The Massage Therapy Diploma Program: Honolulu, San Diego

This program provides participants with the essential skills and knowledge that will enable them to qualify for a entry-level position as a massage therapist.

Massage therapy is a means of remedying ailments, soothing overworked muscles, relieving stress, repairing sports injuries, and encouraging general health. These are achieved by manipulation of soft tissue, which in turn aids in proper circulation. Massage therapy is targeted to meet the physical needs of the clients and provided by individuals trained to provide specialized care.

As a massage therapist, you can specialize in many different modalities, or types of massage. Swedish massage, deep tissue massage, reflexology, sports massage, acupressure and neuromuscular massage are a few of many types of massage therapy available.

Nearly all massage therapists will work by appointment. Clients usually seek or are referred to a therapist for a specific type of massage. This is because massage therapists usually specialize in just a few areas. In order to create a continuous and loyal customer base, Massage therapists must build a strong a relationship with their clientele.

While attending the Massage Therapy Program, you will gain the skills and knowledge that will help you to land an entry level position in the Massage Therapy field. The program has eight learning units known as modules. Once you complete the first seven modules, you then need to take part in an internship at the on-campus Massage Therapy Clinic. Once there, practical hands-on experience will be one of the things you receive by performing massages to people in the general public. You will be given a diploma and will have the essential competence and skills needed to start your career in massage therapy after you have completed the Massage Therapy Program.
