The test is a multiple-choice questionnaire. Please note, that detailed explanations within the instructional video , as well as the supportive materials, actually contain answers to the test questions. Watch the instructional video at your leisure, practice your new skills with friends or clients, then complete and send your exam and three client treatment evolution forms back to us in an envelope supplied by us.

Please note that this home program is different from our other instructional video programs because it contains a presentation of four different orthopedic massage protocols: for knee, shoulder, lower back and neck, and upper back. Also, this program includes rehabilitative exercise for each region. You must practice all the mentioned above protocols on three different persons separately. You are allowed to perform all the protocols on the same person. However, you can do different protocols for different people. What is important is that all the 8 protocols (hands-on and exercises) be implemented 3 times each for a total of 24 practical educational sessions.

Also, to obtain credit hours, the duration of each hands-on protocol should be no less than 35 minutes and the duration of each exercise program should be no less than 20 minutes. There is no limit of times to retake the test within the 6 months time frame. You will be notified by mail or e-mail of your test results within 10 working days. Upon successful completion of the course, we will mail you the Certificate of completion and, if required by your state, we will notify the State Board of Massage Therapy of your completed credit hours.
