As part of massage therapy training in the United States, students are required to complete a certain number of hours actually practicing what they have learned on real clients. This typically takes place in a school clinic, where students work on clients while under the supervision of a certified massage therapy instructor.

Massage therapy schools can vary in their physical size, student body, and accommodations for both students and patrons of a school’s massage clinic. As individuals explore their options and begin the selection process, it will often become obvious that there are two primary choices.

Massage therapy schools teach more than just the basics of massage these days; they are focusing more and more on business ethics and practical business skills. Why? Because more and more massage therapists are flying solo- that is, they are opening their own business.
