Massage Therapy Classes for the Roseville Area

Come and be part of a learning community where excellence comes first. At CenterPoint Massage & Shiatsu Therapy School two generations of students have found exceptional training leading to a successful and rewarding career in massage therapy and bodywork. Located close to the University of Minnesota campus, CenterPoint offers a curriculum integrating Eastern and Western massage therapies and philosophies for a unique educational experience. Our core curriculum is unparalleled, and we've set the standard for massage therapy training in the Midwest.

Our program includes Swedish massage and advanced therapeutic massage techniques as well as a strong foundation in Western science (anatomy, physiology, pathology, and kinesiology). As a part of your training you'll develop superior palpation and therapeutic massage techniques, and you'll be able to appropriately respond to a wide range of needs among your clients. As a trained massage therapist you'll be able to offer client-centered care for such things as:

  • Stress and relaxation
  • Repetitive use syndrome
  • Overexertion
  • Postural tension
  • And work, vehicle, or sports injuries

If you're interested in a fulfilling career assisting people to manage stress, recover from injury, and manage pain, the therapeutic massage training program at CenterPoint will give you the skills necessary to succeed. Academics, practical techniques, and compassion are a part of your educational experience, with plenty of opportunities for one-on-one interaction and hands-on practice at our on-site clinic.
