Admissions
| MTIC is devoted to high quality education for massage therapy. We teach
the fundamentals that provide the base for developing advanced skills.
Special emphasis is placed on massage skills, soft tissue normalization,
neuromuscular balancing, the use of efficient biomechanics and postural
balance. We use an integrative approach to acquaint the student with a
broad spectrum of ideas and methods used in massage and holistic health.
Prospective applicants are welcome to schedule an appointment with MTIC.
We will assist the prospective student in making applications decisions.
It is the philosophy of the school to admit all people who have a strong
desire to learn massage and have the ability to appreciate and take advantage
of the unique curriculum at MTIC.
Each applicant who qualifies for admissions will be assessed for qualities
appropriate for the practice of massage, including education, motivation,
level of maturity, ability and communication skills. Students receive
a free catalog when they call to request one, or when they come to the
school for an interview or a tour. |
Equal Opportunity Policy |
| MTIC does not discriminate on the basis of race, gender, age, sexual
orientation, religion, national or ethnic origin, disability or handicap,
or other status when admitting students to its programs. Our requirements
are uniformly applied for all students. The administrators of the school
are designated to ensure that the school efforts comply with this policy.
We make accommodations for students with disabilities on an individual
basis, depending on the situation. In most cases, the special considerations
require additional expenses beyond our regular fees. In this case, the
student will be responsible for any additional costs. Our training is
physically challenging in itself, so those who are physically challenged
may not be able to benefit from our training.
