Certificates and Diplomas

One Year Certificate

OVCMT has created a program that will train the spa practitioner to be more knowledgeable about specific applications and contraindications and therefore elevate the service provided to the public. Graduates will have a skill set that matches the spa industry's needs that is very much in demand. This course of study also allows the student to return to the three year massage therapy program if at some time his or her career aspirations change.
