Professional Massage Practitioner
The Professional Massage Practitioner diploma program is offered through an 11 month comprehensive program. This is the full-time option; the part-time option is 22 months. Each program exceeds the 700-hour requirement for massage therapy training in Arizona. Upon completion, students are prepared for an entry-level position or may choose to begin their own practice.
This 750-hour program includes all core competencies required of a classically trained massage therapist, plus additional hours of training in one or two primary specialty areas which interest you! Think of this specialty as a minor to your Massage diploma!
Not only will you earn Certification in each specialty, you will also have a true edge over other licensed massage therapists when applying for employment or starting a private practice.
