MEDICAL TRAINING COLLEGE
Therapeutic Massage Therapeutic Massage opens a variety of rewarding, interesting career prospects for helping others - from day spas to resorts, cruise ships to health clubs, wellness centers to salons, sports teams to hospices, and many others. Massage therapists work for others or build their own practices, setting their own schedules. We have been the Standard Of Excellence since 1992. Setting that Standard includes requiring a full 756 hours of supervised instruction - far exceeding the 500-hour minimum set by the State of Louisiana. Why so many hours? It's simple. We give you what you'll need to successfully test for National Certification (another State of Louisiana requirement to practice massage therapy), and to have all the vital skills necessary for a competent Massage Therapist.
Massage tables are provided for on-premises student use. All clinics are conducted here. Students learn a variety of massage modalities: Swedish, sports, connective tissue, neuromuscular, Shiatsu, Reflexology, hydrotherapy, pre-natal & post-natal, infant, geriatric, corporate (or chair), and massage for the physically challenged as well as the terminally ill. A good variety - and nothing you won't need. Learn a number of ways to help others by relieving pain, increasing mobility and flexibility, and improving a sense of well-being through massage therapy. Medical Training College offers exclusive Spa Therapies, including body wraps, salt glow, paraffin & mud pack treatments, hot & cold stone massage – plus wet table use, extended Hydrotherapy instruction, and all in a unique Spa-Environment lab! To complete the program, twelve hours of Business Management covers topics that deal with the day-to-day issues of Therapeutic Massage: Developing a clientele. Creating a repeat clientele. Creating a resume and developing interview skills. Do I need insurance? How much? What kind? Where do I get it? Do I need a business license? Should I incorporate a private practice? How do I protect private assets from business assets? What's an LLC? Where can I find financing to help establish a new business? Where I can get help with bookkeeping or income taxes? We deal with those questions, and more. We succeed because our graduates do.
