Cannot recommend enough. For the future therapist who is holistic minded, has a passion for the welfare of others, wants to learn from those who are knowledgeable and dedicated to staying informed of emerging research/techniques, would like a community to grow with and be supported by, and is looking for a program that is strong in anatomy, pathology and treatment oriented influence. I began my practice immediately after graduation and have been blessed to have the education I received at Berkana. They are wonderful at helping you identify your strengths and passions, and then encouraging and supporting the cultivation of how that will look in your practice. Dedication to ethics, integrity and upholding the respect of this profession is strictly adhered to, but also taught with compassion and grace.

As a firm believer in the power of touch and the bouquet of wellness benefits it provides, my quest for THE best massage school in the world led me to the Berkana Institute of Massage Therapy. I am beyond grateful for finding this life changing and beacon of excellence in the realm of massage therapy education. The curriculum at Berkana is nothing short of comprehensive. Classes are not just lectures but immersive experiences, where learning extends beyond textbooks to hands-on practice and experiential exercises that foster development and comprehension of intuitive abilities. The support and camaraderie I found among my peers, along with extensive alumni outreach, and the guidance and mentorship from the dean and faculty, have been instrumental in my personal and professional growth. I carry the utmost pride in being a Berkana graduate and know I received and continue to receive the best mentorship and education out there.

Strong massage foundation and deep dive into human anatomy! Hi everyone who is reading it! I graduated in June,2023 and started working as a massage therapist almost immediately. If you are looking for a strong massage base with a great open-minded blend of Eastern science and Western wisdom - Berkana Institute is the right place for you. I committed all my time to studying and have seen everything what was promised come true: appreciation of clients, colleagues, great money, great opportunities. I’ve been working less than a year now, found a job straight away and my colleagues immediately treated me with respect and were curious about techniques and amazed with my anatomy knowledge (I never studied anatomy as deep as in Berkana Institute..that was one of my highlights there. And Cadaver lab! Every bodyworker MUST HAVE this experience in life!!!). I showed up in a massage scene as a strong practitioner: immediately started receving great reviews and great tips from the clients. They just love the technique, it is different. The institute also is teaching the highest standards of ethics of the massage world, which is important - my practice showed that even a “100-year-experienced” massage therapist can often lack the understanding of basics which we are taught naturally at the Institute. Whether you want to focus on relaxation massage or willing to dedicate your life to post traumatic recoveries - the foundation you get in Berkana is enough to get you the strongest start possible. I know we all are different, but if you are ready to study and apply the knowledge you get in Berkana Institute - you’ll successfully be set up in the world of bodywork. That’s for sure! Lots of Gratitude and Appreciation to Ms.Berkana who shared her techniques which made me feel like an exceptional practitioner! Sharing this review with lots of “I” sentences not to brag but to share with you that I am a real person who went through the program and feel on top afterwards!! I hope my review can help someone make the important life-changing decision. Good luck! Love. Peace. Critical thinking. ❤️ 🙏 🧠
