The therapeutic modalities we explore during the 800 hour and 625 hour full time intensives are swedish massage, shiatsu, polarity therapy, deep tissue structural integration, kneip hydrotherapy and spa treatments, sports massage and injury recovery, neuro-muscular therapy and reflexology.

Attention is also given to herbs of the southwest, homeopathy, kinesology, full training in anatomy and physiology, and orthopedic assessment; all modalities are taught as part of a holistic healing approach. Arizona School of Integrative Studies continues to expand the number and range of its educational programs making it one of the finest Arizona massage schools today.
ASIS Philosophy
The intent of the staff at the ARIZONA SCHOOL of INTEGRATIVE STUDIES is to provide the space and education necessary for their students to become massage therapists and body workers. Massage has been used throughout history as a treatment for pain and disease. It promotes circulation of blood, lymphatic flow, muscular relaxation, a greater base in standing and moving, and increased sensory awareness. Through the practice of massage, we can also become aware of ifestyle and psychological patterns which may be causing or perpetuating painful and limiting ways of being.
In this education, we offer a full-time, transpersonal training dedicated to the whole person. In a retreat-like environment, students are invited to take the time and space needed for deep learning to occur. We explore human anatomy and physiology, hydrotherapy, and a wide variety of massage modalities, all while heightening our sensitivity to the human soul. In a safe, supportive, yet evocative setting, we wish to prepare students to meet the challenges they will face as contributing members of the health care system.
Within this framework, we explore the various ways that learning can take place. We offer a variety of feedback opportunities for students to learn how they best learn. A blend of kinesthetic, audio, and visual tools are available to encourage insight of each individual's learning process. Our small classes allow for students to receive ample attention from our dedicated staff. Teachers in the program bring decades of experience in both bodywork and facilitation to their students, and every effort is made on the part of the faculty to provide students with a rich and diverse learning environment. It is our belief that when various dimensions of personal experience are allowed expression, personal and collective development are enhanced. So, we are all each others teachers and students.
We are dedicated to the path of world peace, compassion to all living beings, and to honesty. We believe that it is essential that our work be nonviolent in nature, and that the goals of learning and therapy be those of the student rather than the teacher. In keeping with this belief, it is the school's philosophy that there is a direct correlation between how we view ourselves and how we view others. So as we increase the awareness and kindness with which we meet ourselves, physically and psychologically, we enhance the sensitivity and kindness with which we meet our families, our communities, and our clients.
We are happy that you are considering massage in your life. When offered in a caring, mutually respectful environment, we have found massage therapy to be a very nourishing practice that helps promote health, understanding, acceptance, and peace.
