Massage Therapy Schools

Massage Therapy Schools are in the business of getting new students to fill their classes. Since massage is such a personal business that attracts caring people, what is most important is getting a quality education and more one on one training. Hands on experience and more individualized attention can usually be given in a smaller, privately owned massage school.

You can tell from the massage therapy schools website just what their intention is. If it flashes and spins around and avoids answering the most basic questions like "How much does your program cost?" or "How much will I be able to make as a massage therapist?" or it doesn't answer questions through email or phone calls and makes you have to go into the school for an appointment - you should use caution. They are trying to sell you on their school.

A good massage school will just lay out all of your options and information and let you sit in on classes as well as talk to graduates and students. You won't have to be 'sold'. You will just know in your heart if it is the right fit for you and the massage school!

You can find out more about how to research schools and decide on what school is best for you in my book - A Career in Massage - Is it for you? The truth about becoming a massage therapist. In it I have a section on what to ask potential massage schools and what to ask yourself so that you can be more aware of your own needs when it comes to choosing a massage school. You will need to know things like how many hours of training will be required for you to get your massage license, what it will be like to find a job or start your own massage business and many other things that you will be faced with in massage careers. Choosing a massage school is just the first step in becoming a massage therapist and what you get out of massage school really depends on you and what you put into massage school. Your success will depend on YOU!
