Our New Core Curriculum
The integration of multiple bodywork modalities is one of the characteristics that distinguishes a career at the New Mexico Academy of Healing Arts.
We train therapists to consider each client’s treatment holistically, and to have a range of bodywork solutions that they can apply in a single therapy session, or in a course of long-term treatment.
Offering greater options to our students will prepare them for a lifelong and ever-expanding career in bodywork, and they , in turn, can provide clients with treatment that is more sympathetic to their clients’ needs.
Due to the success of our of our unique Massage-Somatic Polarity Dual Program, we have added four other bodywork modalities to our Core Curriculum.
Core Curriculum Choices:
Massage Therapy
continues to be the most competitive and well-known bodywork modality. Students are highly encouraged to create a program of study that includes massage therapy as its foundation.
Somatic Polarity
Somatic Polarity Therapy is a comprehensive healing modality that combines deep physical and energetic work to create ease and health in the body, mind, and spirit.
Craniosacral Therapy
focuses on the body’s craniosacral system which is made up of the cerebrospinal fluid and fascial membranes that surround the brain and spinal cord and their connection with every structure in the body.
Ortho-Bionomy
Working with the nervous system, the practitioner tunes to the client’s comfort and the self-corrective reflexes. As a result, change can happen from the inside out.
Reflexology
is an ancient art that involves stimulating the body’s own healing mechanisms by applying compression techniques to reflex points on the hands and feet.
