Upon completion of this program, the student will be eligible to apply and sit for the exam required for registration with the State of Texas Department of Health Massage Therapy Registration Program.

Some classes start on a monthly basis and class size is limited to 20 students per instructor. Day and evening classes are available. Contact the school location for more information and start dates. Financial Aid is available to students in the Massage Therapy Advanced program who qualify.

Students will learn how to communicate, understand and improve their lives as well as their client's lives. Massage therapists and their skills are sought by massage clinics, chiropractic offices, health spas, beauty salons, cruise ships, sports teams, sporting events, gyms, hospitals, residential care facilities and more! The possibilities are limitless because a massage therapist just needs enough room to set up his or her massage table or chair in order to work.

Students at our school have the opportunity to work on members of the public in the Student Massage Clinic. In the clinic, students will learn to communicate with their clients while perfecting their newly acquired skills during their clinic internship.

At the completion of the program, students will receive a Certificate of Completion. Graduates of the massage therapy program will be eligible for placement assistance. Though placement is not guaranteed, the school will assist the student in finding suitable employment in the massage or related fields.
