• Certification provides entry into an exclusive, expert group of practitioners who have taken their training to the next step, affording the sense of satisfaction and confidence needed to differentiate themselves from all the other massage and bodywork therapists out there.
• The most exclusive and best-paying spas and wellness centers in the world require, as a condition of employment, a practical achievement qualification over and above continuing education credits for time spent in classroom training.
