How to Get an Official Massage Certificate in Malaysia

Have you ever dreamed of turning your passion for healing into a real, professional career?

In Malaysia, you can — and it starts with an official massage certification.

Whether you want to work in a spa, a wellness centre, or even start your own business, getting certified through SKM-3 and DKM-4 is the key to your future in the wellness industry.

Step 1: Understand What SKM-3 and DKM-4 Mean

Before you start your journey, let’s break it down:

SKM-3 (Sijil Kemahiran Malaysia Tahap 3)

This is your foundation level — perfect for beginners.
Here’s what you’ll learn:

• Anatomy & physiology basics

• Professional massage techniques (Swedish, sports, traditional, etc.)

• Client care & ethics

• Hygiene, safety, and communication

After completing SKM-3, you’ll be recognized as a qualified massage therapist and can work in spas, wellness centres, and health clubs across Malaysia.

DKM-4 (Diploma Kemahiran Malaysia Tahap 4)

This is your next step — a professional upgrade for those who already have SKM-3 or relevant experience.
You’ll learn to:

• Manage spa and wellness operations

• Handle clients and business management

• Train and supervise junior therapists

• Develop leadership and entrepreneurial skills

DKM-4 helps you move up — from therapist to trainer, manager, or spa owner.

Step 2: Choose an Accredited Training Centre

To get your official certificate, you must train at a recognized centre approved by Jabatan Pembangunan Kemahiran (JPK) — like Tim Bodycare Massage Training Academy.
