It depends where you get the training, what you plan to use it for, and whether your course is recognised by any controlling body in your area.
I know one local "college" that charges top money to train masseurs but teaches very little. When Mrs Didge completed her course she found that her instructor was a student who had completed the course the previous year and had no practical experience. She also learned, too late, that her qualification would not be recognised by any reputable association.
If you only want to massage family or friends then any course might be sufficient, but don't make the mistake of paying too much for one.
