Therapy Massage
What schools would you recommend to get a degree in Massage Therapy?
Residents in Northern VA / DC / Baltimore region. There are fantastic schools here that I prepare for the competitive world of massage therapy?
I have no idea what the first poster was talking, but you could try the Northern Virginia School of Massage Therapy in Falls Church. After completing their courses, which will take about 6 months, you take the national examination. They teach all types of massages. www.nvschoolofmassage.com. Another that I think is about the Potomac Massage Training Institute in Washington, DC. Good luck.
