Alexandria School of Scientific Therapeutics, Natural Healers

The Alexandria School of Scientific Therapeutics was founded in 1982 by Herbert and Ruthann Hobbs, to offer quality education to those people who wish to have a career in Massage Therapy. Ruthann has studied at various schools for many years both throughout the United States, Canada and Europe, and now feels that the time has come for her to share her knowledge with those who will carry forward the work that she loves. We are seeking to train the serious Therapist and the ones who are willing to put forth the extra effort; we hope you will join us in our efforts to be better educated and more qualified in every area of our work.

What's Expected

The Alexandria School of Scientific Therapeutics, Inc. follows the current American Massage Therapy Association guidelines. The Emergency Medical Technician Training that we have required in the past has now been replaced by the Red Cross First Responder course. This programs meets our needs for the Massage Therapist and is taught by David and Margaret Edenfield who are licensed E. M. T. Instructors for the State of Indiana since 1976. Should the prospective student prefer to take the EMT training, or has already been through EMT training, they would be exempt from the First Responder requirement, which would eliminate the hours and the money required of this part. Testing through the First Responder is also an option. This should be discussed at the interview.

Philosophy

At the Alexandria School of Scientific Therapeutics, Inc. we put the student first. We want to know that the people we train are good reputable people and have the knowledge to be the best they can be in the field. We are willing to go to the limits to achieve this goal. We perceive our school as a Response/Information Center for our graduates as well as our students, and promote continuing education at a reasonable cost.

You must be 18 years of age, have a high school diploma, GED, or equivalent, have an interview with the Administrator and/or Director, and be in good health.
