Yes you have to attend a trade school or college that specializes in massage. How long that training will last and what kind of exam you will have to take upon completion depends on your state.


Massage Magazine list state licensing requirements in every issue. You can pick up this month's copy at your local book store.


Or you can paste this link into your browser: http://www.amtamassage.org/pdf/2006_Stat鈥?/a>





Massage Magazine also has listings of schools by state- however since this is in their advertising section it will not include ALL schools.


You can also use the NCTMBW website to locate schools in your state.

Just select your state.


I would advise though if Massage is something you are still thinking about but haven't decided about go and get a professional massage. Talk to Therapist in your area to get a better feel of what the job is like and if it would suit you.What do i need to become a massage therapist?
Most massage therapists start their own business so go to college for business and marketing and then if you still want to go to massage school - it is a 6 months to one year program in trade school. You have to find out what is needed in your state as far as number of hours of training.
You could attend college courses to achieve a Certificate of Massage but I believe it would be in your best interest to attend a School of Massage to receive you Certificate because the atmosphere is more focused %26amp; centered in the specific area which you're endeavoring to study which make the environment more conducive to successfully learning the Art of Massage.
Doesn't it depend on whether or not you will be giving the happy endings? If so, i say skip college. You'll do just fine winging it.
I saw cute massage therapist girls let see
I think you will have to go to Uni because you will be studying medicine + peoples body's.


but i don't know so sorry! i'l come back and edit :D
