Mascot
Choosing a massage therapy school is about more than choosing a program. It is also about finding a place where you feel comfortable asking questions, learning new skills, and growing into your future career.
Every member of our team plays a part in helping students feel welcome, supported, and confident as they work toward becoming Licensed Massage Therapists. Our admissions counselors help prospective students make informed decisions about attending school. Our financial aid staff assists students in understanding funding options they may qualify for.
Our student advisor, student records department, and administrative team help students register for classes, monitor progress, choose electives, prepare for graduation, and stay on track throughout the program.
Our retail team helps students find the supplies they need to study and practice their craft, including massage tables, linens, lotions, oils, tools, school apparel, and other helpful items. Our maintenance team works hard to keep Irene’s clean, comfortable, welcoming, and ready for learning each day.
Career Services continues Irene’s commitment to students after graduation by offering lifetime job placement support, licensing guidance, career fairs, and employer screening in line with ethical employment and fair labor standards.
Together, these dedicated team members help make Irene’s a place where students feel supported, encouraged, and part of a caring school community.
