Who We Are
Massage Abroad is an inspiring massage therapy program where education meets adventure.
The massage school abroad intensive was organized and created by Northwest Academy for the Healing Arts, a family of small Washington State based massage therapy schools. It is our philosophy that attending massage school is not only an opportunity to learn a new skill, but allows space self-exploration, to be artistic, and embrace our curiosity about human body. We then thought; “Why not offer this wonderful opportunity in exotic and exciting places, surrounded but nature and beauty? Thus, allowing our students to become talented and skilled massage therapists while also exploring a new culture and connecting with mother nature.”
Our faculty and staff is a diverse group of US trained healthcare providers consisting of; Massage Therapists, Naturopathic Physicians, Physical Therapists, Chiropractors, and Kinesiologists. Our diverse backgrounds allow us to offer a variety of different philosophies regarding health, wellness, and the practice of massage therapy.
