"Learning the mechanics of massage, along with the study of anatomy, physiology and related subjects, serve as a basic foundation for a career in massage therapy. However for massage to be therapeutically effective practitioners must utilize all aspects of sensory integration; they must listen with their hands! Only with this personal holistic approach which affects the mind, body and spirit can massage be transformed into a healing art." ---Robyn L. Zappy, Director

THERAPEUTIC MASSAGE
As the professional knows, massage therapy not only provides comfort and relaxation, which in itself can have a positve effect on one's health, but if properly applied it also can promote the healing process of injury or illness.
Although massage therapy should never take the place of appropriate medical care and treatment, it is recognized as a form of complementary medicine.* As the recognition of the therapeutic benefits of massage increases so does the need for highly skilled practitioners from reputable schools.
ACHAI offers hands-on interactive educational programs that are essential in pursuing a career in massage therapy. The varied levels of our workshops serve to enhance the knowledge and skills of allied healthcare and massage practitioners while serving the non-professional as well.
Our medically-minded instructors have many years of clinical experience; all hold either national certification or licensure with additional degrees in the applied sciences.
ACHAI also provides the services of therapeutic massage to a diverse group of clients and patients.
So whether you are a professional, novice, client or patient, ACHAI brings us all together in meeting the needs of each other through the art and science of massage therapy.
