Hiring a Sutherland-Chan Grad

"Having had different massage therapists in my clinic, I have realized that graduates from Sutherland-Chan stand above the rest."
    - Sam Abbruzzino, Chiropractor
Sutherland-Chan School & Teaching Clinic has been in the business of training professional massage therapists since 1978. We are widely acclaimed as one of the best massage schools in North America. We take pride in our graduates and believe them to be the finest massage therapists in the field.

"I would like to personally recommend and congratulate Sutherland-Chan's graduates for their exceptional skills, professionalism, and expertise. They have been a great addition to Vision in Green's team of qualified professional stress management providers. I will continue to utilize the highly skilled professionals from Sutherland-Chan in my future business dealings."
    - Angelita Elliot, Visions in Green
Our two-year program is known for its academic rigour and for the extensive clinical experience we provide our students. They begin treating the 'well' public in Student Clinic in the second half of their first year and continue with weekly Student Clinic shifts until they graduate. In Year II, they also gain tremendous experience working with many different types of people and conditions in our Outreach program, both at our school and at hospital and agency locations. The Outreach program provides massage therapy free or at cost recovery to clients who are not likely to be able to access it otherwise. The benefit to students, in addition to exposure to many physical conditions they would not ordinarily encounter in Student Clinic, is in building their confidence and versatility as practitioners.

Our graduates have also consistently excelled in the Ontario certification examinations and are preferentially hired by many employers.

"We at Natural Health Massage Therapy feel a special connection to Sutherland-Chan graduates. We get excited when we see Sutherland-Chan education listed on a resume because, to us, that means the applicant has received quality training and proper instruction. We have enjoyed all of our working relationships with Sutherland-Chan hirees and look forward to future opportunities to hire more."
