The time it takes to graduate as a Medical Massage Therapist can vary depending on the specific program and educational institution you choose. Medical Massage Therapy programs typically range from several months to a couple of years in duration.
Some programs may offer a comprehensive curriculum that covers various massage techniques, anatomy, physiology, pathology, and specific medical massage applications. These programs may take longer to complete, often spanning one to two years.
On the other hand, there are shorter and more focused programs that specifically train individuals in medical massage techniques. These programs may be completed in a matter of months, with a duration of around 500 to 1,000 hours of training.
It’s essential to research and choose a reputable and accredited institution that meets your educational and career goals. Additionally, requirements for licensure or certification as a Medical Massage Therapist may vary by location, so it’s crucial to check the regulations in your specific area.
