The IPSB Experience
Beyond Massage—A Process of Awakening and Healing
Aside from instruction on how to give a fantastic massage, IPSB offers an opportunity for the student to increase awareness of his or her own body, heart and mind, thus beginning to heal self while helping others to heal.
Masterful Form—The Power and Beauty
 Mastery of all artful movements, including sports, martial arts and dance, requires learning the proper form. The IPSB Massage Technique(TM), derived from the ancient art known as Tai Chi Ch’uan, is one that engages the core, the entire physical body and the life force energy that animates all living things. The result is a far more powerful, flowing and delicious sensory experience for the client, which is stress-free and energizing for the practitioner. Because our unique approach to body mechanics results in an exquisite massage, while enabling the practitioner to work longer and dramatically reduce one’s risk of injury, graduates are in high demand by employers.
The Cultivation of Sensitivity
The study of hands-on technique and anatomy/physiology is combined with in-depth training in sensory awareness, movement and body psychology. This well-rounded approach focuses on the whole person, recognizing that touching the body touches the soul.
The Depth of the IPSB Touch(TM)
Learning to touch in a fully connected manner allows a level of communication with another’s body that is deeper than physical contact alone. The connection between bodywork practitioner and client is very personal, requiring a tremendous amount of trust. Therefore, the focus at IPSB is on developing professionalism and artistry in the work. The programs are designed to create a professional career path, that also recognizes the importance of exploring the self in relation to others.
Being in Touch
Our trainings offer the student an opportunity to grow, develop, explore 
and learn in a caring, compassionate and supportive environment. It offers tools for living life as a balance between the body, mind and spirit. As that balance is cultivated, it is expressed in the quality of the caring and in the quality of the interaction between the practitioner and the client.
More Than Massage—Living the Life of Your Dreams
A IPSB/California College graduate is recognized as an innovator of holistic techniques, using creativity and skill to transform basic techniques into an artistic form that touches the lives of others, transforming them beyond your wildest dreams.
