Massage
Therapy and Bodywork are in the Massage School Category and all of
our training's that focus on Holistic Therapies such as Counseling Skills,

School Category. Below is a listing and explanation of the programs
that
are offered within our Massage Schools category.
MASSAGE THERAPIST PROGRAM - 520 HOURS
Our
massage program was developed by Dr. Barry Green, one of only two Americans
to receive the “Greatest Massage Therapist of the 20th
Century” award, and holder of the Guinness Book of World Records
for a 50-hour Marathon Massage.
This unique program not only teaches bodywork techniques and methods,
but also emphasizes training the skills necessary to be successful in
massage.
In our three-part training of Body-Work Skills, students will develop
such skills as “connection to the client,” “working
with intention,” and “releasing the energy of trauma.” Students
will also have an opportunity to develop and maintain proper body mechanics;
a necessity for a full and rewarding massage career.
The 500-hour program includes two weekend retreats designed to provide
an immersion experience into the material, as well as an opportunity
for students to establish a deep connection to themselves and their body.
Our Massage Training is the foundation for the 1000-hour HHP program
and will also introduce students into the holistic aspects of healing,
and how these aspects integrate into a massage practice. Required Classes for this Program:

a wide variety of elective courses ranging from Shiatsu, Reiki, Jyn
Shyn, Deep Tissue Massage, Hot Stone Massage, Emotional Facilitation,
Counseling Skills, and much more. The practicum class is a hands
on learning process. This class is taught in our clinic and is a
great training process to teach you how to work in a professional
setting. You get to develop your massage skills and learn how to
work with a client. This class trains you to take what you have learned
and apply it in a way that will benefit you in your own practice.
MASSAGE TECHNICIAN - 100 HOURS
Body Mind College’s Massage Technician course
is a unique program training you in the foundational, underlying
principles of massage therapy and health as a whole. In this class
you learn all of the traditional bodywork techniques that are used
in a practice, but rather than focusing on the techniques we train
you in what is underlying the techniques. You will learn how to connect
with your client, how to find trauma in their body and how to release
it. This is a simple, but profound teaching style that we have had
great success with over the last 18 years. You will also learn the
art of T’ai Chi – the most widely used exercise in the
world. We train you in T’ai Chi so that you can learn to use
your body in a way that you will not be injured doing massage. This
is the foundational class that the rest of your education will build
upon.
