"In my 15+ year professional association with Laurie and Rick I have been most impressed by their ability to both develop and teach massage therapy education. I consistently witnessed them hold students to high standards of performance and ethical responsibility while encouraging each person to be creative and individual in their application of the work. Laurie and Rick have created a new program that combines a superior anatomy and pathology education with a strong assessment background. This training enhances the therapists' ability to identify the safest and most effective treatment techniques. Their unique and entertaining presentation skills provide students of all levels with an enjoyable learning experience that allows them to understand and retain this material."

Our Program

Our program is comprised of the following four courses, which include comprehensive study of the structure, function, assessment, palpation, and treatment of each region of the body:

Introductory Course
Lower Extremity Course
Axial Skeleton Course
Upper Extremity Course

We start by providing you with a strong understanding of Anatomy and Physiology, Medical Terminology and Swedish Massage, the foundation you will build your education on.

You then begin a comprehensive study of the advanced techniques most widely used in the industry today and the health sciences you will need to master in order to pass exams necessary for state licensure.

We complete your education by adding the techniques that will make you a well-rounded therapist: lymphatic massage, sports massage, seated massage, spa treatments and reflexology.

Our exclusive sequence of classes helps the average student remember the material presented without the need for assigned homework. Each student can personally tailor their home study to meet their individual needs.
