Imagine

Imagine a place where learning is not limited to the mind, where to understand a subject means to embody it, to experience it with all your senses. A place where your whole being is part of the process of growth and learning. A safe environment where you can be true to your feelings and be supported by a like-minded community. A place where you can listen and be listened to, where you can touch and be touched, move and be moved. IPSB is such a place. Here you can follow your heart's desire, reconnect with your own healing power, and rediscover the magic of your self. School has never been so exciting; learning has never been so much fun! There is so much more to massage than rubbing muscles, and there is so much more to the study of humanities than books and lectures. At IPSB, body, mind and soul merge. Now, bodywork means to facilitate growth, change, and healing; and the understanding of humankind comes from knowing the whole self.

Since 1977 IPSB has built a reputation for excellenc

e in massage and bodywork education. IPSB graduates are recognized as highly skilled practitioners and professionals in the healing art of touch. Employers prefer IPSB graduates because of the depth of their training and the quality of their touch.  IPSB was founded by pioneers in the field of massage and bodywork, and today our faculty continues to push the boundaries of somatic education. IPSB educates the whole person: body, mind, and spirit. At IPSB you are not just training for a vocation - you are engaging in personal transformation.

In 1996 IPSB became the first massage school in California to offer Associate’s Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in somatic massage and bodywork. And the Structural Integration program at IPSB is among the finest in the country.
