Ashmead College of Massage Therapy - Seattle
About The College (Seattle Campus)
HISTORY & FACILITIES
Ashmead College was founded in 1974 as the Seattle Massage School. The school was launched by a group of self-described "hippies" who wanted to offer educational alternatives to the mainstream health-maintenance doctrine. As an avenue of personal health care, massage was still very much a fringe discipline.
The school continued as a small but highly regarded post-secondary school dedicated to giving aspiring massage practitioners both the technical and philosophical grounding to succeed.
As the public began embracing massage more, branch campuses were opened. In early 1999, the school assumed the name of Ashmead College, to reflect its evolution to one of the premiere providers in health and wellness education in the United States. The name Ashmead College also fit a much broader geographical area and allowed Ashmead to open campuses outside of the immediate Puget Sound area.
For Ashmead College, the vision has broadened from being a premier provider of massage education, to creating and defining the premier provider of health and wellness education on the West Coast.
