Massage Therapy Program |
MTTI/WellSpring's Massage Therapy Program is designed to provide a comprehensive foundation in bodywork technique, anatomy & physiology and business practices. The Program also prepares graduates to be nationally certified – an important credential for entering the massage profession. Upon completion of the Program, graduates are eligible to sit for the National Certification Exam and for licensing in most states and municipalities.
Our massage program features extensive training in advanced, neuromuscular techniques, which are increasingly called for in medical and athletic venues. Preparing graduates to work in partnership with physical therapists, chiropractors, athletic trainers and medical doctors is given major emphasis in our program.
Beyond this, our incorporation of a basic wellness curriculum is also seen as a differentiating benefit of the program. Massage practitioners increasingly find that clients are craving direct and honest guidance about how to maintain a healthier lifestyle in general. Our program prepares practitioners to provide this guidance with the inclusion of classes on stress management, nutrition and general wellness concepts.
Students who enroll in our accelerated daytime program (two days a week, no evenings or weekends), can complete the program in less than 12 months. Our Evening/Weekend program (two evenings a week and about every other weekend), allows students to complete the program in just over 13 months.
Our Program includes classes such as Basic Swedish Massage, Anatomy & Physiology, Specialty Massage, Advanced Massage Techniques, Assessment & Documentation Skills, Eastern Bodywork Techniques, Communication Skills, Kinetic Anatomy, Sports Massage, Wellness & Nutrition, Pathology, Business Practices, Clinical Internship and a wide range of other complementary therapies.

Fitness Training & Wellness Program |
MTTI/WellSpring’s accelerated Fitness Training & Wellness Program gives you the tools needed to transform your passion for fitness into an exciting new career as a Certified Professional Trainer. The Program offers a high quality, campus-based experience featuring extensive hands-on training - delivered by experienced instructors, active in the industry. Upon completion, you will have the knowledge and confidence to assess fitness and sports performance clients, and design training programs to help them meet their goals.
The Program features a double certification as a Certified Personal Trainer (CPT) and Corrective Exercise Specialist (CES), and includes extensive, supportive training in wellness, nutrition and other longevity enhancement practices. As a result, graduates will be qualified to help clients across all wellness dimensions in their quest for optimal health.
The CPT and CES certifications are provided by the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM), who is recognized by most national fitness clubs as the gold standard in CPT certification. 93% of NBA athletic trainers hold the NASM Performance Enhancement Specialist Advanced Specialization. NASM certified personal trainers are reported to earn 43% more than the average trainer. Once you pass the certification exams, you will have the credentials that will earn the respect of your peers and help secure employment at top health clubs and fitness centers nationwide.
At the core of the training, is the exclusive evidence-based OPT model developed by Dr. Michael Clark – physical therapist for the NBA’s Phoenix Suns, and a leading advocate of performance enhancement among professional athletes. The beauty of Dr. Clark’s OPT model is that it works just as effectively for family fitness training as it does for high powered professional athletes.
By enrolling in our accelerated daytime program (two days a week, no evenings or weekends), students can complete the program in less than 6 months. Our Evening/Weekend program (two evenings a week and about two weekends per month), allows a student to complete the program in just over 6 months.
Some courses included in the Fitness Training & Wellness Program are Personal Fitness Training, Corrective Exercise Training, Concepts in Wellness, Consulting Skills, Wellness & Nutrition, Stress Management Facilitation, Environmental Influences on Wellness, Fitness Center Operations, Business Practices and Externship.

Here’s What Makes MTTI/WellSpring Different |
Natural Health and Wellness Focus
MTTI/ WellSpring has focused on educating students in natural health and wellness for the past 20 years. Every student receives solid basics in general wellness, nutrition and stress management as a compliment to their massage or fitness training practice.
Class schedules to fit your life
Classes are offered during the day (2 week days per week), or evenings/weekends (two evenings per week and two weekends per month).
Nationally Accredited
Accreditation by the Accrediting Bureau of Health Education Schools (ABHES), and recognition by the U.S. Department of Education ensures excellent training. Less than half of massage and fitness training programs in the U.S. are offered at accredited institutions.
Financial Assistance
Our financial advisors will present a variety of financial tools and grants that are available to students who qualify, including Federal Student Aid via the federal government's Title IV Program.
Continuous Career Support
MTTI/WellSpring’s career placement team helps students discover the career niche that is just right for them, and then we help them connect with preferred employers. MTTI doesn't guarantee placement, but we are proud of our high job placement rate.
