The National Massage Therapy Institute (NMTI) has a singular focus and passion: professional massage therapy training. The school’s Massage Therapy program has been carefully crafted by local industry experts and aims to produce highly qualified massage therapists to meet the industry’s growing demand.
The number of Americans receiving massages has more than doubled in the last decade (now over 114 million treatments per year) and the profession has consistently been one of the fastest growing in the country in recent years.*
Massage therapy has become widely accepted by both the public and the medical community. No longer just an enjoyable pastime and means of relieving stress, massage has become an important component in treating many types of injuries and medical conditions and enhancing athletic performance.
NMTI positions students for academic and professional success, including time management and study skills, certification exam preparation and strategies, and employability and career skills.
NMTI is proud to be accredited by COMTA (The Commission on Massage Therapy Accreditation), an agency listed by the U.S. Department of Education as a nationally recognized accrediting agency and by the Accrediting Bureau of Health Education Schools (ABHES). NMTI is also a member of the American Massage Therapy Association and the Associated Bodywork and Massage Professionals, and certified by the National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork.
