At Precision Wellness, our vision is simple: Leave people better than they came in.
Our Massage Mentorship Program is a 900-hour, hands-on training pathway for individuals who want to become Licensed Massage Therapists through a structured apprenticeship-style program approved through the Missouri Board of Therapeutic Massage.
This program is designed for people who are serious about learning the art, science, ethics, safety, and real-world practice of therapeutic massage in a supportive, professional wellness environment.
This is not a quick training, job shadow, or casual internship. This is a guided licensure pathway built around education, supervised hands-on practice, professional standards, client care, documentation, and personal growth.
The first Precision Wellness Massage Mentorship Program begins in October.
Because this is a high-touch mentorship program, we are only accepting 4 apprentices at this time.
The Precision Wellness Massage Mentorship Program includes 900 total hours of education, supervised instruction, hands-on practice, clinic experience, and professional development.
