So you put yourself through massage therapy school, added some professional experience to your resume and today, you can proudly say there’s a crowd of devout clients who turn to you for their massage needs. But is there a “next step” to make you an even better massage therapist? There sure is.
Education can continue even after you earn your massage therapy degree. From board certification to extra training in your favorite specialty, there are many ways you can go above and beyond massage therapy school.
