Ashmead College - Seattle, WA

Ashmead College was founded in 1974 as the Seattle Massage School. As an avenue of personal health care, massage was still very much a fringe discipline. The school continued as a small but highly regarded post-secondary school dedicated to giving aspiring massage practitioners both the technical and philosophical grounding to succeed.
