Return To Massage Article Archive   Massage Universities: Teaching tomorrows Natural Healers By CarolAnn Bailey-Lloyd Good examples of some of the many healing arts that are taught at massage universities include Lomi Lomi (Hawaiian massage), Oriental massage, Thai massage, Tuina (Chinese medical massage), esalen massage, Feldenkrais, acupressure, deep tissue massage, sports massage, Swedish massage, chair massage, perinatal massage, geriatric massage, cancer massage, lymphatic massage, among numerous others. Future natural healers discover that massage universities and schools not only extend practical training in various body work modalities, but also in natural healthcare therapies like herbology, aromatherapy, holistic nutrition, spa management, hydrotherapy, energy medicine, and more. In addition, all massage universities provide basic anatomy and physiology. Students enrolled in massage universities will often learn about kinesiology, which is a technique that measures muscle resistance in relation to common pathologies. Furthermore, students gain hands-on, clinical training in various massage techniques. While most massage universities and schools offer standard training between 300 to 500 hours, prospective students find that a great number of these educational institutions provide up to and over 1,000 clinical and classroom hours. Aside from the potential of earning lucrative wages,* (According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, massage therapists can earn over $30 hourly.) certified and/or licensed massage therapists who have graduated from one of many massage universities and colleges find the biggest rewards in personally being able to help in healing others. If you (or someone you know) are interested in finding massage universities, let career training within fast-growing industries like massage therapy, cosmetology, acupuncture, oriental medicine, Reiki, and others get you started!
