Massage School in Jacksonville
“I’VE ALWAYS THOUGHT ABOUT BEING A MASSAGE THERAPIST.”
We hear that a lot.
We also hear things like, “I’m no longer happy doing what I’m doing.”
Since 1992 we’ve been helping people just like you navigate their path to a better life as a Licensed Massage Therapist.
It’s time to DO SOMETHING YOU’LL LOVE AND BE LOVED FOR
Is it time to do something that will benefit you beyond a great paycheck? Massage therapy is a rewarding career that will help you accomplish your goals while helping others reach theirs. As a massage therapist, you can find fulfillment and success in a career as a professional while doing something that makes yourself and others happy.
People love their massage therapists. You’ll give many of your clients the best hour of their week. They will look forward to seeing you. You will help your clients reduce stress and relieve pain, but regardless of their reasons for seeing you, you’ll be among their favorites.
Don’t fight with irrelevance and uncertainty anymore. Find what you’re looking for by becoming a professional in a meaningful career.
Affordable
Alpha School of Massage is dedicated to keeping massage education affordable. Student loans aren’t necessary.
