Questions about Massage School?

ASIS massage Education prides itself for it’s personal approach to massage therapy and massage education.

Question with boldness even the existence of a God;
because, if there be one,
he must more approve of the homage of reason,
than that of blind-folded fear. Thomas Jefferson

Join The Growing Field Of Health Care
In the U.S., Massage Therapists are being recognized as health care professionals and receiving pay from insurance companies for their services. In today’s world of stress and conflict, more and more people are seeking out massage as an integral part of their health care regime. In 2005, 27% of the US population reported that they had received at least one massage throughout their life. This is an increase from 19% in 1995.

Career Opportunities
According to the AMTA, in 2004, 23% of massage therapists worked in healthcare. Over 50% of practitioners work as independent therapists. The remainder work for spas, chiropractic offices, cruise ships, sports teams, rehabilitation and pain management centers, hospitals and other health care facilities. In 2002, alternative health care generated 36 Billion dollars.

Become a Licensed Professional
Each state handles licensure differently. As of 2009, 42 states either required the NCTMB or Mblex as the entrance exam. Your license denotes the mark of a true professional committed to a safe and ethical practice, while increasing your employment opportunities and mobility between states.

Work Independently
Create your own hours while working in one of the fastest growing industries.

Income Potential
The U.S. Department of Labor reports that the median yearly income of a massage therapist, is approximately $35,000 based on a 25 hour work week. On average nationally, in 2005, massage therapists earned $23.82/hr.

The Spa Industry
In 2006, ISPA noted that the spa industry reported 9.6 billion dollars in revenue. Since 2004, the total number of spa employees nearly doubled to 300,000. In the U.S., the number of spas has grown at an annual rate of 20% for the past 8 years.

We work on ourselves in order to help others, but also we help others in order to work on ourselves.
