Although being an institution of higher learning is impressive in and of itself, that’s just part of what the New School of Massage has to offer those lucky enough to love in Chicago.  It offers workshops and classes open to the public and offers massages at a deep discount.

Frugal Delights

What keeps people coming to the New School for Massage is not the excellent facilities or instructors – it’s the chance to get a deep tissue body massage for half price.  Although some people refuse to let students touch them, there are still many tense Chicagoans who love to get massages from the students at the New School for Massage.  You do have to book an appointment for the type of massage you want.  Everything from Swedish to specialty massage for very expectant mothers are offered.

There are also special discounts and combined offers for steady customers of the New School for Massage’s students.  Very often, you can get another massage at an even cheaper price if you make another one within a certain time frame.  Check the New School for Massage for exact details.  And if you are too wary of letting the students work on you, sessions with the instructors are available, but at a higher price.

Workshops

The New School for Massage offers many workshops in subjects somehow related to massage to massage and healing.  For example, the courses offered for this year include CPR and Introduction to Massage.  This are usually all day affairs with a lunch break and often gives you some hands-on experience.  They are usually less than $100.

The School

And, if you’ve guessed by the name, the New School for Massage (which only opened its doors in 2002) is an accredited school for professional massage therapists.  It is recognized by the state of Illinois as a school that meets or exceeds their standards.  The undergraduate program, to help you pass your national certification exams, is about 600 hours long.

In addition to the workshops open to the public, there are special post-graduate courses and those for medical professionals.  These include such diverse topics as Indian head massage, Zen facial massage and aromatherapy.  The New School for Massage tries to limit classes to a mere twelve students in order to give intense training.  They are very proud to boast of a graduate employment rate of 98.1%.  In 2002, the Chico Tribune listed the New School for Massage in their “Chicago’s Best” list.
