Testimonials

“The warm, friendly atmosphere and open, nurturing approach we experienced while at FSM has left an indelible mark on us. The type of education that we were able to experience at FSM was new to us at the time and we are eternally grateful for it. We learned so much, both as individuals and as a family, as Massage Therapists and as people.”

— Greta and Dave L.., 1994 FSM Alumni

“It has been four years since I graduated from FSM. What a wonderful journey life has been since then! I was just thinking about how lucky I was to attend your school and just how much it changed my life.”

— Sharon R. 1996 FSM Alumus

“We have a staff of 45 massage therapists and are always looking for the best in the field. The FSM graduates have consistently proved to be the best massage therapists. We would love to have more of your graduates work here.”

— Amina, 1994 FSM Alumnus and Massage Supervisor at Spa Ojai, California

“I cannot thank each of you enough for the total experience you guided me through and the amazing teaching I received. I have a successful private practice in Chicago - mostly deep tissue and specific injury. My clients have never felt massages like this before, and I give you the credit for all the love and teaching I received at FSM.”

— Sonya B., 1995 FSM Alumnus

“How can I communicate the absolute love, the sense of miracle I feel when I think of my experience at FSM? Words as evidence will have to suffice in place of the hugs that would follow, the tears of pure joy and wonder that I shed. Before I left FSM, I said that if I never did a massage, the education I received was worth every penny, and more. Luckily for me I get to practice massage now too. What a dream come true!”

— Ruth M., 1997 FSM Alumnus

“For the last ten years I have been a therapist at a Vermont Spa and combined with the private practice I’ve built over the last 13 years I've managed to touch and influence the quality of thousands of people's lives while enjoying the rewards of living in a beautiful and peaceful mountain environment. Choosing FSM was the best decision I ever made and I know that I am only one of the thousands of students that probably feel the same way.”

— Joseph L., 1987 FSM Alumnus
