Our Vision
Healing Spirits is a well-rounded and
thorough training program, offering both 625 and 750 hour certifications.
Our program is unique in that it is designed for people who are
interested in studying the field of massage therapy without having
to relocate or interrupt their current occupation and/or family
life. We are a small grass-roots program
which aims to meet the unique needs of each group and each individual
in the group. The intimate size of this program promotes
in-depth learning on a personal and professional level. Each student
will leave equipped with the necessary skills for a successful practice
as a professional massage therapist.
Attention is placed on versatility
and creativity. Students will learn the theory and application of
several different types of massage. The
Healing Spirits approach will place an even greater emphasis on
helping each student find and develop their own style of practicing
therapeutic bodywork so that it comes from the heart.
This is complimented by improving the student's quality of touch,
and therefore the quality of treatment given.
We recognize that learning massage
therapy is quite different from learning many other skills. For
this reason, we employ an alternative and eclectic teaching style
that appeals to the kinesthetic faculties while honoring other types
of understanding. It is our emphasis on experiential learning that
shapes this practice-oriented program.
Balance is
the key concept at Healing Spirits. We will explore
how to do specific and technical work while maintaining the integrity
and spirit of both client and therapist. We believe that personal
awareness through touch is invaluable to the field of hands-on therapy.
It is through this awareness, along with practical training, that
inspiration for a life long career in massage therapy can evolve.
