Massage Technician Training
The 150-hour Massage Technician Program is the introduction to the field of massage and bodywork. It is the beginning of the self-exploration process and is the building block for further studies.
This program focuses on the traditional style of Swedish circulatory massage and includes T’ai Qi Chuan, body psychology, anatomy, joint mobilization, energy balancing, business practices, an introduction to deep tissue work, and chiropractic, spa and seated massage techniques.
Massage Therapist Training
The 550-hour Massage Therapist Program provides in-depth exposure to bodywork techniques.
By pursuing this course of study, the student gains increased sensitivity and more understanding of the psycho-structural process that shapes the body and mind.
