Don't fall for it

by massagestudent

First off, if you check other sites with reviews by "Jenitar26" or a similar screen name, you can clearly tell from the thumbnail that it is a lady who works in the school's office.

Don't be swept in by Kristen Enns trying to sell you on small, intimate classes. I was promised 8-12 students AT THE MOST and showed up to orientation to find 30 students with 8 more added later in the month.

Some of the technique classes are great, but business class includes TWO WEEKS learning to write resumes and thank you letters (I guess for those students who never went to middle school english class)

Teachers do not enforce any rules, there are constantly students talking throughout class so that it is impossible to hear or focus.

Overall, you learn some great info, but are constantly harassed to pay more money, accused to missing classes and having to pay to make them up (don't say anything about that when they try to recruit you). And keep in mind, whatever number of days per week they say you are going to be in school, ADD ONE for the last 2-3 months of school when they make you work for free for paying massage customers.

• Pros: some good teachers
• Cons: lack of organization, ridiculous class assignments

Best Massage School in the Midwest

by jenitar26

MTTI-WellSpring is the best natural health and wellness school in the Midwest. They help you find a job after graduation, hire only instructors who are experts and working in their field, and the administrative staff really cares about the students. In addition, the school is accredited by ABHES, which requires the highest of education quality. I would highly recommend MTTI-WellSpring!

• Pros: Fantastic instructors, accredited school
