Went there and the massage was supposed to be 55 minutes, was only about 40 or less, no routine at all they just start wherever they feel like, felt exposed, they do not know how to put the blankets or tuck them in, didn't even do half of my body. The lady didn't even ask questions or talk at all. Was a very awkward massage.

The massages are very well done and everyone is very friendly and professional. Everyone I have talked to at this school is knowledgeable and all seem to love what they are doing!

Worst school I've ever been too. The owner Dave is so unprofessional and only cares abiut money he will double dip from you if he sees the chance. They can't even keep teachers in the school it runs so horribly. The day signing up they will sweet talk you until youre done but coming into class is a completely different story rules change every day the clinic is a mess i will never reccomend this school to anyone!

I have had several massages at their clinic. All three times the students were concerned with my satisfaction and comfort. Each LMT student were well on their way to a promising career
