Our goal, as a team at ACC, is to provide you with the skills required for you to gain entry into this field and provide your clients with professional ethical care in massage therapy.

The Massage Therapy Academy is within the Health Professions Institute at Austin Community College. We are glad that you are taking the time to look into your future in Massage Therapy here at ACC. In just a few short months, you can be working in the career of your dreams as a Licensed Massage Therapist. Feel free to browse though this site and learn more about our state-of-the-art training program.

This program is based on the belief that humankind has a natural drive towards human interaction and balance, and that the body has its own movement towards this balance in its environment. Successful interaction with one's environment implies active involvement and adaptation. One learns to interact successfully as a massage therapist through "the use of hands as they are energized by the mind and will, with the gift of intuition" for exploration, manipulation, and emulation, all necessarily involving activity. This learning requires time, energy, attention, and nurturing.
