Words as evidence will have to suffice in place of hugs that would follow the tears of pure joy and wonder that I shed.

 "I was not initially intending to become a massage therapist. I simply wanted a change in my life. I was dying standing up and unhappy. I was looking for a place that would support my own growth and awareness and I found it at the Florida School of Massage!? I had been a career educator since 1974 and when I started attending the Florida School of Massage, I was so impressed! I realized that this is how school is supposed to be done! I've now been a practicing massage therapist for 13 years and it's the longest I've ever done any single continuous thing in my life. This program was a lifesaver for me!"
-- Frank Merillat LMT
