The goal of the program is to prepare students to enter the job market as Massage Therapists. The American Massage Therapy Association defines Massage Therapy as “a profession in which the practitioner applies manual techniques and may apply adjunct therapies with the intention of positively affecting the health and well-being of the client.” Therapeutic massage is often used to aid in recovery from injury, to promote health and well-being, and as a treatment for illness or pain.

LWTC graduates will be particularly skilled at practicing in a clinic environment as part of a health provider team implementing a patient’s individualized plan of care, fitness and/or rehabilitation.
