Massage therapy offers many benefits (physical, mental, emotional) for clients. As a Christian consumer I would prefer a massage therapist that isn't into "energy work", "Reiki" and other things that clash with my personal belief system. As a Christian, when I attended massage school I encountered quite a challenge. My instructors were all into energy work, pagan meditations, massaging the aura, and things like that--things that did not jive with my religious beliefs. If a Christian student is not well-grounded in their faith, I believe one's faith could actually be damaged in going through regular massage school, as participation in the pagan stuff was mandatory for graduation! That is why I now teach at BHHEC's massage therapy school.
