At MTIC, we have created a program for students interested in pursuing massage
therapy as a career. We are proud of our method teaching remedial massage
and honored to support this important trend in holistic healthcare.
A Recent History
For too long health care lacked adequate choices for the individual
in need of alternative care. Fortunately, times do change. Today, time-honored
therapies are re-emerging to claim their rightful place in healthcare.
In 1969 an estimated 4-6% of Americans were interested in receiving
holistic health care. Insurance did not cover these methods.
A Positive Trend
Today it is estimated that over 60% of Americans are using alternative
care. Holistic health care has become a multi billion dollar enterprise
and many insurance companies offer coverage for a variety of modalities
including massage therapy.
It is gratifying to see this trend. It shows the effectiveness of these
methods and establishes their legitimate place in healthcare.
In-Depth Clinical Experience
At MTIC we are proud of our faculty's broad experience and strong commitment
to excellence in massage therapy as a healing art. Our faculty has extensive
clinical experience treating cases of pain, injury, musculo-skeletal
imbalances, stress related disorders and many other modern ailments.
MTIC provides the quality instruction necessary to bring people into
this important profession.
Scientific Principles
We stress scientific principles, palpatory skills & technique along
with enhancing intuitive skills. A skilled therapist possesses abilities
in all these areas and applies them uniquely to each individual.
Massage is not a recipe, or set of techniques... it is an art and a
science. When properly applied it is an important part of healing.
Beyond Benefits
Beyond reducing pain and stress, helping heal strains, sprains and
other injuries, massage can heighten and enhance the quality of life.
Massage can:
- Open us to new growth and awareness
- Calm and clarify the mind and enhance mental function
- Increase emotional awareness and enhance coping skills
- Promote harmonious vital response and functional ease
- Improve posture and movement patterns
- Encourage personal growth and transformation
- Revitalize the spirit
- Soothe the traumas of modern existence
- Nourish body and soul
A Proud Tradition
For centuries, massage has been used for healing, longevity and personal
growth. We are proud to continue and build upon this great tradition
and to contribute to the re-emergence of this time honored profession.
