The Certificate of Competency CCT in Massage Therapy program builds strong foundational skills for students, equipping them with the tools necessary to succeed in the massage therapy industry.
Massage therapists use the professional art of therapeutic touch to facilitate healing in the body. The Massage Therapy Focus is placed on structural massage - the ability to couple and apply a deep understanding of anatomy with powerful tissue sculpting techniques in order to create radical change in the body.
Students learn how to use hands, fingers, forearms, knuckles, fists and elbows when working with the soft tissues of the body. While the program centers heavily on anatomy, Swedish massage, and deep tissue massage, it rounds out students' education with exposure to Asian modalities, sports massage, pregnancy massage and business classes.
This program provides the training necessary for success in the massage therapy industry regardless of the setting: private practice, spas, fitness centers, sports teams, hospitals, rehabilitation centers and chiropractic offices.
This program is designed to meet education requirements for licensure or certification in the State of Arizona. Granting licensure and certification is the sole responsibility of the state board or approval agency.
