Massage
Therapy is meaningful work in which you can make a
difference in the quality of life for others and
yourself. Never sell yourself short by settling for less
than a high quality education. Your education is an
investment in your future. |
- Learn as much as you can about the profession of massage
therapy in Ohio.
- Read the Scope of Practice governing the licensure and
practice of massage therapy in Ohio. Go to our State of Ohio
Medical Board Link.
- The school should encourage and/or facilitate your talking
with any current student or graduates of your choosing (not
just those picked by the school.)
- Insist
on seeing accurate pass/fail rates from the Federated States
of Massage
Therapy Board's Massage and Bodywork Licensing Exam (MBLEX).
These pass
rates are sent to each massage school. This will show you
how SHI is
doing, and how SHI is doing in relationship to other Ohio
massage
schools. They also show how SHI is doing in comparison to
national pass
rates on the MBLEX.
- Talk with faculty who teach at the schools you are
considering and discuss curriculum, classroom hours, their
training, and philosophy about education. Ask for the names
of instructors.
- Attend an orientation or open house, tour the school and
ask to visit a regularly scheduled class.
- Receive a massage from a graduate of the school you are
considering.
- Discuss tuition and all costs involved in your whole
education, financial plans, refund policies, and make sure
these are in writing. There should be no small print,
"hidden" costs, or long term debt for your education.
- Find out how long the school has existed. Contact the
State of Ohio Medical Board for information about the
school. Contact the Better Business Bureau to find out about
their standing in the community.
- Ask yourself which school more closely represents your
professional goals and is a good match with your
personality. On which campus do you feel most comfortable?
Geography and a school's
advertising budget are probably two of the worst ways in
which to select a school...however tempting they may be!
GET A
LOT OF EDUCATION FOR YOUR MONEY AT SHI
At SHI, we have worked
very hard to keep costs down for students so
that you have money to set up a practice when you graduate.
Also, our
founders did not want you to be trapped by years of paying
off a school
loan. This was the desire of the two healthcare providers
who founded
SHI and we carry on that tradition today.
GRADUATE
FROM MASSAGE SCHOOL WITH NO DEBT.
Paying back school loans
after graduation means you don’t have as much money to start
up your own practice in Massage Therapy.
However, that does not mean
you receive less of an education. In fact, SHI teaches you
everything you need to know to pass the state and national
licensure exam plus much more!!
As part of your regular curriculum, you will study and be
competent to
practice:
- Swedish Massage Therapy
- Craniosacral Therapy
- Myofascial Therapy
- Muscle Energy Techniques
- Business practices for the Massage Therapist
- Touch Pro Chair Massage
- Thermal Modalities
- Massage
Clinics at the VA Hospital Pain Clinic, Shriner’s Burn
Hospital,
Hospices, drug rehab facilities, private practices, nursing
homes and
many more...you choose what real life experience you want
for preparing
you to practice.
DON’T
LET OUR LOW TUITION COST FOOL YOU. IT IS LESS THAN OTHERS
BECAUSE
SHI CARES ABOUT ITS STUDENTS
AND THEIR FUTURE.
