We recommend courses such as Reflexology, Stretching and Joint Mobilization, Aromatherapy, or coursework from the evening program. Please check the catalog and meet with the registrar to discuss your long term planning. While at the Desert Institute, students are required to receive two professional shiatsu treatments per trimester. Receiving professional shiatsu treatments is an essential learning experience for all shiatsu practitioners, not only in school but also in professional practice. In addition, by receiving these treatments, students will begin to add shiatsu to their own personal care programs and they will be able to communicate better the benefits of shiatsu to their clients and to the general public.
Tuition is subject to annual increases.
Contact school for current tuition rates. Tuition and fees are due and payable the first day of class. One-third of the tuition may be paid at the beginning of each of the first three trimesters. One-sixth payable the first day and beginning of the eighth week of each trimester. The following items are purchased separately by the student and are given as approximate costs for the year.
