| In
June 2006, GwinnettCollege acquired
Rising Spirit Institute of Natural
Health. After reviewing many
massage therapy programs, it
was our belief that their program
was the best around. After the
change of ownership, we began
the process to gain approval
to offer this program. On November
17, 2006, we received approval
from the Accrediting Council
for Independent Colleges and
Schools. After approval from
accreditation, we began the
process of preparing our facility
for the program.
The focus
of our Massage Therapy program
is to give you the knowledge,
skills, and business acumen
to become a successful, prosperous
Massage Therapist. Now students
can take this program at our
Gwinnett / Lilburn, Dunwoody
/ Atlanta, or Marietta campus. |

The Massage Therapy Program is a
well-planned sequence of courses,
with each class preparing the student
for the more intensive information
to follow. The curriculum reinforces
the mission of the program, which
is to give each individual the scientific
knowledge, manual skills, and mastery
of business to successfully become
a professional massage therapist.
Three areas of study form the CORE
of the curriculum. The CORE curriculum
encompasses:
(1) Exact Knowledge of Musculoskeletal
Anatomy and Kinesiology.
(2) Excellence in Applying Swedish
/ Deep Tissue Massage, NeuroMuscular
Therapy, Chair Massage and Reflexology.
(3) The Ability and Motivation to
Be a Success at “The Business of Massage
Therapy.”

The Massage Therapy program
is also designed to transfer
all of its credits into our
Associate of Science Degree
in Business program. This will
equip graduates with the skills
necessary to run their own practices
and offer them the opportunity
to continue beyond an associate
degree through one of our articulation
agreements. |

Spirit Institute in Marietta
