Core Program

Our primary goal is to offer you a quality education. Our interest is in working with “individuals” and not “numbers”. Our desire to grow is measured and in keeping current with the field of massage as opposed to overcrowding our classrooms.

Accreditation. Myotherapy College of Utah is accredited by the Accrediting Commission of Career Schools and Colleges (ACCSC).

Flexibility in Scheduling. Students ‘go at their own pace’ by choosing to take as many classes as they want during each ten-week term. Students can also mix day and evening classes.

Internship Student Clinic. Similar to a real working clinic, our Student Clinic allows students to work on clients and practice what they are learning. Clients are surveyed and encouraged to give the students constructive feedback after each massage to help students improve.

Choice in Elective Classes. Students have the freedom to choose specific classes that will help them develop their own specialty. You are not required to choose your specialty prior to taking your first classes.

Continuing Education. Myotherapy College of Utah is approved by the National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage & Bodywork (NCBTMB) as a Continuing Education Provider. #450162-06

About

There are many options for employment in the field of Massage Therapy.

Myotherapy College of Utah gives every student a well-rounded and

comprehensive education to cover the diversity required in the working world.

One area of growth in the employment arena is within the clinical setting.

Physicians are now referring more patients to Massage Therapists to aid in the

recovery of an injury or illness. Our Clinical approach teaches you to understand

how the body is designed to function but also how it will dysfunction. To

provide this understanding students will take a minimum of three Anatomy/

Physiology classes and three Pathology classes. This training allows our Licensed

Massage Therapists to actually enhance their client’s specific healing process.

Whether you seek employment within a medical setting, private practice or spa/

resort, your clinical education is invaluable in relating to all of your clients’ needs.

Combined with the clinical aspects we also provide students with a holistic approach. We help you to understand

that the human body along with its mental and emotional processes is one entity. What affects one area will also

affect the whole. In order to facilitate this understanding, Myotherapy College will teach you a minimum of

seventeen massage modalities along with complementary health classes including Nutrition, Homeopathy and

Herbology. Beyond the minimum seventeen modalities, every student is allowed five credits of elective classes to

complete their graduation requirements. This freedom of choice allows students to develop a massage specialization

of their own choice. We do not make you decide your field specialty prior to ever taking a class.

The education you receive at Myotherapy College of Utah goes beyond the typical training found at some schools.

You will receive your education within a professional environment that personalizes every student’s training. Our

small class sizes provide you the one-on-one attention that you should expect and deserve.
