed massage therapist. We offer several different types of massage therapies which allow the therapist to alter and gear each treatment specifically for the situation and each client. When a person is confronted by an array of colours like a set of coloured oils, or even a rack of clothes, they're immediately drawn to the colours in their own auric field.

School sold prior to emigration. I have been a Reflexology practitioner since 1986 and a Massage Therapy practitioner since 1992.

African Bonga Massage makes use of bonga sticks to apply rhythmic tapotement to various sections of the body. Tapotement is the rapid, percussive tapping, slapping and cupping of the massaged area. It is used to more aggressively work and strengthen muscles during deep tissue massage. It increases local blood circulation and can even help tone muscle areas.
The Rungu Stick is a baton shaped wooden stick or club. It is called a knobkerrie in some African countries and originates from the Massai tribe in East Africa. The smooth texture, heavy look and feel, as well as the varying shapes of the rungu are combined to offer an exceptional massage with deep pressure and a variety of strokes.

Yup another five star review, it's just that good! I am very grateful to have found Jaci on a recent vacation in the area. The setting is tranquil and professional. Her technique is intuitive with superb touch. Expert. I would recommend Jaci without a doubt and hope to get another massage with her next time i am in town.

After a lot of research for the best provider for pre-natal massage and color therapy for my wife, I selected Jaci Daley and African Massage in Brevard NC. Jaci Daley has over 25 years experience and also teaches other licensed massage therapists so they may remain current in the art. I and my wife highly recommend Jaci Daley and her very unique Energy In Motion massage technique.

I have been a competitive runner for 25 years and still run along with being active in tennis and other sports but have had severe lower back and upper leg pain.
Jaci has an incredible way, using African massage, through visualization of the forces of nature interacting with the mind to allow the body to relax to accept the healing touch of her hands through therapeutic massage.
When I first came to Jaci, I could not even sit down due to severe upper leg and lower back pain, but her massage therapy has gotten me back running and on the tennis courts again. I highly recommend her for recovery

Injured my shoulder trying to catch something too heavy and the pain was terrible. African Massage fixed it. The owner is the person who teaches other LMT's and certifies them under North Carolina mandates. Highly recommend African Massage, See for yourself the energy in motion.

After cutting down a tree My chainsaw became wedged between the logs .I tried to free the saw with a wedging bar pushing up with my shoulder forcefully. Big Mistake. The following day It was impossible for me to stand up straight without the use of my hands on my thighs. I called Jaci and she was kind enough to make a 5:15 appoint for me. I hobbled in to her office and she immediately put me on the table and went to work. As she worked, I felt myself relaxing and dozed off. the next thing I knew ,She was nudging me asking how I felt. I stood was able to rotate my hips and roll my shoulders. It

I have been a client of African Massage and Jaci Daley for the past couple of years. Jaci without a doubt is one of the best massage therapist I have ever used.
I have had a backache for the past couple of weeks which was a result of spending eights hours working in my garden weeding. It's been super painful and I just could not get comfortable. I went to go see Jaci yesterday and she spent and 1.5 hours working on my sore back and muscles. She has this amazing way of seeing where the problem is in my body and targets that area. Needs to say, she was able to work the knots out of my muscles in
