At Southwest Institute of Healing Arts (SWIHA), we support people in doing BIG things in the world! We are most honored that the great graduates from our nationally accredited programs DO BIG things with their education!

Imagine learning marketable skills, such as Massage Therapy, Life Coaching, Yoga, Hypnotherapy, Holistic Nutrition, or Urban Farming and having the support of an entire team of people to help you secure the employment opportunity of your dreams or support you each step of the way to create your own holistic healthcare and wellness business?

For nearly 25 years we have been providing high quality, affordable education for those entering the healing arts field and for those continuing their education. Whether people choose to take classes on-campus, centrally located within the Phoenix metropolitan area a few blocks away from ASU in Tempe, Arizona or from anywhere in the world through our Online division, the results are the same! We support you in discovering your own individual gifts and we support you in taking them out into the world in a loving and profitable way when you are ready.

Years ago we started by offering a massage therapy program where YOU were encouraged to customize the curriculum to fit your intuitive gifts, choosing from a full range of therapeutic massage techniques to many energetic modalities including Reiki, Polarity, Reflexology and Aromatherapy. We are currently one of the largest providers of Massage Therapy Continuing Education (CEUs) in the country.

The college expanded its offerings over the years; we have become an awarding winning organization with many unique offerings include Natural Aesthetics, Yoga Teacher Training, Western Herbalism, and Urban Farming to name just a few.
