NHI Studio City Campus Massage School Wall of Love

I knew immediately I wanted to enroll at NHI when I visited! The teaching is excellent and they’re really supportive of their students and the learning experience. I just started 3 weeks ago and I’ve learned so much

I had an amazing experience with amazing instructors, and mentors. If you are considering this school and this career path... Do it!

I highly recommend going to NHI for your massage therapy needs! I've been going to NHI on and off for several years. The massages I got there exceeded my expectations. I remember feeling surprised that they're students --they seemed very experienced and knew exactly what to do. My muscles were worked on, just like they needed to be. The therapists taught me the name of the muscles that I was having an issue with. I feel grateful for the attention to detail that my therapists gave me. The atmosphere was very serene and comfortable.

HaPpY Birthday 2 Me Ova gave me an incredible massage today, my only 2 regrets are 1. I cannot request him in 2 weeks when I return. 2. I cannot take his fingers home with me so that I don't ever have to be in pain. Congratulations to all of the students for their hard work, dedication and commitment to better health. The instructors must all be pretty amazing, to produce such great talent. I will always support your clinics and invite others by sharing with them. UPDATE: I think The young ladies name was Mika today who gave me a great massage, She listened to my needs and addressed the areas that needed the most attention. She was professional and had a great spirit. I wish her success in her very bright future. I have always had great massages at National Holistic both Los Angeles and Emeryville. Once in Emeryville I was really looking forward to my 1st Tandem massage. The man at my feet was amazing, and I had to have him change positions with the woman who clearly didn't know what she was doing. Not such a good experience. However, my massages and both my guest that I introduced to the school's massages have all had wonderful experiences. I just wish for today that you were open.

Ever so grateful for the opportunity to attend and graduate from NHI. The courses available propelled me into a career that allowed me to become a successful therapist but to also to pursue my own business. The mentors encouraged success at every level. I am a graduate from the ANMT program creating wellness together with each client.

I had the great opportunity to be invited to give a demonstration of my lineages fascia activation and conditioning. While that was exciting in itself, what was more exciting, and. inspiring were the students and the staff. The students: warm, engaging, respectful, passionate about their learning. Amazing. The staff- dedicated and passionate about how they can best empower their students towards their dreams with a very solid education. In my humble gong fu opinion. 谢谢🙏🏼 Thank you NHI for sharing this slice of heaven. Thank you Dr. Emily and Casey for your generous curiosity and brilliance.

Great place to go to school and they give the best massages at the massage clinic 5 star service

I enjoyed my time in NHI. I just had to leave school due to life struggles. The classes there are some of the most fun that I wish other schools can learn from. I wish everyone working in NHI is happy and is well slept haha.

This is an AMAZING place to learn how to be a great massage therapist. Great atmosphere, Great people, Great instructors, Great experiences, Great environment. 100% recommended!!

I can’t believe it’s taken me 10 years to write a review! I went here from 2015-2016 and loved every minute. I was well trained and hit the ground running upon graduation. 10 years later I’m still doing what I love and I’ve hit several of my goals. Thanks NHI for the fantastic education!

Very professional and welcoming school full of positive energy. 2 years post graduate and massage has been one of the best experiences I have done. Being able to work at spas and events for school like conventions, marathons and camp. I will always recommend NHI Studio City

READ THIS If you are a MASSAGE THERAPIST ready to advance your skills or a US VETERAN looking to step into this field NHI is built for therapists who want to take their practice to the next level and advancing the craft of bodywork with depth, precision, and passion. I recently attended a CE workshop at NHI’s Studio City campus, and it was an absolute game changer. The instructors are highly knowledgeable and take pride in the art of advanced studies. They guide you toward a deeper understanding of the body, movement, and pain management in ways that will immediately elevate your practice. Cynthia Ribeiro, the instructor for my workshop (The Enigma of Hip Pain), is legendary in the world of Neuromuscular Therapy. Her ability to break down complex anatomical and biomechanical concepts into practical, hands on applications is nothing short of magical. She gives you tools that transform the way you work. Alicia from Sacramento Campus and Sequoyah from Studio City campus, assisted during this workshop and the trio made neuromuscular heaven! NHI is dedicated to education that goes beyond the basics and into true mastery. The school fosters an environment of curiosity, growth, and professionalism that every massage therapist should experience. I walked away from my CE class feeling more confident, empowered, and excited about my future as a therapist. And now? I’m already signing up for as many classes I can, because the instructors are passionate and that is hard to find. And for my fellow VETERANS… NHI makes the transition into this career seamless. Their VA Certifying Official, Katie Locke, is absolutely wonderful and a pleasure to work with. The school accepts GI Bill benefits ( for their Core, ANMT and AA program), because they are an accredited institution. The process is super easy, and Katie has been fantastic in answering all my questions and making sure I had everything I needed. If you’re serious about investing in your education and longevity in this field… whether you’re new, experienced, or a veteran transitioning into massage therapy, NHI is where you want to be. Stop wondering and go experience it for yourself. It’s worth it.

