About Course

The objective of the program is to prepare students to enter the workforce as an entry level Massage Therapist. The program provides the student with a career in the rapidly growing profession of massage therapy, which provides the student with an opportunity to gain satisfaction in helping clients to recover from injuries and improve overall wellness, as well as treat clients with chronic diseases.

Massage therapists treat clients by using touch to manipulate the soft-tissues of the body. With their touch, therapists relieve pain, help rehabilitate injuries, improve circulation, relieve stress, increase relaxation, and aid in the general wellness of clients.
