Colorado Massage Schools & Requirements

Known for its breathtaking mountain scenery, Colorado provides the perfect backdrop in which to attend massage therapy schools. Its vibrant cities, like Denver, Colorado Springs, and Boulder, offer an array of entertainment and fine dining, while its quaint mountain towns boast a laid-back feel. In a state rich with history, you’ll find everything from authentic mining towns with saloons and pharmacies; to adobe and stone villages that date back more than 1000 years. When not studying massage therapy, students will have a wealth of recreational opportunities at their fingertips. Popular activities include hiking, mountain biking, horseback riding, and white-water rafting.
