Washington Massage Schools - A list of massage schools in Washington

A minimum of 500 hours from an accredited school is required in order to obtain a Massage Therapist license. The State also requires a jurisprudence (Law) exam (located at the end of the application) along with proof of passing the National exam regulated by the National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork. The state of Washington now accepts the MBLEx certification as well as the exam from the NCBTMB. The new MBLEx is administered by the FSMTB and is given at Pearson Vue testing centers. The new MBLEx exam is in direct competition with the NCETMB so it is likely the state will accept both certifications for some time.

Massage-Exam.Com will help you prepare for your end of term exams and the national exam. If you plan to have dual licenses for Washington and Oregon, our site will help you with the Oregon Exam and Practical as well. Our database of over 2900 question in massage application, massage assessment, body systems, pathology, business ethics, kinesiology, anatomy and physiology will help review your massage curriculum. To suite your needs, you will have access any time, day or night. Each graded question gives you rationale and the ability to return to and review every test you take.