NHI has an amazing massage program and I’ve been able to connect and learn from so many talented massage instructors. You want a great experience and great foundation your massage career this is the place.

A wonderful place to learn Massage Therapy. The staff is amazing at giving guidance and teaching knowledge that a massage therapist needs to know.

I’m a junior ;) and so far, I’m having a great experience!

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Kenyia during my admissions process, and I cannot say enough good things about her. She was incredibly helpful, personable, and knowledgeable, making the entire experience smooth and stress-free. Kenyia truly knows her job and goes above and beyond to assist prospective students. Her professionalism and kindness made me even more excited to join this school, knowing that it is represented by someone as amazing as her. If my experience with Kenyia is any indication of what’s to come, I know I’ve made the right choice.

School expands good energy, and staff is friendly and knowledgeable in their field.

Great place to find family. Staff is amazing, always willing and able to provide any help needed. I highly recommend this institution to anyone on the fence. Thank you NHI for all you do and all that you are. -Angel

NHI's dedication to providing a supportive and inclusive learning environment stood out. They empowered me to explore a wide range of holistic modalities and wellness practices. NHI cultivates a culture of academic excellence and hands-on real-world learning. NHI equipped me with the practical skills and knowledge needed to thrive in the field of holistic health and wellness. Overall, the National Holistic Institute's steadfast commitment to holistic education and individual growth positively impacts the lives and careers of its students, nurturing a community of passionate, skilled professionals dedicated to promoting health and wellness.

NHI is a place where everyone is able to show up as their best and highest self and unapologetically come and be as they are. I found the environment to be accepting, compassionate and full of very passionate, knowledgeable staff. NHI provided me with many tools to help me better care for people on a much more deep and profound level with the holistic approach in the Core Massage Therapy Program. I went on to complete the Advanced Neuromuscular Therapy (ANMT) Program which gave me the ability to work smarter instead of harder.

My time at NHI so far has been filled with guided explorations, passionate teachings, and paradigms shifts. I look forward to the second half of my training and the new connections I’ve yet to make.

NHI is an amazing school . Highly recommended. All the team is super professional and always available to make sure you succeed in your journey as a massage therapist.

NHI - Studio City has been nothing but amazing. I have felt comfortable from the beginning and I’m so excited to continue learning.

I love NHI. Staff (Instructors, mentors, admissions) have been so thorough in setting us up for success and maintaining strong communication. Everyday I am surrounded by positive energy and guidance. NHI delivers a quality curriculum and several other learning opportunities (workshops, events, clinic experience, externship, etc.) They truly immerse you into the world of Massage Therapy so students can explore every avenue/modality and gain insight of where they want to take their career. I am so grateful for my experience with this campus.

Massage school has been my first positive experience with school. I am always excited and looking forward to coming to class because of all the wonderful individuals I have met. The space that the staff and students at NHI have created is something so special that I believe cannot be found on any other campus. I am blessed to have had this opportunity to meet a beautiful family that I can learn and grow with. Thank you! :)

The best choice I have ever made. This school has a positive environment, great teachers, and work with you the whole way. Ontop you are pretty much set to have a job before you graduate or immediately after. NHI is the school to attend hands down.

My experience has been really great from day one. Walking into the institute and getting to know all the staff and really feeling welcomed like a family was very rewarding. And also attending the school thus far has been amazing. You learn so many different skills and techniques that can be applied in any areas of your life. The positive space created before each class really opens your mind and heart to receive. I highly recommend this institute to research and experience.

