Moreover, massage therapy has more than 80 different specialties referred to as “modalities.”2 Many massage therapists are trained in several modalities which calls for education in different techniques. Whichever techniques you choose to train in, you will also likely have general courses to study as well. The courses often include anatomy and physiology, pathology, ethics and hygiene, kinesiology, and applicable business courses.
