ABOUT THE PORTAL

Massage therapy schools teach essential but foundational skills — but we all know the real education begins in practice. And once you’ve been practicing, whether it’s only been a few years or many decades, you find gaps in your knowledge or areas of passion that you’d like to grow. That’s where THE PORTAL comes in. We’ve created a space to access all the knowledge that doesn’t fit into a standard LMT curriculum. Learn how to be exceptional in your practice and grow your business with us!

As we all know, the journey to helping others begins within our own beings. Together, through THE PORTAL course offerings, we will create a strong practice in being in reciprocal relationship with clients through non-judgments, strong core ethical values and compassion, and cutting edge techniques based on the most recent scientific breakthroughs in human anatomy, physiology and energetics so that we can create a valuable exchange in which both client and practitioner receive the optimum benefit. Working within your own being first will allow you to make the changes you can leverage to best support others. Welcome, and together, let’s change the world!
