Healing Arts Center

The Healing Arts Center (HAC) is known for providing a place for people to explore the intangible aspects of existence. Their program primarily focuses on the metaphysical application of intent and energy work. If you are searching for a training program that focuses on the spirit of massage and amazing energy work the Healing Arts Center may be a great fit for you.

Their program includes training opportunities and activities that include trust falls, meditation circles, opportunities for introspection, and an enhanced understanding of philosophies outside the traditional western approach to religion and spirituality.

Selecting a massage school is one of the most important decisions you will make in your professional career. Choose one that is right for you based on your needs and interests. Research the school and determine which one is right for you.

Reputation

This school’s reputation among its alumni is marvelous.  Few organizations foster the same adoration from its graduates. If you ever have the pleasure of meeting a therapist who attended the Healing Arts Center, you will witness the radiant love they have for their instructors and the program.

Frequent Complaints by former Healing Arts Graduates

  • “I wish I was taught to be more confident with draping.”
  • “I wish we focused more on body mechanics.”
  • “I wish we spent more time practicing massage, rather than watching Osmosis Jones in class, and meditating.”

Frequent Complements by former Healing Arts Graduates

  • “I love the learning atmosphere and the teachers.”
  • “I felt like I found myself while attending HAC.”
  • “I loved going to the Healing Arts Center. It was one of the best experiences of my life.”

Professional Observations of recent Healing Arts Graduates

I invest considerable time and energy speaking with and training LMTs within our industry. It is my goal to help my peers discover prosperity, live in harmony, and have the career of their dreams. The following are my professional observations of HAC graduates based on interviews and experiencing their massage skills firsthand.

  • HAC graduates possess a magnificent aptitude for the application and understand of energy work.
  • Their hands-on application for massage is often rote, potpourri, and without confidence.
  • Their passion for massage is typically greater than graduates from other massage programs.
  • They often lack confidence with their hands-on skill in the treatment room and in auditions.

In addition to these professional observations, it appears that the Healing Arts Center has been guiding their students toward employment with the mega chains. Recent graduates have informed me their instructors told them things like: “Work for the chains for a while, get some experience and build up your skills.

This is terrible advice and one of the reasons so many LMTs washout of the massage industry within their first year of practice. The Healing Arts Center is a beautiful school with magical energy. Their culture is a wonderful place for new massage therapists to find their own way. Transitioning from HAC to the acidic work culture of the mega chains will burn your soul and break your heart. It is better to create your own practice, or work for an LMT who can guide and mentor you through your career. As an LMT you must feel free to dance and sing as you explore a life with peace. Avoid the shackles of the mega chains and find your own way.
