The Center For Therapeutic Massage School (CTMS) was established to educate students interested in mastering the techniques of deep tissue / athletic massage. Since its formation, the school has been dedicated to providing the highest quality training in the art of therapeutic massage.

CTMS was founded in 1995 to help fulfill the explosive demand for professional massage therapists skilled in the art of deep tissue athletic/medical massage and in the deeply relaxing classic massage of the Swedish. The core of our students' massage training, in fact, is the skill they acquire in the art of providing a classic Swedish massage. The instructors then build upon this foundation of learning until each student achieves the level of skill required to meet our high standards of professional massage.

The Center for Therapeutic Massage School offers a 600 hour program designed to enable graduates to work anywhere in the state of New Jersey as a massage therapist. CTMS is approved by the New Jersey Department of Labor as a vocational school. We are also reviewed and approved by the New Jersey Department of Labor.

The growth of massage therapy has been phenomenal. Demographics such as an aging population and greater attention to one's own personal well being have created enormous interest in the pursuit of alternatives to improve health. Massage is very high on the list of many that seek these therapies.
