SOHMAR School of Holistic Massage & Reflexology

Mike has skills! One odf the best therapists I have encountered. He knows anatomy very well, is always on time and completes his sessions with suggested exercises and other strength building/​injury prevention training if so desired.

This is for the student massage clinic. I called to make an apt. A day later someone named Mike called me back, he said he was the owner.
I’ve never been there before and wanted to know if they are accredited by any agency. Mike said I was «BEING REALLY PICKY FOR A STUDENT MASSAGE.»
Whoa, OK. Not a good sign. I won’t go there. (they are not actually accredited by anyone)

I have attended nail school, esthetics school and now massage school. I was really nervous when choosing a massage school, since I had not had great experiences with nail school or esthetics school. Two friends had attended SOHMAR and loved it so I decided to give them a try. SOHMAR was by far the best experience of all the schools I attended! I left school feeling prepared not only to take and pass the state exam (which I did) but also to work in a spa with confidence. The teachers listened to my needs, gave me the tools I needed to build a great clientele, and taught in a way that no matter your learning style you got it! I have been out of school about a year now, and I am so thankful To SOHMAR for everything they did to help make me a great massage therapist.

In my case, along with many others, the main reason for switching careers is to find fulfillment in an industry where you can be happy and pay the bills. When I decided to go back to school for massage therapy, I didn’t necessarily know what I was getting myself into, but I feel like I hit the jackpot by choosing SOHMAR for my education. I couldn’t ask for a more knowledgable and enthusiastic staff, and the best part is not only are they well versed in massage therapy and the related fields, but they honestly care about each and every one of their students and their individual experiences and journeys. I was extremely well prepared for the National Certification along with being assured and ready to venture out on my own as a therapist. If you are looking for a nurturing school with all the tools to help you achieve confidence and expertise in massage therapy then SOHMAR is the school for you!

I’ve been getting massages from Mike for well over 5 years. He does an excellent job of getting to know you and what you’re looking for in the massage. He really understands athletes, the demands they place on their body and the work they need done. He’s also built a reputable and quality massage therapy program. At times, I’ve gotten a massage during a student clinic — for a lesser price but still the same quality approach. I can’t say enough good things about Mike and his team.

Wonderful massages and wonderful school! If you are looking for a great massage come here. If you are looking at a career in Massage Therapy go here. I felt very confident after I finished school here going into the career of a Massage Therapist!

I’m going to go ahead and say out loud that there’s no better gift than a gift certificate to get a massage. Think about it.
I redeemed my gift certificate a year after I had gotten it for a gift. Not sure why I waited so long. My sister always raves about her massage sessions with Michael at SOHMAR and I was lucky enough to experience his talents.
It was my first time seeing him so he took the time to get to know me and see what I needed work on. I was in an accident 2 years ago and he made sure to pay the correct attention to my injuries. Michael does a great job with conversation because he leaves it up to you whether or not you want to talk during the massage.
The massage was great! Perfect pressure and amount of time spent on different areas. I will definitely be back!
Now take your time getting up and be sure to drink lots of water!
