Starting with just two students in Kansas City, Missouri, the school was born of the belief that nurturing touch could have a profound effect on the wellness of our society. Over the 27 years since then, WellSpring has grown from a humble one-room classroom into one of the most diversified and best respected health and wellness schools in the country, complete with degree, certificate and continuing education programs across four different disciplines of Massage Therapy, Fitness Training, Nutrition and Wellness Coaching, and Medical Assisting. But where we have not yielded an inch is in our belief in the powers of human touch, and the importance of treating the whole person, not just their symptoms.
