Florida Massage Schools - A list of massage schools in Florida

The Florida Board of Massage Therapy requires that you must be at least 18 years of age and have completed an approved massage course of at least 500 hours or an approved massage apprenticeship training program of at least 12 months. The state of Florida also requires a massage license applicant to take and pass a 2 hour prevention of medical errors course.

Before a Florida massage license is issued, you must also pass the National Certification Examination for Massage Therapy NCETMB and MBLEx. The NCETMB and MBLEx will need to send your results directly to the Florida Quality Assurance Board of Massage Therapy.

The best method for preparing yourself for the NCETMB and the MBLEx is to practice with our massage testing application that is loaded with over 2900 massage based questions just like you will find on the NCETMB Exam. You can track each massage exam for review and watch as your cumulative scores go up. Each massage question comes complete with rationale so you understand why the correct answer is correct.
