Our story
Evangelical Massage School was founded on the belief that healing touch is a sacred calling — and that excellence in the healing arts glorifies God.
"Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men."
Why we exist
We exist to train massage therapists who are technically excellent, ethically grounded, and spiritually rooted. Our courses equip massage therapists with the clinical skills to build lasting careers — and the character to serve their clients with integrity and compassion.
Nestled in the mountains of Copperhill, Tennessee, our school is more than a place of learning. It is a place of formation — where therapists discover not just how to enhance their massage career, but why it matters.
Our foundation
We believe healing is a gift from God. Our environment integrates clinical excellence with a faith foundation that shapes how therapists approach their work and their clients.
We hold our therapists to the highest clinical standards. NCBTMB-approved continuing education, small class sizes, and hands-on instruction ensure every graduate is truly prepared.
Massage therapy is a ministry of presence. We train therapists to see the whole person — body, mind, and spirit — and to bring genuine care to every session.
Our mountain setting is intentional. The peace of the Ocoee River valley is part of the learning environment — a daily reminder that restoration begins with stillness.
