I want to become a massage therapist? Where can I go?

[Day-nuh]

I know I need certifications, but how long does that generally take and where can I go to get an accredited certification? Do I have to go to school for years? Or is there a shorter course I can take?

Thanks in advance for you answers! ^.^
your* answers. Lol.

Massage is not therapy. Therapists have master's degrees, which takes 6 years. Massage PRACTITIONERS go to technical school for 6 months to learn nonsense like this:

"By connecting deeply with a patient while doing CranioSacral Therapy, it was possible to contact the patient's Inner Physician - an image, a voice or a feeling. Usually once the image of the Inner Physician appeared, it was ready to answer questions about the underlying causes of the patient's health problems and what can be done to resolve them. It also became clear that when the conversation with the Inner Physician was authentic, the craniosacral system went into a holding pattern..."

Yes, this is one form of nonsense taught in massage school. You will be laughed at and considered a stupid prostitute if you massage. If you want a respectable profession look into Physical Therapy Assistant instead.
