Testimonials

My experience at Northern Virginia School of Massage has been exceptional! I could not have asked for better instructors or a better learning environment. Northern Virginia School of Massage has helped mold me into the Massage Therapist that I am today. Many thanks to Mike and his staff!

- Jeremy, LMT

At first I signed up for this place because it was close by and convenient to get to. But I had no idea how well put together the curriculum was. The teachers and staff were more than just personable. You actually want to be friends with them because they have such great vibes. If I could go back and start over, I would. I had such great experience learning at this school and I recommend it to anybody that is interested in healing others.

- Edwardo, LMT

AMAZING Continuing Ed classes! I am from NC and drive up 4-5 hours to take these classes. Love the school and area. Such an energetic place to study and learn!

- Lisa, LMT

I graduated in January of 2016. Massage therapy has been an awesome choice for me and it came to fruition from NVSTM and the amazing staff (Tara & Judy!!!). I dreaded what a career change this "late" in life might mean, and if I could even handle it. The school's methodology of teaching made everything approachable and easy to grasp even though from the outside, it looked like we were being thrown to the wolves. I learned more than I ever thought I would know about the human body and also made some excellent friends along the way.
