A Rewarding Career

in a Growing Field

RMT Education that Meets the Highest National Standards

At Vicars School of Massage Therapy, you will get a massage therapy education that meets the highest national standards—on a schedule that fits your life.

Our 2200-hour massage therapy program will prepare you for a successful massage career no matter where you live or how you want to learn. We offer both full-time blended-learning and full-time daily classes.

Our blended-learning classes require you to be in a classroom four days a month for intensive, hands-on instruction. Outside of these class dates, you will work from home, following our exclusive materials online on the Moodle platform. You can choose between monthly or weekly classes and between our campuses in Edmonton or Calgary—whichever is the most convenient option for you and your family.

This flexible schedule means there’s no need to relocate to pursue your dream of becoming a registered massage therapist (RMT). Our Calgary massage therapy school is located in the northwest in the Country Hills area. Our Edmonton campus is on the south side on Calgary Trail, just north of the Edmonton Commons shopping district.

Our program follows the highest Canadian massage therapy education standards: we have full accreditation status from the Canadian Massage Therapy Council for Accreditation. Our instructors are successful practicing massage therapists who bring real-world experience to the material they teach. Small class sizes and custom-made learning materials mean you get plenty of personalized instruction, and all the support you need in and out of the classroom.

At Vicars, you’ll also get real-world experience beyond the classroom. At our supervised public clinic, you’ll practice your massage skills on a variety of clients, while learning what it’s like to work in a professional massage therapy clinic.

We are continuously improving our curriculum and teaching methods based on the latest research and changes in the massage therapy industry, so you can feel secure that your training will prepare you to pursue a rewarding and successful massage career. Vicars School of Massage Therapy is a Massage Therapist Association of Alberta (MTAA) approved program.

Financial Aid is available to those who qualify.

What our
Graduates Say

Even after a busy day, I leave work so happy because I know that I’m helping so many people. I learned so much about myself while I was at MH Vicars. Between when I started school and when I finished, I gained so much more confidence: not only in my work, but in myself.

Emma Johannesson2017 graduate

I’m not much of a classroom person – I find it hard to sit and listen to a lecture. So the fact that it was only four classroom days a month worked really well for me. It was hands-on and I got to learn a lot of information in a short amount of time, and then take it home and digest it myself and reread. That setup worked really well for the way that I like to learn.

Karen Goforth2017 graduate

I was working full-time and had kids. When I found out that Vicars had a weekend program, I knew that I’d be able to continue working while I was in school, which was key for us.

Jenna Kluthe2017 graduate

I’m proud to be a graduate of a school with a curriculum that placed me miles ahead of other schools’ graduates in term of knowledge, skills, and professionalism.

Burhan Imamwerdi2017 graduate

MH Vicars School prepared me amazingly. Great hands-on education rather than just textbook knowledge, plenty of practical work, and experience with real-life conditions often found in the massage field.

Samantha Marriott2016 graduate

It was a very positive, life-changing experience. The material provided me with the knowledge and skills to make me feel very confident in my practice. The instructors really knew the material and were invested in each of us.

Monique Krushelniski2013 graduate

MH Vicars School prepared me fully for my career as a massage therapist. We learned anatomy, practical massage, the emotional component of working with people, business management, administration and so much more.

Henriette Smith2015 graduate

The flexible schedules allowed me to raise my young family and still attend full-time school. MH Vicars has amazing teachers, and their extensive knowledge of anatomy, physiology, and conditions gave me a skill set that has made me the massage therapist I am today.
