Today, as I stand here receiving my DKM-4,
I don’t see it as just another certificate.

I see a reminder.

A reminder of why I chose this path,
and why I built Tim Bodycare Massage Academy the way I did.

After many years in this industry,
I can honestly say this:

It is much easier to stay outside the system.

It is easier to speak freely without studying deeply.
Easier to teach without being questioned.
Easier to practise without accountability.

As an outsider,
no one asks about standards,
no one asks about scope,
and no one asks who takes responsibility when something goes wrong.

But the moment you step into professionalism,
everything changes.

When you are trained,
your words matter.

When you are certified,
your actions carry consequences.

When you hold a DKM-4,
you don’t just represent yourself —
you represent the profession.

That is why this certification means so much to me.

DKM-4 is not about status.
It is not about recognition.

It is about structure,
ethics,
and responsibility.

As the founder of Tim Bodycare Massage Academy,
I never wanted to build a place that only teaches techniques.

Anyone can teach techniques.

What we aim to build is professionals.

Professionals who understand anatomy,
who respect evidence,
who know their limits,
and who are brave enough to say,
“I don’t know yet — let me check.”

Because real confidence does not come from speaking loudly.
It comes from being accountable.

This DKM-4 reminds me that learning does not stop
just because you have experience.

In fact, the more experience you have,
the more careful you must be.

And that is the value I want this academy to carry forward:

Not shortcuts.
Not exaggerated claims.
Not popularity built on confidence alone.

But credibility built on knowledge, discipline, and ethics.

So today, I accept this DKM-4
not as the end of my journey,
but as a responsibility.

If you are serious about therapeutic massage,
I encourage you to take the proper path —
start with SKM-3 and continue to DKM-4.

These certifications build real knowledge,
ethical practice,
and professional accountability,
aligned with national standards and the direction of the Ministry of Health.

This is how we protect our clients,
strengthen our profession,
and earn long-term trust.

At Tim Bodycare Massage Academy,
this is the path we believe in
and the path we stand by.

Thank you.

Tim Low, The Founder of Tim Bodycare Massage Academy
