Massage Therapy
Massage therapists enjoy a number of benefits in their careers. They are able to help clients directly through therapeutic touch and may work either as individual practitioners or with a larger organization or spa. From creating relaxing environments for clients to helping athletes stretch their muscles, massage therapy is more than just going through the motions. Our Massage Therapy program in Tucson can be completed in as few as nine months and helps prepare you for the Massage & Bodywork Licensing Examination (MBLEx).

Medical Billing and Coding
Since much of the U.S. healthcare system relies on insurance, it’s vital that doctors’ offices are able to communicate with payors. Medical billers and coders help translate treatment plans performed by doctors into standardized language—or code—that can be understood by insurance carriers and other physicians through electronic health records. A Medical Billing and Coding program in Tucson may be a good fit for someone who wants to work in healthcare without needing to interact with patients frequently.
