Studying at this school has been one of the best experiences of my life. It is not just a massage school — it is a place where we learn how to truly help people with stress, relaxation, and muscular issues. They also offer many important courses such as lymphatic drainage, facial cleansing, and they will soon be opening more programs. Thanks to the training we receive here, we can build a strong career and work almost anywhere in the world with our license. Being a professional in this field is something very valuable and a huge source of pride. The price is very reasonable for the excellent quality of education. We truly have some of the best teachers in the world. They love what they do, you can feel their passion, and they support us every single day so we can grow, learn, and succeed. The administrative staff is also wonderful; many of them speak Spanish and always help us when we need it, especially those of us who come from other countries or speak another language. Their support makes a huge difference. I want to give a very special thank-you to Sandy Cook, the Campus Director. She is amazing — always focused on helping us, sharing advice, experiences, and motivation. She constantly looked for ways to support us with classes and resources in Spanish. I also want to express my deep appreciation to the teachers who have made an impact on my journey: Charlie Witsie, whom I admire so much because he inspired me and taught me that age or language are not obstacles to achieving our dreams. Peter Castellano, Yesenia Almodóvar (who speaks Spanish 💕), Cleveland Glover, Tiana Allman, and my dear friend Jehiel Barreto (who also speaks Spanish). I also want to include a special thank-you to Celine Carnevale, Shon Jackson, Devin Guerreri, John Lenois, and Yarielis Alamo, who have all been part of this amazing experience. And of course, I cannot forget to thank all my classmates. We created such a beautiful friendship. They always helped me with the computer and assignments, and there was always great energy among us. I love all of them so much, and they will always have a place in my heart ♥️. I recommend this school 100%. It is truly a place where lives are changed.

I just Graduated the Massage Therapy Program! My experience here at Cortiva Institute in Cromwell exceeded all my expectations. The environment here is built first and foremost on the foundation of respect and care for you as a person! The amount of care for you shows Immediately, starting with your interview and tour of the facilities with the Admissions Representatives. The Instructors are Amazing. I received the best from my instructor's day in and day out! They 100% facilitated my success, making sure that I was reaching my highest academic potential. The coordinators in the back offices are also all involved and instrumental to the success of every student. A Big Thank You to the Campus Director for the Wonderful Team she put in place here at Cortiva Institute! You all truly prepared me for my success in my new career!!!
