Massage Arts Center of Philadelphia
Owned and Operated by Practitioners
Thanks for your interest in the Massage Arts Center of Philadelphia — we offer much more than a basic education!
About Us
At the Massage Arts Center, we strive to offer real-world experiences inspired by our faculty's practice of healing-arts. We incorporate current developments from trusted, peer-reviewed sources into ancient practices of massage and other therapeutic bodywork practices.
Community outreach and other experiential learning segments allow students to gain relevant competencies in an ethical and professional environment serving as the foundation for their future practice.
Deciding to practice therapeutic massage and Asian bodywork therapies is a personal statement of self-development; you cannot assist others if you do not assist yourself first. Choose to acquire and develop those skills in an environment with trusted and professional faculty, among classmates focused on those same goals. Massage Arts Center is owned and operated by professional practitioners. What that means for you is that administrative, classroom and clinical decisions are made for the greater interests of the profession first. No multi-trade school run by its bottom line can deliver the same level of service when it comes to your career as can the Massage Arts Center of Philadelphia! We Deliver Integrity.
