After meeting the requirements for graduation from Body in Mind Massage Institute, the School issues a Certificate of Completion. Throughout the final semester of the program, you will be prepped for the MLBEx, State of New Jersey massage therapy licensing exam, which starts the process of becoming licensed by the State of NJ. We offer coaching so you may confidently take and pass the MBLEx. We’ll also assist with navigating through the State’s licensing process, career placement and continuing education courses for maintaining licensure.
Earnings potential for a Licensed Massage Therapist is $30 – $50 (or more) per hour massage (including tips.) Full-time LMTs work 25-30 massage-hours per week, and part-time therapists even less. All shifts are IN DEMAND. You could be earning $750-$1,000, or more, each week, once you are licensed. Many massage therapy employers offer their full-time therapists added benefits such as paid time off, health benefits, and signing bonuses. Our Graduates usually recoup their tuition investment in about three months of working full time as a massage therapist!

Read this successful student’s story…
I am more confident & believe wholeheartedly in my abilities as a healer
“As the months passed I got deeper and passionate into learning what has been on my mind since enrolling and getting into massage now I can list off various modalities I have experience in and just chatting with my classmates about techniques and other aspects, it's awesome. It’s like learning fun facts along the way that will stick with you as long as you’re still in your own body. To anyone considering enrolling, I will say this was the only school I wanted to go to, to learn Massage Therapy. Instructors are here to support you no matter the intensity, as long as you ask. Last regret anyone should have is not listening to your gut and realizing how life could've been if you took the leap. If it’s been on your mind more than 3 times… Just Do It. See where it takes you after the first step, have fun, learn and know the people next to you are with you every step too.”
