Dr. Susan Salvo shares:
"Compassion is a bridge between the client and the therapist. It is also the container for the therapeutic relationship."
About Us
Our mission is to unfold consciousness through the art and science of massage therapy.
Massage has supported people's health and well-being for centuries, and we are here to help you bring that work to your own clients. We believe healing comes from the connection between mind, body, and spirit, and our program brings the traditional roots of massage therapy into modern practice.
Our curriculum is created from the textbooks of Dr. Susan Salvo. who also leads a week-long capstone intensive each semester for our graduating students—offering a unique opportunity to deepen their learning as they prepare to enter the profession. With campuses in both Santa Fe, and Albuquerque, we're proud to train the next generation of massage therapists in New Mexico, alongside a dedicated faculty and staff.

Our world-class, renowned faculty will share their knowledge while creating a supportive community of learning together.
