Director's Welcome

All of us at the Body Therapy Institute are here to support your professional and personal growth, development and evolution. We offer you a 250 Hour Massage Practitioner Program, a 550 Hour Massage Therapist Program, and a 1000 Hour Holistic Health Practitioner Program. We have been licensed to operate by the BPPE since 2010, (formerly CPPVE and BPPVE since 1985) in compliance with California standards. Our programs focus on daily life practices, mind/body healing, and professional practice building.


I invite you to experience a personal tour of SBBTI to learn about course schedules, program options, payment plans as well as meet our staff and students.  If your interest is bodywork, I encourage you to create the space and time to develop your capacity.  It is a joy to offer you an education of great quality that will give you the understanding and skills to offer your clients the gift of healing for years to come.  

Relaxation be with you,

~Kathleen Mickey, Director
