Mission
It is the mission of Sacred Roots Massage School of Montana to create ethical and competent massage therapists who provide a safe and non-judgmental environment for all clients. We instill the deep sacredness, innate wisdom, and diverse knowledge of the healing arts into each heart and mind that is ready to root into the fertile soil of self awareness and personal growth. We strive to bring embodiment to the body-mind connection, healing our world through the power of touch.
