Continuing Education
DSM offers continuing education in order to present a holistic approach to learning. Accupressure, Sports Massage, Deep Tissue, and Centering Techniques for Body/Mind are available to take separate or with the full program at a later date. Courses are individually priced according to length, design, and purpose. Special guest workshops, certification programs, and other continuing education options are also open to graduates and professional massage therapists.
Guest speakers from all over the world have presented on a wide variety of subjects at DSM. Curriculum, special electives, continuing education, programs, and dates are subject to change. In the event that school is closed due to weather conditions, students and workshop participants will be informed.
The Downeast School of Massage is approved by the National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork (NCBTMB) as a continuing education Approved Provider.
