Arkansas Massage Schools - A list of massage schools in Arkansas

The state of Arkansas requires that a massage therapist be licensed and certified. Applicants for a massage therapist license must now pass the MBLEx which has replaced the NCETMB. The MBLEx should better measure the qualifications of the massage therapist in pursuit of licensure. In addition, you must take and pass the Arkansas Law Exam AND a 150 question written test covering Anatomy and Physiology. This test consists of multiple choice questions, true/false questions, and massage anatomy charts that have matching exercises.

If you are still in massage school or have just completed your course, you will benefit greatly from our MBLEx Practice Exams. Study online with over 2900 massage questions ranging from massage laws and ethics to massage assessment and pathology. Each massage exam comes complete with rationales for every question so you learn from your answers whether they are correct or incorrect.
