Massage Schools

	At Bancroft School of Massage Therapy, we take great pride in being one of the oldest and most active schools in the training of professional massage practitioners. Bancroft School of Massage Therapy was established by Henry LaFleur in 1950. We took what we already knew how to do, teach massage, and brought it to the animal world. We will continue the tradition of providing first class massage therapy training to individuals that have a calling to work with animals. In our animal facility, Doggone U, we offer 200-hour Certification Programs in both Small Animal and Equine Massage. We also offer many workshops for pet-owners and continuing education for massage practitioners.
	Massage Awareness offers training in both Equine and Canine Massage. Both courses are a combination of home study and hands-on training. Each course calls for 1,000 hours of study time and hands-on practice (about 50/50). In addition, continuing education courses are offered for those who have graduated from either program. Each course includes a manual, a DVD, workbook, posters and other related books.
	Northwest School of Animal Massage features three levels of training for Maintenance Massage, Performance Massage and Rehabilitation Massage in a flexible online and resident training format. We also offer workshops for pet-owners and continuing education. Check out our new business workshops designed to help animal massage practitioners advance the success of their practice.

	PetMassage™ Training and Research Institute has many facets from training students the professional aspects of canine massage, teaching dog owners to include PetMassage™ as part of the daily care of their pets, teaching children PetMassage™ with animal handling and safety skills, and publishing books, DVD’s and CD’s under the name of PetMassage™ Books. PetMassage™ is a world renowned school in canine massage that helps students learn a safe, gentle and energetically perceptive form of canine massage and to create successful businesses in their communities.
