Sports Massage

sports massageThe Sports Massage Career Track Program (designed by professional Russian and American sports massage therapists) prepares students to specialize in sports massage and work with athletes and teams, both amateur and professional. Sports Massage Career Track students receive detailed instruction on the human athletic body and basic physiological processes and are instructed on proper massage techniques for specific types of athletic activities. Students learn how to assess an athlete’s movement, create strategies for optimum performance, and recognize and treat abnormalities and specific injuries. The Professional Massage Therapy Program constitutes the first three full-time quarters of the Sports Massage Career Track Program. Successful completion of the Professional Massage Therapy Program is required for admittance to the Sports Massage Career Track Program. The Professional Massage Therapy Program prepares students to become successful practicing bodyworkers. The Program exceeds standards set by COMTA, by national certification, and by most state and municipal governments for licensing. The Professional Massage Therapy Program teaches the art and science of massage therapy, while also teaching sound business practices which prepare students for success in the marketplace. In the Professional Massage Therapy Program, students learn light energy work as well as structural bodywork modalities, Eastern as well as Western theory and technique, and how to treat specific pain and dysfunction as well as a holistic approach to health and healing.
