Massage Therapist Night Program
The 702 hour Massage Therapist Night Program is completed in 12 months, meeting
Mondays through Thursdays 6:00pm — 10:30pm. Completion of the Massage Therapist
Night Program qualifies the graduate to sit for the National Certification
Examination, and fulfills the educational requirements for massage therapy
licensure in the state of West Virginia. The Massage Therapist Night Program
integrates three areas of study: development of knowledge and skills;
professional preparation; and development of self understanding and awareness.
During the first week of classes, students are introduced to sensitivity and
perceptivity training and learn proper body mechanics to minimize stress during
the practice of massage. With this foundation, students move through the program
to become sensitive, competent, professional massage therapists.
Throughout the Massage Therapist Night Program, the student is offered a
comprehensive, intuitive approach to the following massage modalities and
subjects: Anatomy and Physiology; Kinesiology; Pathology and Fragile Care
Massage; Swedish Massage; Deep Tissue Therapy; Neuromuscular Therapy; Seated
Chair Massage; Esoteric Anatomy and Bodywork Theory; Hydrotherapy; Clinical
Practicum and Integrative Massage; Successful Business Practices and Research
Methodology and Awareness Skills. Please see our Description of Lessons page for
more information on our programs of study.
Massage Therapist Night Program Tuition Costs
The cost of the Massage Therapist Night Program includes textbooks, a MSSM polo
shirt for Student Clinic and student liability insurance with ABMP. Upon a
student’s acceptance into the program, a $500.00 deposit, to be applied toward
tuition, is required to confirm their seat in the class. If payment is made in
full two (2) weeks in advance of the start of class, a $200.00 discount will be
applied to the total tuition. Tuition may also be paid over the course of the
program through in-school financing at 10% interest. Should this method of
payment be chosen, an additional $500.00 is due the first day of class with the
balance paid in six (6) monthly payments.
Financial assistance may be available to those who qualify through the West
Virginia Workforce Investment Act administered by the West Virginia Job

may be available through the Sallie Mae Student Loan Program. In the near
future, financial assistance may be available to those who qualify through Title

MSSM graduate or MSSM instructor, for which there is a fee set by the individual
massage therapist (approximately $50-$55). Lodging, meals and personal expenses