Where to begin? I first found out about NHI just by seeing an ad on Instagram. I filled out my info and about a day or so later one of the recruiters contacted me and that’s when my life changed. The process of getting started was so easy. The academic / financial advisors were extremely helpful. I’ve always been interested in massage and now that I’m in the program I’m sad I didn’t get started sooner. I love that we get hands on experience and we are being taught by actual therapist. All the of the teachers are available and active with each and every one of us. I love my classmates too. Overall such a great experience and I’m thankful to be able to have this experience :). If you’re considering joining this school , this is your sign to stop thinking about and just do it!

I appreciate from the beginning, I wasn’t badgered, harassed, or being sold on something like a lot of private institutes. Everyone is very genuine and accommodating. I learned so much just in the first 3 days. I’m glad I followed through with my decision to attend.

Being in NHI changed my mind and the way to look at the career. The teachers have a lot of knowledge, and I learned and still learning a lot. I'm so proud of being part of this institute.☺️

I am a current student at NHI, about to complete my first semester. I cant believe how much I have learned so far. The teachers and staff are all friendly and knowledgeable, all are massage therapists also. Learning here is literally hands on, from the very first class! I am having a great time at NHI, networking with classmates and mentors. We have practice clinics where we can practice on clients, I definitely feel like I am in the best place to prepare for a career in massage therapy.

I came to NHI to follow my passion and take control of the direction of my life. And what I have gained so far has been so much more than I ever imagined. The student culture is one that is kind and welcoming, the teachers are so well equipped to support a wide variety of learners and the material is vast and nuanced. I can feel my knowledge expanding with every class and I have already grown so expansively in just the few months I have been here. If you have been thinking about joining NHI, take the leap! You will not regret it :)

I absolutely love attending school at NHI! All the teachers and mentors are very attentive. Everyone is friendly and very helpful. I can wait to see where my new career takes me! NHI is definitely the place to be!

It has been an amazing experience coming to NHI. Highly recommended!

Great school experience. Very knowledgeable instructors and amazing classmates to work on and learn from! :)

Excellent for pain relief

Very welcoming and open , administrators/staff will guide you every step of the way to fulfill enrollment and ensure you reach your career goals .

When I came to NHI, I felt inspired by the core program, but I was afraid to enter the field. I decided to continue on through their Advanced Neuromuscular program to help build my confidence. To be honest, I hated the extended program at first. I considered quitting many times, but thanks to my mentors and friends, I felt inspired to continue. I am so grateful that I did. I became a better therapist because of this program, more importantly, I think I have become a better person. More caring and compassionate, more patient with my self and others. I have learned to be a better part of my community, and I love the work I do to give back to the world. If you’re thinking of joining, I promise you it’s not a waste of time. You get what you give, but if you choose to push through the challenges, I promise the people and the program will help you discover a part of yourself you didn’t know you needed.

This school is very hands on learning. Instructorsw are very helpful . Also they encourage you to do better and get you help when needed.The school and people are very nice and helpful!!!

I am in love with this school! I started my Core program this January, and in just 2 months I can tell that I’m a completely different person. First of all, the curriculum is great, and being very methodical and analytical person who prefers to take in the information from A to B to C, I really appreciate the way the material is presented, structured and explained in both practical and theory classes. Teachers and staff are extremely nice and helpful, and what I love is that they will take their time and make sure you understand everything while being very understanding with you. Hands on experience is like no other! Love clinics, where I get to massage customers and get feedback that I need while in school. On top of that, I already started my externship with spa, which is amazing, considering that 2 months ago I had no experience in massage at all. This school really makes you go into the real world and get as much hands on and networking experience as possible. The energy of school is so welcoming, I wish I could live here. I have met so many great people! Can’t imagine what it will be like by September, when I’m supposed to graduate, looking forward to this moment while I enjoy every single day spent here. Highly recommend to anyone who is considering massage therapy as their profession.

I have been attending NHI for almost 2 months now and I am so impressed with how much useful knowledge I've learned already. Also, I love that we started practicing body work almost right away. The staff has been so kind and helpful, and they always make the class fun! Looking forward to the rest of my time here.

