OTS Massage Academy meets all State requirements, while focusing on our training and students. We have an internal process that allows each student the individual attention one needs. Our student-to-teacher ratio is half of what the state of Texas allows, which promotes a more personal learning environment. (Our CE ratio is no more than 8-10 students per one instructor.)
Extensive Education on the Human Body
You will be educated on how all the systems work together and how to help such systems function at an optimum level. You will also learn techniques such as: Deep Tissue Therapy, Trigger Point Therapy, Range of Motion Assessments, Client Assessments, Myofascial Release, and good body mechanics, just to name a few!
