Anatomy and Physiology of Systems
This class explores the structure and function of the human body in a system-by-system approach. In addition to learning the basic information, emphasis is placed upon clinical and applied information relevant to the massage therapist.

Assessment Skills
Students will learn how to assess the musculoskeletal condition of a massage client. They will be able to determine if it is necessary to refer to another health care professional. They will also know which muscles to work on a client’s complaint and how to evaluate if improvement is being made.

Body/Mind Connection
Massage therapy directly affects the physical body and indirectly alters the client’s well-being. Classes will explore the interconnections between ways the body can affect the mind and how the mind can create wellness or disease. These classes are presented within the Swedish/Deep Tissue course.

Business Mastery
Massage, aside from being a healing art, is a business. In this critically important class, the student will be prepared to become a self-employed businessperson. The student will learn the steps and mental attitude necessary to become a successful entrepreneur. We prepare the student for the “business of massage”. As we like to say, "It's one thing to learn to give a massage, it's another to learn how to make a career in massage."
