I.P.S.B. - International Professional School of Bodywork, San Diego Ca., (858) 505-1100, Massage Therapy, Holistic Health Practitioner, Continuing Education, Asian Healing Arts, Holistic Bodywork.

IPSB is very pleased to announce that we have been accredited by the Commission on Massage Therapy Accreditation (COMTA).

Our accreditation has been granted for a five-year period. This is great news for all of us, and we are very excited to have accomplished our goal to become accredited. The school has been working on the accreditation process since January 2007. This process involved many steps with the preparation of many documents about IPSB curriculum, student body, financial and operational policies and procedures. These were submitted to the Commission and reviewed in person by the Site Visit team in July. The Site Visit team was very impressed with the school, our faculty and student body. All of these were instrumental in helping COMTA to approve IPSB for accreditation.

Being accredited will make IPSB eligible to apply to provide Title IV financial aid. This is another approval process that will take a while to complete. We will keep you posted with updates as we have more information.
