Associate Degree or Diploma

Massage Therapy

In addition to a strong foundational curriculum, designed to prepare for the successful completion of the licensing requirements to pass the Ohio State Medical Board Exam, we have added the following material:

Body Mechanics: In order to protect the longevity of our careers as a Massage Therapist, a basic knowledge of proper body mechanics is a must. Instructors will reinforce these skills throughout your stay at Stautzenberger.

Massage TherapyContraindications: As a massage Therapist you can offer tremendous benefits to your clients, however you must also be equipped with sufficient knowledge of the few conditions for which massage is contraindicated. During the course of your career at Stautzenberger you will learn those conditions and put that knowledge into practice by developing SOAP charts on clients during the hands-on portion of your program.

Massage Clinic: As a student at Stautzenberger, you will learn first hand, the skills needed to operate a successful private practice. You will act as the owner of your own business by handling clients as they arrive for appointments in our clinic, including taking client health profiles, developing SOAP charts and handling payments and offering receipts under the supervision of your instructor.

This teaching methodology provides our students with optimum learning tools, setting the Massage Therapy Program at Stautzenberger College a cut above the rest.
