About AIM

Do you want to

• Bring all of yourself to your career, mind, body, and heart?
• Earn your living with Right Livelihood, work that deeply reflects your values?
• Help people relieve their stress and pain?
• Increase people's sense of health & wellbeing?

If the answer to any of those questions is yes, consider the Ashland Institute of Massage for your massage therapy training.

The Ashland Institute of Massage is a small massage therapy school with a big vision: to educate hands, heart, and head for a holistic integration of Self and skills. We are one of the best massage therapy schools in Oregon and on the West Coast. If you are looking for a massage therapy program where who you are is as important as what you learn, then AIM may be the massage therapy school for you.

Ashland Institute of Massage is one of the premier massage schools in Oregon. Founded in 1988, we are celebrating over two decades of providing excellent massage therapy training and producing superb massage therapists. We offer a comprehensive therapeutic massage program, aligning students with the direction the massage industry is headed and  preparing them for successful careers in this field.   We pride ourselves on providing students with superior academic preparation, hands-on instruction, and a high level of individual attention.

The Ashland Institute of Massage is licensed by the Oregon Department of Education as a vocational school and is certified in Oregon, Washington, California, and Georgia as meeting (and significantly exceeding) the educational requirements for massage school training in those states.

Our massage students come from all over the United States. While the majority of students are from Oregon, people have moved from Maine, Vermont, Kansas, Arizona, Utah, and Washington to complete their massage training at AIM. Our course hours meet or exceed the requirements for licensing in 31 states, although each state has its own specific licensing process.