Enrolling at NHI has been the beat decision I have ever made in my 35 years roaming this planet. The teachers love what they teach and are constantly learning themselves. The students are, for the most part, compassionate, helpful, generous, and entertaining as heck. I cannot imagine a better place to learn a career that will actually provide what the motto promises: have work you love. This place is like Hogwarts, but for massage, and is just as magical and whimsical as can be achieved in this reality. I LOVE NHI TILL DEATH!

I've been to several vocational schools including one being a massage therapy program. None of them compared to my experience at NHI. The Mentors and staff care about your paid experience and education. Every instructor pushes you to be successful and prepares you for your future of massage.

So i just received a myofascial release session with Lou from studio city, amazing session. highly recommend getting a massage from him.

I have been receiving massages at “THE NOW” along Ventura Blvd. After a couple months, I finally asked my Massage Therapist where he was trained and he told me, NHI on the corner of Vineland and Ventura. I went there to check it out and attended their open house. I felt at home. I could feel the closeness and good camaraderie among the students. Now, I am one of their students. Although I already have a career in nursing, I felt as though having massage therapy skills, which I love, would be something I look forward to everyday. I love receiving massages. My classmates can attest to that as I always ask for more even when the session is over. The instructors and staff at NHI are awesome. They are all very welcoming and approachable. I am very appreciative of their dedication. They are very supportive toward the success of the students. They constantly check on us and give us updates about our current curricular status and are very accommodating. For example, if any of us find ourselves in financial difficulties, and can't afford to buy food, NHI has a shelf full of dry goods for any of us to eat. Additionally, our school is well known at sporting events. Recently, my instructor organized a volunteer massage for the runners at the LA Marathon. I experienced it firsthand, it was fantastic to be able to help the athletes, and they were very appreciative. I cannot wait to have a private practice of my own and be my own boss!

Wonderful service I love that restaurant

I have always had great massages at National Holistic both Los Angeles and Berkeley. Once in Berkeley I was really looking forward to my 1st Tandem massage. The man at my feet was amazing, and I had to have him change positions with the woman who clearly didn't know what she was doing. Not such a good experience. However, my massages and both my guest that I introduced to the school's massages have all had wonderful experiences. I just wish for today that you were open.

I’ve had a great experience at NHI. I’m had way through my Junior year and have learned so much from anatomy, kinesiology, deep tissue, body mechanics, Swedish massage and the list goes on. I’ve enjoyed have different teachers to get different perspectives and techniques. I highly recommend this program for anyone looking to start their massage therapist journey!

I came as a client to the massage clinic and I was very pleased with my massage! I honestly think this is one of the better massages I have had professionally. My massage therapist student was checking in with me about pressure (which I really liked because I feel rude asking for more pressure more than once). I asked her to focus on my neck and middle / upper back and usually when I ask this, the therapist will spend maybe 5 more minutes there. But she truly focused on it and I feel much better. The atmosphere was a bit awkward, but that is part of it being for teaching students. As a side note to anyone with sensitive skin- they told me I can bring my own lotion / oil for them to use next time! They use unscented lotion and I didn't have an issue, but its nice to know its an option!

I loved my experience at NHI! The teachers are really knowledgeable and have varied experiences to give you a well rounded education and direction for your own focus! Thank you NHI!

This is my school and I love it here. You can't find this kind of community anywhere else. Everyone is friendly and more than willing to work with you and eachother. As far as Massage Therapy we work on the community which prepares me greatly and the quality of touch that I give and receive from my classmates is something that I can't find just anywhere else. The learning experience is fruitful.

I am still early on in my training at NHI but was such an easy process to get information and enrolled. Jenna the admissions worker is so nice and helpful, let me go on a tour of the location and was so willing to answer many questions over email. Everyone is so nice so far and am looking forward to the rest of my experience here!

NHI is a school where you will gain so much knowledge and a short amount of time . The staff is SUPER knowledgeable about massage therapy and just the industry in general. I’m so glad to be learn from some of the most experienced and passionate people at this school. With that being said, I know I will become a successful massage therapy and succeed in the field of massage.

I feel like I finally found a safe place to learn that is filled will kind, helpful and understanding staff. My group has become a new part of my family and friends and I am thankful to be a part of this amazing place!! GOO HERE!
