Therapeutic Massage Community Services

In order to provide a thorough education in several of our programs, we offer public services performed by our students that give them hands-on practice in the field for which they are training. Each therapeutic massage student has passed a clinical competency prior to offering services to clients.

Our lab is located in Meyer Hall and is designed to ensure the privacy of each client. Each station has a curtain to protect each client鈥檚 modesty while getting on the massage table. All clients remain draped during the massage. Only the area of the body being massaged will be undraped during the massage.

Our students will review Clinic Policies with each client at their first session (updated annually). Clients are asked to review the massage upon completion to help the instructors evaluate student performance.
