Costa Rica School of Massage Therapy Certification

Be willing to grow out of your comfort zone! Immersion in a foreign country at an accelerated learning pace calls for one to be able to embrace and adapt to challenges. With that said; the skills, character, and sense of community one develops by going through this program is second to none. This is a truly incredible experience for anyone interested in learning massage therapy while experiencing “Blue Zone” lifestyle in a tropical paradise! Rana 2023

I was lacking in my traveling experiences until CRSMT. This was a wonderful place to begin opening up my horizons. However, it wasn't without it's challenges: spending all day outside (in shade), no AC (optional up-charge), separated from family/home, travelers sicknesses, lots of memorizing, a few 11hr-ish days of classes, sunburn (if you're not careful), and many mosquitos! The things I loved there most was the friendly community. I never felt any judgement for speaking my broken Spanish, in fact sometimes the locals would help and teach me a few words here and there. There are plenty of places to find food including farmers markets, grocery stores, small local venues and many restaurants. There are two pharmacies in walking distance as well. You're a five minutes walk from the beach. Being able to look around during classes enjoy the beautiful green nature and the animals that would travel though was a pleasure. This course was very fast paced and intense but having this program while in Costa Rica made it feel like a retreat from normal hectic life to vitalize for my future. It also helped highlight all the things I'm grateful for at home.

Crsmt was without a doubt a place you go to show yourself you can do hard things. I have loved my time here and the memories I've made. I loved the acceleration and sometimes wish if could go on longer because I'm sad it's over. Looking back I didn't know I had that much in me. I didn't know how much I was capable of and I now i do ♡
